I live in Alberta, Canada and cheer for the Edmonton Oilers in sickness and in health until death do us part.

I love photography. From my first camera on November 26, 2002 (Canon 2.0MP A40) to my current Canon 30D (June 23, 2006) I have done nothing but experiment and play which got me to where I am today.

I really really enjoy shooting weddings of people I know and only really enjoy shooting weddings of strangers.

I love landscape shots, sunsets, sunrises, violent weather and the like. If I could be anything I wanted one of the top 5 would be a storm chaser. I already do this amateurishly and very much enjoy it!

I spent April 29, 2008 to June 24th, 2008 traveling around 31 countries in Europe and Africa. I enjoyed this a lot and my only schedule was the weather and my sense of adventure.

I do have a website. it's www.shippelt.com and there is a nice little video on there with a few additional pages.

I am a Christian and try to live as he did and inspire others in how I live my life. I have an older sister who is married and they brought me a little nephew (though he won't be little for long!)

I look forward to everyday and try to enjoy it as much as I can and not let boredom have it's way with me. I'm a very happy person and very stubborn. This is why there's no way you can make me study for an exam if I don't want to :)

    Krysta Larson says:

    "Ryan was quite possibly the very first person to spark my interest in photography! It's quite evident that photography is the love of his life, and I've met few people with such a passion for great photos. There isn't much that he isn't willing to do if it means getting a great shot. Blizzards, -40 windchill, climbing cliffs, standing in the pouring rain... he'll do it all. It's amazing how he can turn anything into a masterpiece. Aside from being an amazing photographer, Ryan is an awesome friend, with a great outlook on life. :)"
