Ghost

This self-portrait represents how I felt losing myself in grief. I felt like a shell of a person for months, disappearing from reality, as if I could float away. My partner kept me grounded and it's truly a love letter to the love I lost and the love that's still here by my side.

About Artist

Brynn Bromley

Hi! I'm a creative photographer and self-portrait artist. I've studied film and digital photography most of my life, moved from a small town in Washington State to Los Angeles to continue my education in photography. I have a background in the performing arts, I'm a SAG-AFTRA actor, and I love musical theatre and dance. I love trying every genre of photography, but my strengths are creative set ups, original concepts, and retro recreations. I'm an introvert at heart and I gravitate to photography I can enjoy by myself, like self-portraits, macro, travel, nature, and events. I live with my equally creative partner and our two rescue dogs. I had a home studio in LA for many years, and now we live full-time in our 1950's style camper trailer, traveling around the continent so I can shift gears from studio photography to life on the road. I will miss my studio greatly, but my itch to travel is stronger. I hope to keep my life an ever-changing adventure!
