Paolo Artymiak was born in the Philippines until moving to New York at the age of 7. Living close to an urban environment such as New York, style has always inspired him to continuously search for the newest trend.
Graduated SUNY at Albany with a BFA, the arts has always inspired him to look beyond just the facade and took up photography during university.
Having enlisted in the military, he moved to San Diego at the age of 23 and pursued photography to its fullest. This also created an opportunity to travel to Europe and experience first hand European fashion which enabled him to really see fashion in a very different light.
Attending Academy of Art in San Francisco where he is currently based, photography has continued to thrive on the west coast.
Inspired by New York and European trends with Southern California shine, this combination of styles allow for versatility in every condition.
