Flash gun for hire.

Ryu is a freelance photographer based in Paris, France. He lives with his wonderfully French wife as well as their cuddle crazy cat and excitable goldfish.

His career as a sports photographer started in 2005 when he was asked to shoot the Confederations Cup in Germany. Having had no prior experience shooting sports, he managed to do okay after that.

He now works for Nike, Sports Graphic Number, Footballista, Shukan Post, Sapio, Nikkei Medical, Hays France and countless happy couples.

He also runs a sports photography podcast / website with Matt Cohen called Big Lens Fast Shutter.

For some reason, he's going third person here.
