“Life is not always picture perfect, but I like to be taken there in my imagery. Moments of bliss and pure amazement make me feel enlightened and enriched and I hope I can spread that feeling of consciousness through my photography.” – Ryan Turner
Over 20 years ago, Ryan Turner visited Big Sky, Montana and his life was forever changed. Enraptured by visions of his future as a photographer in Big Sky, Turner moved and made manifest the dream he’s been living for the past 17 years. “Ever since I can remember I have always been fascinated by photography, or the thought of using light to create art or document a memory,” reminisces Turner. That fascination with light – finding new ways in which light can “ignite the situation” – has been a driving force behind his photography and a hallmark of his uniquely remarkable images. An acclaimed adventure photographer, Turner shoots stunning skiing, hiking and fly-fishing action shots, while capturing the landscape, lifestyle and a little of the unexpected along the way. “As an artist, it is easy to be inspired to get out and live the adventurous lifestyle
Montana has to offer,” remarks Turner. “From its pristine mountain streams to its highest peaks, there is always an adventure awaiting.” Though he photographs primarily in Montana, Turner’s award-winning work has taken him to locations throughout the continental United States, Canada, France and many other places in between. Turner’s resume credits include Powder, Big Sky Journal, Montana Magazine, Forbes Life, Men's Journal and National Geographic Adventure among others, and clients the likes of Big Sky Resort, Yellowstone Club, Patagonia and Black Diamond. In addition, Bozeman Health Big Sky Medical Center features an extraordinary34-print installation of Turner’s work. The Ryan Turner Photography Gallery is located at the Bighorn Shopping Center, near the junction of Montana Highways 191 and 64 in Big Sky, MT. Open Monday through Friday, from 10AM until
