Portrait photographer based out of Smyrna, Georgia, Richard Brodowski began pursuing photography in 2021 while photographing his daughter’s horse shows. What started as a way to have good show photos soon developed into a deeper creative passion. Within a few months, he began creating portraits at her barn, discovering an enduring interest in photographing people.

Richard’s professional background spans law enforcement and the technology industry, two fields that strengthened his attention to detail, adaptability, and ability to connect with people from all walks of life. He brings those qualities to every portrait session, combining careful observation with a relaxed, personal approach.

Although portraiture is the primary focus of his work, Richard’s curiosity extends across the full range of photography. He is continually inspired by the possibilities of light, composition, and authentic moments, whether photographing a person, an event, or the natural world.

Richard’s photography has been exhibited by the Atlanta Photography Group and featured in the M2R TrailFest traveling exhibition.
