Meet Raza Ry | Creative producer, agency owner, and photographer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Raza Ry and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Raza, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
Starting my own business is like one of my clients stepping onto a stage for the first time – exhilarating, nerve-wracking, but ultimately, a performance I was born to give. I’ve always been a creative soul, and I wanted to build a platform that allowed me to express my creativity and help others do the same.

I saw a gap in the market for a service that truly understood the needs and aspirations of creative entrepreneurs. So, I decided to fill that gap. I wanted to create a business that was an extension of myself – a business that reflected my passion for creativity, my commitment to helping others, and my knack for turning chaos into order.

Starting TapSVN was about more than just business. It was about creating a community, a space where creatives could come together, learn from each other, and grow together. It was about turning my passion into my profession and helping others do the same.

In the end, it wasn’t just about starting a business. It was about starting a movement. And that’s what keeps me going every day.

What should our readers know about your business?
At the heart of my businesses – TapSVN, UxU Agency, and my photography – is a deep-rooted passion for creativity and a mission to empower others to tap into their own creative potential.

TapSVN is an all in one platform designed to help creative entrepreneurs engage, track, and grow their audience using systemized promotion strategies. It’s a one-stop-shop for creatives looking to grow their brand and reach their audience in a meaningful way.

UxU Agency is a creative agency that focuses on producing high-quality content and providing marketing services for brands and individuals. We pride ourselves on our ability to tell compelling stories through visuals and narratives.

My photography is an extension of my creative expression. It’s about capturing moments, telling stories, and creating art that resonates with people.

What sets me apart is my commitment to authenticity and my ability to understand the unique needs and aspirations of creatives. I’ve been in their shoes, I’ve faced the same challenges, and I’ve navigated the same journey. This allows me to provide solutions that are not only effective but also empathetic.

The journey to where I am today wasn’t easy. There were obstacles, setbacks, and moments of self-doubt. But each challenge was a lesson in resilience, perseverance, and the power of believing in your vision. I learned the importance of staying true to your passion, the value of community, and the transformative power of creativity.

I want the world to know that my businesses are more than just businesses. They are platforms for creativity, communities for collaboration, and catalysts for change. They are a testament to the power of following your passion and the impact you can make when you empower others to do the same.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Alright, so you’re coming to visit for a week? Buckle up, my friend, because we’re going to have a blast, Raza-style!

Day 1: We’re kicking things off with a bang. You’re joining me on a shoot. You’ll get to see me in action, capturing moments and creating magic with my camera. It’s not just about taking photos; it’s about telling stories, and I can’t wait for you to be a part of it.

Day 2: We’re heading to an Open Gem event. It’s a platform for creatives to showcase their talent and connect with like-minded individuals. You’ll get to experience the vibrant, dynamic energy of the creative community first-hand.

Day 3: Time for a breather. We’re chilling at home today. My wife and I love to cook, so we’ll whip up something delicious. Our home is our sanctuary, and we love sharing it with friends.

Day 4: We’re hitting up Taqueria Los Primos for some authentic Mexican food. Their Birria tacos are to die for, and the atmosphere is always lively and fun.

Day 5: We’re back on the grind. You’re joining me for a meeting. You’ll get to see the behind-the-scenes of running a business, the brainstorming sessions, the problem-solving, the hustle.

Day 6: We’re heading to La Azteca for more Mexican goodness. Trust me, you’ll want to try their enchiladas.

Day 7: We’re wrapping things up at the HurtLocka Studio. We might have a photoshoot or a podcast recording, or we might just grab a beer and catch up.

So, that’s a week in the life of Raza. It’s a mix of work and play, hustle and chill, creativity and relaxation. But most importantly, it’s about sharing experiences and making memories with the people who matter most. Can’t wait for you to join the ride!
