Leanne Marie Barazan was born in the Philippines, and grew up in New York City. The terrifyingly wonderful changes wrought out of the immigrant experience as a child have affected the way she sees the world and its people. These are the moments that have set into motion a career into photography.

With a background in documentary and lifestyle photography, Leanne looks to expand her work and skills delving into creating poetic fashionable imagery. From the opulent natural world of the islands to the grain and lights of the city, and as textured as life is, she crafts it into inspiration for her art.

Leanne is based in New York City.

She’s currently working on her BFA in the Fashion Institute of Technology.
