Castro Frank is a photographer, born and raised in Los Angeles. His style fuses a journalistic approach with an artistic eye to create imagery that is raw and speaks powerfully of our time. Rather than leaning toward voyeurism, the subjects in Castroâs work are actively engaged, inviting the viewer into a rich, personal narrative. He has a unique ability to capture the dignity and humanity of these downtrodden, often forgotten individuals with an artistry and composition usually reserved for high fashion. The resulting images are a place where grit and beauty coexist. The impact of this juxtaposition is both unexpected and profound. Castro turns his lens towards systematic and societal issues that plague our nation i.e. homelessness, prostitution, poverty, drug abuse, and the plights of immigrants here in America.
