The works of photographer and artist Mario de Lopez encompasses commercial and fine art photography as well as video commissions. He specializes in art, design, architecture and portraiture projects. Developing a personal artistic vision, Mario has consistently created evocative images that demonstrate his love and commitment to the medium and its evolving nature. His images always convey a deep interconnection between people, places and the fleeing moment.
Mario has been widely published worldwide and has exhibited several fine art series in his career; among them several nude studies and a twelve-year boxing series that focuses on the struggle of the amateur boxers living and training in the city of Tijuana, Mexico. The boxing portraits have been selected yearly as part of Los Angeles Latino Heritage Month celebration and published to a greater audience. In addition, Graphis publications have selected images from both the nude and fashion series to be included in their prestigious annual hardcover books.
A graduate of Art Center College of Design in Pasadena California, Mario brings a higher level of professionalism, experience, artistic commitment and respect to his craft on all projects. He’s always very excited to collaborate with multiple talents and clients to bring a project to life. And whenever possible, he teaches photography to diverse communities of young photographers and artists in the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
