Brian Rivera - Fine Art Photographer
Raised in Key Biscayne, Florida surrounded by nature and wildlife, he never took the gift of life's beauty for granted. At 15 years old, the gift of a Fuji Film camera from his parents set him on a course for adventure and travel unknown to him at the time. Since then, Brian has followed his passion to capture and share the most beautiful places on earth. His expeditions have led him from the cold terrains of Alaska and Canada to the coast of Maine, to Washington's most treasured national parks, to the high altitudes of the Rocky Mountain National Park and the famous Yellowstone National Park, to the marshlands of Georgia to overseas countries like Iceland. Thee drama and artistry of his photographs are born from a wonder and excitement of wanting to capture the raw power in the art of the natural world. His talent of utilizing light and fleeting moments ravishes his portfolio. His success comes from his patience of wanting to capture the true essence of whatever he is shooting. A major landmark for Brian came in 2015, when his image Harmony got into the Audubon Photography Award’s top 100. Since then, his images have been recognized by international and national photography competitions.
