Oscar Calleja comes from a small village in northern Spain, where he was brought up by parents who were both artists and businessmen, immersing him in both worlds from an early age. Growing up, he experimented with various forms of artistic expression, from painting and sculpture to music and dance, before finding his way to the camera.
Seeing an opportunity in the fashion industry, he began working as a studio assistant in Madrid. It was here that he discovered the invaluable opportunity to learn from seasoned photographers by assisting them. For the next seven years, he worked on a myriad of productions, ranging from haute couture editorials to international advertising campaigns.
Throughout this period, he built up his portfolio, gradually moving from fashion photography to still life photography, a discipline in which he feels truly free to represent the beauty and essence of everyday objects and fashion accessories.
Finally, he decided to strike out on his own and put an end to his role as assistant to devote himself full-time to his passion for creating captivating images.
