About
MICHAEL “YOGI” BARRERA
I grew up with a photographer for a mom—while other kids did chores for video games, I did chores for Polaroid cartridges. Watching her stop in her tracks and make the ordinary look beautiful blew my mind…and set me on this path.
Fast forward twenty-something years, and I can’t keep a camera out of my hands. From quiet Bluebonnet portraits to hanging out of a helicopter with S.W.A.T., I can be a fly on the wall or the life of the party. I’ll make a 3-year-old laugh, a bride breathe easier, a dog look my way—and capture every moment in between. Give me a time and place, and I’ll show up ready for whatever you throw at me.
