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.
