Oliver Villegas
London based photographer with background in design and visual production. With an interest in Street, Portrait, Fashion and Boudoir photography.
Along 8 years I have been exploring and doing various types of photography from landscape to photojournalism to documentary to fashion & portraits and have been priviledged enough to be published by magazines and newspapers such as Applepie, NAKID, NIF, Public House Magazine, The Mail Online & the Daily Telegraph.
I have also participated in various exhibitions such as AOP awards (finalist), Urban Photography awards (winner), Mexico en una Imagen (winner), SNWP (highly commended).
Most recently I have participated as assistant and creative with TIH models, an up and coming model agency dedicated to help people in street situation by building a bridge between them and fashion brands.
I currently work as a freelance collaborator for Public House Magazine and Tequila & Mezcal Festival.
