Kristen M. Bryant

Raised in Hickory Tavern, South Carolina, Kristen Bryant began her career at an early age as a photographer. Her first photography works included model portfolios, portraits, musician portraits, and weddings. She then studied at Greenville Technical College and Savannah College of Art and Design for a degree in Visual Communications where she added fine art, film medium, and a “Room Portrait” portrait series of over 50 portraits to her portfolio. Bryant next moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina and added photography for her lifestyle blog, real estate photography, marketing photography needs for website and social media, and work as a behind the scenes photographer for film sets to her photographic resume.

In the painting realm, Bryant began painting with acrylic and watercolor during the 2020 quarantine, and has since continued to paint abstract designs that can be purchased as inkjet prints at kristenmbryant.com.

And in addition, Bryant has been working as a storyteller and marketing director for Winston-Salem, NC maker and business owner Jenni Earle.

She is known for carrying a 35mm camera and photographing life on the go.
