Ryan, Localgrapher in Chicago

Style:

Editorial, lifestyle. I like capturing the inbetween and genuine moments between family members and couples and showing personality in individuals.

Likes:

I love Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and competing and sparring almost every day. I love spending time with my 5 year old and 2 year old nieces and laughing together. I like to travel all over the world and gain new perspective and eat ALL of the food.

Recommended places:

– Olive Park: Offshoot from Lake Shore Path. Combines treelined path with a beautiful view of the Chicago skyline.

– Montrose Harbor: Lovely woodland gardens with paths as well as a view of the skyline from farther off.

– Lincoln Park Zoo: Combines nature with architecture, gardens, treelined paths, and classic Chicago skyline view off the south pond bridge.

– North Ave Beach: Beach, grasses, and Chicago skyline view.

– Chicago Riverwalk and/or Kinzie Street Bridge: Striking architecture and skyscrapers. The Kinzie street bridge is an iconic Chicago feel with fun angles.

– Wrigley Building: Amazing view of the downtown Chicago and neat white building with gold doors.

– Art Institute Gardens: Pretty gardens with fountain, ivy walls, and Chicago buildings in the background.

– Lurie Gardens: Stunning gardens, paths, and view of the skyline.
