Hey! My name is Angel Osorio. I am 27 years old and am based out of Los Angeles, Ca. I have shot weddings, family portraits, babies, maternity, events, concerts, conferences, creative, head shots, apparel etc. My strongest field is portraiture. I pride myself in making people feel beautiful and confident. Now that we have all of this out of the way, here's my story.
Okay, so this whole shindig began 5 and a half years ago at a church in need of a photographer. I was always drawn to photography but not being able to get my hands on a camera really made it hard for me to grow this unknown talent. I mean, I would take pictures with my iPod and what not and put filters up the butt to see what I could pull out, but who didn't do that. So, I got my hands on a Nikon d50. (I know) Boy, what a challenge. This is when I learned to shoot manual, since everything I would shoot was for the youth service and it was always dark! I'm not gonna lie, it got hard. Really hard. But, I was determined to make our ministries photos look stunning. So, I begin with the obvious, YouTube tutorials. One day I was asked to shoot a retreat we were going to be having in Humelake. During this time my friend had just bought a Nikon d3200. When he got his camera, man, did I feel left behind. So I did the most logical thing anyone can do. I dropped $1500 on a Sony a57. Yeah, we learn from our mistakes. I did love that camera though. And it did teach me so much since it has a live viewfinder. It allowed me to see what I was doing as I was doing it. It helped me uderstand what exactly was happening inside of the camera. Oh, and if your wondering why i spent $1500, I started my credit with this camera and I also bought accessories. I started looking at SLR Lounge and Phlearn on Youtube. They really got me addicted to photography. I began to learn everything. I think my biggest bump was when I switched churches. I started attending Fearless LA. I was surrounded by so many talented people! I began to shooting more and more and my passion grew greater and greater. Most of my portfolio is actually full of people I met at Fearless. Its crazy how far God can take you when you step out in faith where you feel He's calling you to. But anyways. All this leads us here. And after making you read my life story you might as well just contact me because you're already so invested. But seriously. I fell in love with making people feel good about themselves and how they look. There's no room for insecurities when you shoot with me. So get ready if your even considering.
I hope you got a taste of how I got to where I am, my personality and my passion. Hope to hear from you.
