Bryan Murphy
Born and raised in New York City, eventually escaping to the (much) warmer and sunnier pastures of Scottsdale, AZ in my late 20’s. Spent most of my career in the hospitality industry, opening restaurants all around the country, finally landing in Austin in 2015. When I’m not taking photos I’m usually searching for the best tacos in town, working on my short game or tossing a ball for my good boy rescue pooch, Sam.
