José Tió
Photographer / Art Director
—————————–
José Tió is a Peruvian-born photographer whose work blends timeless elegance with fearless contemporary expression. With roots in Fine Arts, Graphic Design, and Advertising, he began his career in Lima as an art director before expanding his visual language in Barcelona through digital arts and photography.
From a young age, José viewed the world through a lens—always carrying a camera, capturing emotion, beauty, and truth. Though trained in design, photography became his true calling. In Barcelona, he transitioned fully into photography, bringing his art direction experience into the realms of fashion, portraiture, and visual storytelling.
He has photographed renowned figures including Princess Anne of the British Royal Family, inventor James Dyson, Callum Best, Danni Menzies (A Place in the Sun), and Dimitri and Igor Bukhman, the billionaire cofounders of gaming giant Playrix. His work has appeared in GQ UK and top Spanish publications.
José is also the founder, editor-in-chief, and artistic force behind CRAZYFORYOU—a biannual fashion magazine exhibited at The Photographers’ Gallery in London. Bold and unapologetic, the magazine fuses fashion, art, and activism, celebrating alternative beauty, queer identity, and environmental awareness.
His photography has been showcased at D Contemporary in Mayfair (London), the Salón Mirò in Barcelona, and the Greenwich Yacht Club on the Thames.
Through every image, José Tio creates more than a photograph—he builds a world. One where beauty meets purpose, and stories are told with soul, style, and a touch of magic.
