Photographer
Kirsten Bresciani
Born in Brisbane, a day dreamer with a curious mind. My camera has been my companion from the age 9 using it to capture the world around me at home and on my adventures around the world. I trained as a photographer at the Queensland College of Art Brisbane and went on to work in commercial photography in Brisbane, London and now Melbourne where my focus is on shooting homes and interiors, gardens, food, and people.
I love to take photographs in my own time and am drawn to a varying range of subject such as architecture, travel, flowers, plants, seascapes, landscapes, clouds, and people which have culminated into multiple exhibitions and an online store. I now call Melbourne home where I am more grounded these days with my husband, two young boys and Jack the cocker spaniel.
