About the Artist
Stacey Massey is the author of Fall in Love with Rye. The photobook takes readers on an intimate journey through the picturesque city of Rye, capturing its timeless charm and beauty through the lens of photography.
Massey lives in Rye with her husband and two children. Growing up in England, she was a competitive gymnast, which sparked her love for travel as she competed across Europe and the U.S. with Camberley Gymnastics Club. Her passion for photography began during her time in San Francisco but paused when she became a mother. In 2023, Stacey reignited her creative journey, fulfilling her lifelong dream of capturing the Aurora Borealis. Her love for photography also fuels her early morning walks along the Long Island Sound, where she embraces the vibrant beauty of dawn that nature offers each day.
