RM Sports Photography About page

As a former athlete and long-time coach, I understand the speed, intensity, and emotion that drive every moment of competition. That perspective shapes how I shoot—I know the plays, I anticipate the action, and I capture the split-second moments athletes are proud of.

I’m Ryan Mountenay, a sports photographer based in Edmonton, Alberta, and the creator of Great White North Images. As a lifelong athlete and certified coach, I understand the intensity, emotion, and split-second decisions that define sport. That background shapes the way I shoot. I know what moments matter—because I’ve lived them—and I work to capture images that tell the real story of an athlete’s performance, personality, and passion. My goal is simple: deliver photos that feel authentic, powerful, and unforgettable.Whether I’m at the rink, on the field, or behind the bench, I approach every session with a coach’s eye and an athlete’s mindset. I focus on timing, technique, and the details that most people miss, creating images that parents, teams, and athletes can be proud of for years. RM Sports Photography isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about celebrating the work, the grit, and the moments that athletes never forget.

My goal is to create images that feel authentic and powerful—photographs that reflect the work, passion, and pride behind every performance, and that athletes and families will hold onto for years.
