Be forewarned that I might get a little sappy here. I’ve been known to do so.
The March issue of Philadelphia Magazine marks the end of a small epoch for me. Since November of 2005, I’ve been given the honor of making the opening photograph of the calendar section in Philadelphia Magazine. I haven’t made every [...]

Just received a couple of clips of published images, which I made last year in NYC. They were shot for Yoga Journal’s department sections in the Feb. issue. It was a fun assignment, if challenging.
It went down like this: Yoga Journal asked me to shoot 3 separate assignments in one day because all the subjects [...]
In an effort to expand my presence in this whole Internet thing (I hear it’s going to be big.), I wanted to start exploring the capabilities to share images from my archive on this blog using Photoshelters’ Way-Too-Powerful-for-Ryan-to-Understand marketing tools. So here is a small slideshow of images from my Ireland visit last year, with [...]

Just wanted to post a link to another recent cover I photographed. This time for a client in Abu Dhabi, “M” Magazine, which is the Saturday magazine for The National newspaper. Big ups to my friend Kerri Abrams for helping me secure the gig.

So I’m knee chin deep in production right now for a ad shoot, but I’ve got a little bit of news about a web launch. And on top of that, I’ve received a couple of nice shout-outs this week.
First, I’ve launched a dedicated site for my ongoing Philadelphia Polling Place Project. It was put together [...]

I finally found the ad, which I produced for Martin Guitars last winter, in print. This was in the premier issue of Guitar Afficiando magazine. It was one of the coldest shoots that I’ve been on for a long time. So big ups go out to Tierney Art Buyer Wylie Moran, Art Director Andy Benson [...]

Just a quick end-of-the-day note (though I’m sure most peeps are already heading “Down the Shore”) to let everyone know that I’ve uploaded a few new images to the New Work section of my website. This update includes some images from my new, and on-going, project on roller skating here in Philly.
Enjoy the holiday!

Just back from a week in sunny Virginia, hangin’ with my homeys Rachael outta NYC and photographer/assistant extraordinaire Ryan Collerd. Since I can’t show the awesome photos we produced down in VA, yet, I thought I’d post a few more images from my rollerskating project. These are scans from some rolls that were processed just [...]

Funny thing this month: I have two clips, from two separate magazines, that are so similar in theme and use of design. Both designers selected tight headshots of the subjects from my shoots and then also used food in the opposing title page design. The use of color in both is great also. I think [...]
