PEOPLE & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY Oct 2022

Raised on the east coast of Canada and now living near Toronto, Ian Garrick Mason’s photography is strongly inflected by the styles and perspectives of documentary filmmaking (a long-time part of his creative practice), of photojournalism, and of classical painting.

A former journalist and magazine editor himself, Ian shoots in order to tell human stories, to convey the context in which they take place, and to capture or re-create the kind of authenticity that engages viewers and calls up associations they may not consciously perceive—but which move them all the same.

Ian has produced images for a wide range of designers, agencies, and brands in Toronto, Montreal, New York City, Paris, and London. He is an avid rucker and, occasionally, a rallycross driver.
