About
Studio photographer based in Los Angeles and Orange County, California specializing in Beauty, Cosmetics, Jewelry, and special projects for global brands.
Key brands I have been working with recently, include Lululemon, Urban Decay, Hourglass Cosmetics, Nike, Converse, Kate Somerville, Reverie, Jaxxon, Good American, Ranavat, Valde Beauty and many more.
Hi, I'm Ricardo Lozano, and I'm glad you're here. I got my start in studio photography in 2010. Since then, my work has taken me all over the country before settling down in Southern California. In my spare time I enjoy drumming, skateboarding, painting, and making short films. When I'm not in the studio I'm at home with my family, hanging out in the garden.
Together with friends, I created A Love Token Press (ALT), an independent publisher of art and photography. In 2020, I opened A Love Token's studio for photography commissions and art projects. In 2022, the space is booked for photo shoots as well as very limited private events in Huntington Beach, California. I have a traditional approach to my photography but my experience in design and art direction allows me to pull from a wide range of disciplines. I'm shooting skincare and cosmetics full-time, but am always interested in new creative endeavors like spirits and hospitality.
