about bryanna bradley
My name in Bryanna Bradley, I am a professionally trained photojournalist turned surf and wedding photographer.
As my photography has moved away from journalism and more towards weddings and surf I still hold documentary style photography close to my heart. I have a strong affinity towards natural lighting, beautiful giggles, and contrasting colours. My passion for documenting the raw beauty of emotions and dreamy visuals has not changed. My style of photography is based on people and the experience, including all the little moments.
