Brandon Barcena / @portraitsbybrandon
A self-taught photographer; based out of Calgary, Canada. 
Graduated with a Bachelor of Design in Photography, at Alberta University of the Arts.
I became interested in photography through urban exploring; falling in love with the freeing feeling of being able to capture moments, beyond what the average eye is able to witness and experience. I started off shooting primarily street photos, my style has been constantly evolving over the past 3 years, as I am currently deeply immersed in portrait photography. 
The goal with my work is to take my audience on a journey through a viewing path filled with details and personality; giving them the sense that they know the story of what is shot, while also allowing their mind to wander with their own interpretations, creating an even longer-lasting connection, solidifying my art within them.
My creative passion and determination, are key drives into manifesting any ideas, client's or my own, into being.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
