Sam Ryan

In this episode of Biblioscapes in Discussion, I am joined by Sam Ryan to talk about her work and her book Chasing Shadows.

Sam spent a year between 2018 and 2019 capturing the interplay of light and shadow on the streets of Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Her live music and street photography images share the same philosophy; spontaneously and candidly capturing the moment.

We also discussed a selection of Sam’s favourite books from her own collection…

• The Best of End Notes… Bill Jay

• Love Story… John Bolloten

• Internal Voices… Claire Armitage

• Sequentially Yours… Elliot Erwitt

• Contact Sheets… Magnum

You can see more of Sam’s work on her website and find her on Instagram and Twitter.
