Ryan Bailey, originally from Sarasota, Florida, is a New York–based fashion and lifestyle photographer known for his cinematic style and natural storytelling. He began his career shooting for BMX brands and magazines, developing a keen eye for movement, energy, and real-life moments.
After assisting renowned photographer Ben Watts, Ryan honed a signature look marked by bold composition and sun-soaked imagery. His work now spans editorial and commercial projects—with clients like Anthropologie—and reflects his love for character-driven, location-based shoots.
Collaborative and instinctive, Ryan creates imagery that feels lived-in, fresh, and emotionally resonant. Inspired by everyday life with his wife, Kara, and their daughter, Remy, he brings that same sense of warmth, intimacy, and authenticity to every frame.
