My name is Connor Ryan and I am a Photographer, FAA-certified Drone Pilot, and Video Creator in Memphis, Tennessee. I am known for my depictions of the cityscapes and natural beauty of the Memphis, Tennessee area. My goal in starting to photograph Memphis was, and still is, to showcase the unique look and feel of the city that too often goes unnoticed.

My photo/video journey began in September 2017, when I started making vlogs using my brother’s GoPro Hero Session. I was inspired to make these videos by YouTuber and Social Media Influencer Casey Neistat, who is still one of my favorite creators today. The only problem was my laptop at the time was too slow to keep up with the video edits I was trying to make. So, I then turned my focus to photography, until I could afford a better computer to edit.

In the summer of 2018, I started making my way to Downtown Memphis on a regular basis to take photos, and I discovered a community of other like-minded individuals who believe in the potential of Memphis. This is also when I bought my first drone, a DJI Mavic Air. My life has changed dramatically since then, for the better.

My portfolio also includes photos from locations I have traveled to and portraits I have taken of others, as I use these to build my skills base. My areas of focus are real estate photography & video, drone content, business promotion, social media marketing, and personal artistic pursuits.
