Bruno Bertini

ApprovedHe/himSpainItalybrunobertini.com

Bruno Bertini is a documentary and street portrait photographer based in Barcelona, working internationally across Asia, Europe, and beyond. His practice is rooted in humanism: consent-based portraiture that seeks dignity in the people he photographs rather than documentation of their circumstance. He photographs to cross distances. To disturb certainties. His work has been exhibited at the Nepal Photography Festival, the Colombo Photography Festival in Sri Lanka, and the MFC Festival in Barcelona. He was Highly Commended at Australasia's Top Emerging Photographers 2025 and longlisted in the top 200 of the Booooooom Photo Awards 2025 from approximately 19,000 entries. His images have been published in Protest in Photo: Gen Z Power 2025. Originally from Italy, Bertini brings an outsider's eye to every context he enters, making the familiar strange and the unfamiliar familiar. brunobertini.com | @shutterber
