Since the dawn of his photography business in 2008, Ryan Southen has traveled the world pursuing his passion: capturing people and environments. In particular, Ryan draws viewers into moments of easy intimacy in his portraits, and introduces his audience to lesser-known artistic feats in Detroit, MI and far beyond. Ryan cares deeply about forming lasting relationships with his clients, which translates into creative shoots, painstaking editing, and striking finished products -- whether for your special day or your next ad campaign. In addition to shooting weddings, Ryan has delivered high-quality commercial images for large businesses, foundations, and architecture firms throughout the Midwest. Despite becoming an award-winning photographer (The Knot 'Best of' Hall of Fame), Ryan wants you to know that he's a true Midwesterner (read: friendly and approachable). He looks forward to collaborating with clients on projects to ensure they leave not only with a visual story that exceeds the industry standard, but also with a positive experience from Ryan Southen Photography.
