Ryan Schude
Born in the greater Chicagoland area in 1979, Ryan Schude received his undergraduate degree in Business Administration from St. Mary's College in Northern California before heading to the San Francisco Art Institute for photography.
After shooting freelance for a bit and then working full time as a photo editor in San Diego, Ryan moved to Los Angeles where he currently lives and works out of the Forge, a studio just outside of downtown. Focusing around a conceptual and narrative framework, Ryan blends a fine art background with a more produced look to create multiple stories within each photo.
Inspiration is constantly fed both by his immersion in the vast locations around L.A., and the strong creative network backed by the other two partners at the Forge, Collins Schude and Dan Busta, who are involved heavily in many of Ryan's projects.
Exhibitions:
