About LA Lens

LA Lens Photographer

Hi, I'm Alex Chen, the eye behind LA Lens. Born and raised in Los Angeles, I've always been captivated by the city's diverse landscapes, vibrant culture, and the stories of its people. My journey in photography began over a decade ago, and since then, I've been on a mission to capture the essence of LA through my lens.

My work has been featured in publications like National Geographic, LA Weekly, and Visit California. I've also had the privilege of showcasing my photography in galleries across the city.

What sets my work apart is my ability to find beauty in the ordinary and extraordinary alike. Whether it's a sunset over the Pacific, the bustling streets of Downtown, or the quiet moments in hidden neighborhoods, I strive to create images that evoke emotion and tell a story.

When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me exploring new corners of the city, trying out the latest food trucks, or volunteering at local animal shelters. I believe in giving back to the community that has given me so much inspiration.

Let's create something beautiful together.
