Born and bred in the Westside of Los Angeles, Estevan began his career as a hip-hop club bouncer turned tour manager for popular Los Angeles-based rap groups Cypress Hill and House of Pain. After developing a passion for photography whilst travelling the world and encouraged by his renowned photographer father, Eriberto Oriol, Estevan began documenting life on the road and established a name for himself amid the emerging hip-hop scene.Estevan Oriol, director at ALTERED.LA, comments: “I was introduced by my manager to Marcos and after meeting him and talking to him I felt it was the right place for me to be. I’ve been wanting to direct commercials for a few years now. My Family, friends, my car club, and the people of L.A. have made me the shooter I am today, I take my style everywhere I go in the world and shoot different cultures with that influence. I am looking forward to my next venture with ALTERED.LA. Marcos Cline, executive producer & Founder, at ALTERED.LA, speaks on the new signing: “You can count on one hand those at the forefront of bringing Mexican-American culture to the mainstream and that includes Cheech, Danny Trejo, George Lopez, and Estevan. His work has inspired a whole generation of artists, from filmmakers & photographers, to muralists and tattoo artists, he’s a cultural icon. I cannot overstate how important his impact has been so it’s important for me to offer him a platform through which he can bring his years of experience and his authentic aesthetic to brands. Curiously, his work will be familiar to many for it is used as references in agency boards and director treatments more often than I can remember.”
