Hello!! My name is Ryan Kim, also known as @Miknayr, which is cleverly written as my name backwards. I'm mainly focus on Food, Travel, & Lifestyle!! Always shooting ever so generic overhead food shots, bottom center focused portraits, cool textures and patterns, its almost like im just every other photographer on instagram.. maybe just a nobody.... but someday i hope i will become a somebody haha

I “borrowed” my sister’s canon rebel XS and started to play around trying to take cool pictures around my neighborhood at ultra-artistic angles and stuff like that. I was always interested in seeing how a photo would look like just in a form of a frame and I always thought of photography as being really interesting.

I would definitely say about one to three hours after high noon. The angle of light isn’t too harsh and you still have a lot of light. Sometimes the highlights that happen whenever I’m shooting against the sun or in the shade really makes for wonderful light.

I really enjoy shooting with the most minimal amount of photographic equipment. Usually its either with my Fujifilm X100S or iPhone but when its time to work, its with a 5d2 or 5dc and a bunch of prime lenses.
Recently ive been using my 5dc and 40 2.8 pancake lens!

To be honest, if there was something like my iphone but had the quality of a leaf or phaseone back and a lens equivalent to a 80 2.8 on the phaseone back… I think that would be my dream shooting camera haha

Hm…………. I would have to say im really kind of over seeing hot chicks on white walls… how basic you know??

No I really think the perfect photo would have too many imperfections that Somebody else will point out. Perfection is subjective
It hasn’t happened yet.
