Lucy O’Bryan is a photographer, producer, and humanitarian storyteller whose career has taken her from conflict zones and remote communities to documentary development and global media projects.

​

Over the past 25 years, she has worked across humanitarian and institutional settings throughout Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe, collaborating with the United Nations, USAID, USDA, international NGOs, and donor-funded initiatives. Her work is shaped by years spent navigating unfamiliar places, earning trust quickly, and documenting the human stories that exist beyond headlines and official narratives.

​

O’Bryan previously created, hosted, and executive produced Lost With Lucy, a documentary travel series developed for OWN. Comfortable moving between fieldwork, portraiture, production, and storytelling, she brings a global perspective and strong visual instinct to every project.

​

Based in Los Angeles and working internationally, she continues to develop documentary and creative collaborations while expanding her portrait practice.
