MK Rynne is a photographer, artist, and educator based in the North Shore of Boston, whose career spans over three decades. She began her professional journey in the late 1980s as a photojournalist and still photographer on film and television sets, capturing striking visual narratives. A transformative workshop with acclaimed photographer Larry Fink inspired Rynne to transition to fine art documentary photography, where she merges artistry with storytelling. In 1990, Rynne honed her talent at the Art Institute of Boston, where she began a groundbreaking photographic series exploring the lives of exotic dancers. This work earned her critical acclaim including recognition as a top finalist for the prestigious Henri Cartier-Bresson Award in 1991. This underscored her ability to delve deeply into the human experience, shedding light on underrepresented stories with empathy and authenticity, and became the basis for her master’s thesis, completed at Harvard University in 1996. Rynne’s evocative imagery has been exhibited in galleries and featured in publications, affirming her place as a significant voice in fine art documentary photography. Beyond her talent as a photographer, she shares her passion for art and creativity as a dedicated art teacher, inspiring the next generations of artists.
