Leonidas Bratini
Artist and Photographer in Winter Park, Florida
I CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE AN ARTIST IN THE MAKING
Born in the Dominican Republic, Leonidas moved to the Bronx in the early 1990s and now lives in Orlando, Florida. He enjoys taking pictures, particularly during weekend walks throughout New York City and any other cities he might be visiting.
I’ve loved photography since very young, growing up in the Dominican Republic it was the only way for me to remember what my sister and mother looked like since they had moved to New York City when I was very little. Then growing up in The Bronx, NY I always loved to see pictures from the early 20th century. I love the idea of freezing a moment in time just the way it was. This is my goal each time I take a photo.
