Street photography can capture the most authentic moments in the lives of local people, and Andrea Torrei has been doing just that.

Originally from Rome, Andrea travels the world with her camera always by her side. While photography is her passion rather than her profession, her work has been widely recognized. She has been featured in several books, including Hidden Within Realities, edited and published by Eyeshot Magazine, and Women Street Photographers, edited by Gulnara Samoilova and published by Prestel. Her work has also appeared in magazines such as LFI International and AAP Magazines.

From grey Latvia to colorful Ethiopia, you will get to see a range of different lifestyles and cultures through her lens, each frame offering a unique perspective on the beauty and diversity of the world around us.
