BIOGRAPHY

Gil Riego Jr.
Lover.
Fighter.
Photographer.
Birth • 1983
Film SLR • 1995
Digital SLR • 2006
Estimated Death • 2073 (Death by sacrificing myself to the Zombie apocalypse to have my friends and loved ones survive)
I've been capturing moments for more than half of my life. I've been aware of what I'm capturing for half of that.
Trained in the mean streets of the San Fernando Valley, and applying it to the meaner streets of San Francisco, I capture life at every moment I can. From my Nikon D90 to my iPhone 3GS and whenever I have film for my Polaroid 600, Polaroid 420 Land Camera or Fuji Instax 210.
I have 3 Associate Degrees from Pierce College (Liberal Arts, Journalism, Photojournalism) and currently attending San Francisco State University for my BA in Journalism with an emphasis on Photojournalism.
I currently freelance for the SF Weekly and The Bay Citizen.
