"Her combination of cinematic style paired with classic wedding photography gave us the best of both worlds."

"Ria was truly the only photographer we were set on. The moment we saw her pics we were like WE NEED HER!!! We anxiously awaited to make sure she was available and it truly made our wedding planning experience so much more exciting when we found out she was available. Her combination of cinematic style photography paired with the classic wedding photography gave us the best of both worlds that we were looking for. Ria was so organized which put my type A brain to rest. She was so thoughtful and detail oriented and really got to know us. Our friends and family had so many positive things to say about her (not surprising) and kept mentioning how sweet she was with everyone."

"Ria's superpower is the ability to make us feel instantly comfortable in her presence and in front of the camera"

"My fiancé and I first discovered Ria's stunning work from Instagram. During our first meeting, we instantly vibed and knew that she was THE photographer for us!! We didn’t need to talk to anyone else. Not only did we love her style, use of film and digital imagery, and creativity, she is such a sweet, cool, passionate, and beautiful human (inside and out). Ria's superpower is the ability to make us feel instantly comfortable in her presence and in front of the camera. She has impeccable vision and made us feel like supermodels the entire time. When we received our gallery, we were BLOWN AWAY!!! We're so grateful for Ria and her phenomenal talent!!! WE LOOOOOVE YOU, RI!! XOXO

"Her commitment to her craft and her clients shone through in every interaction, making it clear we made the best choice."

"Choosing the right wedding photographer was crucial for us, and we knew immediately that Ria was the perfect fit. What truly set Ria apart was how she encouraged us to drive the creative process. She was incredibly open to the shots we were passionate about and worked diligently to make them a reality. Her ability to listen and absorb our ideas during our meetings made us feel truly heard and respected. Her commitment to her craft and her clients shone through in every interaction, making it clear we made the best choice. On the day of I will always remember how she switched on her portable speaker and played some Doja Cat to help us loosen up... what a pro, it worked like a charm. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated photographer to capture our special day."

"SHE MAKES YOU FEEL SO SECURE WITH YOURSELF AND IS TOTALLY OPEN TO YOUR OPINION AND VISION"

"Ria is truly something special. Not only with her work but also her as a person! I feel like my husband and I have made a life long friend. Her vision is so special and one of a kind. She did my engagement and wedding photos! We got a ton of compliments from guests and my bridal party how much they loved her! She makes you feel so secure with yourself and is totally open to your opinion and vision. She was such a hit I have had multiple people ask me for her info to book her for themselves. You will not regret booking Ria. If you want timeless photos that tell a story she is your person! Love you so much Ria can’t wait to work together again!"

"Ria was hands down one of the easiest wedding planning decisions that my husband and I made. Ria is kind, professional, so genuine, insanely talented (I mean look at the girls portfolio it is RIDICULOUS) and just the ultimate hype girl with the coooolest vibe. She made us feel so calm and comfortable from our engagement photos to our wedding day which was super important to us.

AMY & DUSTIN

"I SEARCHED THROUGH HUNDREDS OF PHOTOGRAPHERS’ PROFILES FROM ALL OVER THE U.S ON INSTAGRAM AND ONLY WANTED ria AS OUR PHOTOGRAPHER."

"There are no words that describe how wonderful Ria is as a person and as a photographer - her pictures speak for themselves and show the love and passion she has for capturing the best moments of life in the most timeless way! I literally searched through hundreds of photographers’ profiles from all over the US on Instagram and only wanted her as our photographer. No matter where I looked, I was quickly drawn back to her photos.
We are forever grateful and couldn’t have asked for better captured memories ♥️" 

KYRA & NIKOLA

"NOT ONLY IS RIA THE BIGGEST HYPE GIRL, BUT SHE IS ALSO KIND, PROFESSIONAL, AND EXTREMELY TALENTED."

