Whether he’s photographing gang life, a fashion model, Dr. Dre, or an Inked Girl there is a voice in his work that is distinctly LA bred. His photographs have been featured in INKED, Complex, GQ, Rolling Stone, and dozens more. He is currently releasing his two new books titled LA Portraits and LA Woman 2. estevanoriol.com
