SPOTLIGHT: PHOTOGRAPHER

EMILIO RAMOS INTERVIEW BY: PHILLIP DIAS JR.

My name is Emilio Ramos, I am a photographer from Los Angeles, California. I live in the city of Venice Beach, which is the coast of Los Angeles. I go by as Epicz or Epicz Photography but I prefer just Epicz because it stands for Emilio Pictures (E) (Pic) and I added the (z) just to make it look fancy. I have been shooting for at least 3 years. I shoot all kinds of genres of photographs but I personally love to do portraits of lifestyle or grunge. My goal as a photographer is to travel the world, I love to explore and see new things and meet new people. I want everyone in the world to see what I see through the lens I shoot. I also love music, music is a big important to my life, music helps me in my photographs, when I take pictures and when I edit pictures. Photography, Traveling and Music is what I love the most and I hope one day I can make a career or do something that involves in those three. Instagram - @epiczphotography
