Ryan Mason is a lifestyle and documentary photographer based in Norwich, UK.
It all began at university, where Ryan would hire a camera from the library every weekend and take it into London. Photography quickly became a creative outlet alongside his studies, and his work soon gained recognition within the music scene. This led to regular commissions with music artists, record labels and publications.
Years of honing his craft and style within the music industry saw Ryan work with clients including Atlantic Records, Rock Sound Magazine and Festival Republic, documenting some of the UK’s biggest festivals, including Reading, Latitude and Download.
His passion for storytelling and reportage photography, combined with a lifelong love of sport and travel, eventually led him to co-found the football, travel and culture brand Glory in 2016. Through Glory, Ryan has travelled across the globe documenting football culture and the people, places and stories that surround the game.
His work has since expanded across the world of sport, with clients including Adidas, EA Sports, COPA90, SoccerBible and Umbro, as well as a range of football clubs and sporting organisations around the world.
