Estevan Oriol is hailed as the eye of the new wave Latino aesthetic. Coming up from the streets and the Hip Hop scene, his rough and ready images of his neighborhood homies caught the attention of major media and music players. Oriol has since been commissioned by Nike and Cadillac, as well as directing music videos for Eminem, Linkin Park, D12 and Xzibit. He began taking pictures of his neighborhood and low-rider culture and soon discovered his incredible talent for capturing raw street life. He is now one of the most sought after photographers in the urban community.

I’ve been inspired by his work enough to start my own portrait photography journeys, thus the antcipation for this book was huge and I was certain that I will get the real deal. Indeed I did – the beatiful hardcover is excellent from the very first page. Estevan introduces the images with a full page review behind the history of it all, and then let’s the photos speak for itself. The women are georgeous, and mr. Oriol uses his camera to present all sides of the seductiveness. The book is a timeless piece of a segment in the American cultural history, a great example of Life Photography.
