ABOUT

​

​Shawn Bracke is a photographer based out of Toronto, ON.

​

Taking inspiration from the human experience, Shawn's goal is to capture intimate moments that convey a feeling. Through his portraiture and branding works, he aims to capture authenticity in his subjects within a safe and collaborative creative space. 

 

Recently off a three month residency with Capsul Studios (Toronto), he explored photographing members from the LGBTQ+ community while discovering where they first found a sense of community as a queer person, conducted through informal interviews. Completed installation with full artist statement projected for 2024 for this project.

 

Leading the creative process, Shawn takes his knowledge from Choreography and Movement Direction to each shoot/set and in the post production process. His work as an Dance Instructor comes in key for fluid photoshoots creating images that reflect the best version of the subjects he's shooting.
