More about Ryan C....
What do you love about your job?
I love the constant fulfillment of meeting and working with so many different people, each for their own reasons.
From working with a shy couple on their wedding day, being able to be comfortable in their surroundings just long enough to capture that perfect moment which embodies their love for each other.
To working with highly creative specialist and being either able to be a fly on the wall and capture them in their element, purely and uninterrupted.
To working with a team of people, going back and forth to produce a singular creative vision.
Every time I pack my gear and head to a shoot. I am always excited to go to work and find out what is next amazing story that I, so luckily, get to tell.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I try to make every shoot that I have special anyway that I can.
For weddings I will honestly do anything I can to create special images for the couple. From being persistent on capturing a grumpy grandpa for the bride no matter how many times they might dodge my lens. To running up 5 flights of stairs to get a new angle. To cracking silly faces to cheer up an upset flower girl. If there is anything I can do, no matter how seemingly insignificant at the time, to make a special day even better I will.
No matter what style of shoot I'm at there is mostly nothing that I won't do (while being safe to the people around me) to pursue an idea for a shot. Sometimes, admittingly, not taking the most care to my own safety!
A fun fact about this photographer
Even though I have lived my entire life in Perth. I can't handle the heat unless submerged in water and I have never visited Rottnest Island.... Yeah, yeah. I know!
