MATADOR Y TOROS

Most importantly Matador y Toros is the voice and the eyes of people who seek something more than your typical mainstream lifestyle. Not that we are against mainstream, but we want something different. We dedicate ourselves to photograph some of the most unique parties in Los Angeles and capturing the essence of the people who attend these gatherings. It is the fashionistas, the musicians, the artists, the drunks, the pretty, the ugly, the smart, the creative, the crazy, the shy, the bohemian, all colors. We believe that there is a special movement happening in Los Angeles and we want to be part of it by documenting the process. Matador y Toros is Geraldo Acuna and Aaron Solorzano, both coming from film background. We have produced short films and video installations, as well as music videos. We wanted to use our knowledge in both, film and photography, and develop a website that speaks for people like us. We want to be able to represent L.A. from the eyes of our peers as well as our own. In other words... we're just a quiet voice telling you what you already know in bullshit terms.
