A Conversation with Ryan Muirhead on Finding a Calling

If you've had a chance to check out Framed Network's fabulous mini-series, Film, you'll be familiar with the awesome, inspiring work of Ryan Muirhead. Ryan's career as a photographer started only around five years ago, since then he's made quite a splash in the film-shooting (and otherwise) community and become a constant source of inspiration for me. In this interview he chats with The Artist Report about the importance of living in the present, embracing (or at least learning to live with) failure, and how he's gone about weighing what he wants to do against what he needs to. If you have an extra 25-odd minutes this afternoon I'd highly encourage you to check out this video, you may be a better photographer for it.

To keep up with this fabulous photographer check out Ryan on his Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, and website.

Thanks for posting this! I never heard of Ryan before but I have seen his work as a life long fan of The Used this guy is quickly becoming one of my favorite photographers.

I only recently discovered [F]ramed Network's series Film with Ryan Muirhead, Tanya Lippert, and Tia Reagan. He's committed to film/analog and has a brand of really caring and being open to what photography can provide as a creative career and a pursuit that can contribute to people's lives. I definitely follow him. Thanks for the post.

Been following ryan's work for a while now. really really great stuff. he used to reply on his instagram and fb page if u need to know how it was done etc, but i guess he's gotten too busy :(

That's a passionate dude! Cool interview. Thanks
