The Ryan McKenna Apprentice Collection chronicles my life from 2005-2020, telling a story of those years through symbolism.
During this period, I undertook a series of service-based apprenticeship roles across software, entrepreneurship, media, law, and Biblical Studies. It was informal in structure, yet defined by a series of evolving objectives.
While not every photo in the Apprentice Collection represents my best technical work, the purpose of this display was never perfection. It was exploration. The objective was to gain a deeper awareness of the natural world by using my own eyes, and through the lessons of those I encountered along the way.
No one paid me to do this. I did it for you as much as I did it for myself.
There are over 6,500 unreleased photos that may one day appear here, each belonging to other yet-to-be-published collections. You can download new collections in the content section as they become available, and soon purchase archival-quality prints delivered directly to you.
