About | The moments by Brandon

Me during my 2 month stay in New York purely for some street photo fun (2022)

Hi, I'm Brandon, a Seoul-born, Melbourne-based street photographer.

No fancy words here. I just like to go out to the street and see what's happening with my small Fuji X100V camera. If I see something interesting, I shoot. That's about it!
