About the Photographer - Jonathan Friolo

Los Angeles based photographer Jonathan Friolo grew up influenced by Transformers, Saturday morning Kung-Fu movies and building epic Lego creations. He developed his keen eye through formal art training, but honed his photographic skills on the mean streets of Hollywood. A harden photojournalist with numerous battle scars, yet a constant optimist in the toughest situations. Never one to feel limited, he lives by the motto, "To hell with circumstances, I create opportunities."

On his free time he enjoys the inspiration of his beautiful family and maintains an open mind to the world. He's an avid reader of internet wikis, a constant observer of the eclectic, and has a penchant for ramen in LA's Little Tokyo.