"My husband and I hired Ria to capture our engagement and wedding photos and she absolutely exceeded our expectations in every way possible! We both are usually pretty awkward in front of the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable and confident in what we were doing. Not only is Ria the BIGGEST hype girl, but she is also kind, professional, and extremely talented. We just received a few sneak peeks after our wedding this past weekend and were amazed at how perfectly she was able to capture every tiny detail and special moment. My husband and I will cherish the photos that she took for years to come. Hire this girl, you won't regret it!!"

BECCA & CALEB

"HER PHOTOS ARE BEST IN CLASS, AND SHE'S THE MOST FUN, DOWN TO EARTH PERSON TO WORK WITH"

"If I could give this girl more stars I would. Her work is incredible and I had high expectations for my wedding (because she killed it for my engagement photo shoot) - and man did she blow it out of the water. I felt like I was reliving my dream day when I looked through my gallery - and cried so many times I had to call my mom. Her photos are best in class, and she's the most fun, down to earth person to work with. She made me feel so comfortable the entire day - even though it was 100 degrees outside. I can't recommend her enough, she's a rockstar photographer."

ASHLEY & ERIC

"SHE CALMS YOUR NERVES, HYPES YOU UP, ELEVATES EVERYONE AROUND HER AND ALWAYS CAPTURES THE MOST STUNNING SHOTS POSSIBLE"

" I cannot gush enough about how incredible Ria is -- not only is she a TALENT at what she does (truly, there's no photographer out there who is better), but she creates an environment that is fun and easy to shoot in. She calms your nerves, she hypes you up, she elevates everyone around her and always captures the most stunning shots possible. She is extremely detail orientated, and other vendors look to her as the source of truth when it comes to group shots, backdrops, and coordination. Ria was the very first vendor I booked in my wedding process and I'm so grateful to have found her, she is an expert in the wedding industry space and comes with countless recommendations. Ria's style cannot be beat, no questions asked." 

ANDREA & DARYUS

HAYLEIGH & KENDALL

"IT’S THE ENERGY THAT RIA BRINGS TO THE ROOM. THE BIG SMILE, CONFIDENCE, AND LOVE THAT SHE EXUDES IS EVERYTHING THAT I NEEDED"

"From the very beginning, she was so amazing at communicating through each step. Ria is not there just as a photographer but she is there as a friend. This part of hiring Ria is unlike anything else, she fully invests her time and energy into you like it’s her own wedding. She cared about my vision from the getting ready photos to the floral details to the dance floor moments. There was so many moments through the day that I would just look over at Ria and she would have this big smile on her face and her camera right there ready to document that moment. It’s the energy that Ria brings to the room. The big smile, confidence, and love that she exudes is everything that I needed. She hyped me and my husband up ALL day and it was exactly what we needed to be surrounded around. We LOVE you Ria. Thank you for telling our story 🤍"

ALEX & SPENCER

"SOMEHOW SHE TOOK TWO PEOPLE WHO FEEL INCREDIBLY AWKWARD IN FRONT OF A CAMERA AND MADE IT LOOK EFFORTLESS!"

"Ria is a true gem!! There was an instant vibe between us the moment we met, and we knew her positive, carefree attitude was the perfect fit. She’s the most fun, down-to-earth chick, and there was truly never an uncomfortable moment (which I never thought possible). Somehow she took two people who feel incredibly awkward in front of a camera and made it look effortless! We seriously could not have done it without her patient guidance, chill vibes, and artistic eye. Ri’s editing skills are stellar AND timeless – I love that we don’t look unnatural, washed out, or filtered in a trendy way in any of our photos (we had a poor experience with a different photographer last year for an engagement shoot, and trust me when I say IT MATTERS)."

HANNAH & JESSE

"SHE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND IN EVERY WAY"

“I cannot even begin to express how happy we are with Ria and her gorgeous photography! We ended up eloping at the courthouse after postponing our wedding to 2021 and not only did she capture the most STUNNING photos of our day, but she went above and beyond in every way. She scouted out the perfect locations ahead of time and even suggested a vintage car rental - an idea that was so perfectly us and made for some epic sunset photographs. Not to mention it added to the memories and the whole experience! She made the day so fun and we felt so comfortable with her! The pictures are better than we could have ever dreamed of."
