Hi, I’m Ryan.

I’m a documentary photographer based in Chicago, Illinois.

I’m interested in capturing irony, humor or contrariety in the common scene as well as projects that require a photojournalistic level of envelopment into a given community and/or subject.

Lemme tell you what I’m working on:

I’m currently focused on a long term project in Ireland. With the goal of exploring the duality of Western Irelands’ rural communities’ preservation of the Irish language in it’s purest and most traditional form; contrasted by community driven initiatives to revitalize the daily use of the language outside of the educational system in Dublin city.
