"We didn't believe it, but wedding photography is probably the only tangible takeaway from an important life event. Ryan allowed my husband and I to relive the most memorable day of our lives. Brides, take note that you spend 80% of your time with your photographer so finding someone who can be your hype friend / cheerleader and capture you in the greatest possible way is crucial. Ryan came at the recommendation of our wedding planner. It was clear after meeting Ryan: He has mastered the art of being fun, energetic, and lighthearted with incredible professionalism, organization, and structure. All the things you want in a wedding photographer for what could potentially be a fast-paced and chaotic day. It was an easy decision for me and my husband to go with Ryan after interviewing other vendors. Ryan is purposeful without compromising his passion for the craft. He is incredibly talented. We appreciated his communication in the days leading up to our wedding as well as after - we were shocked to receive our preview photos so early after the wedding. Our entire bridal party was impressed with his timeliness and mentioned multiple times how much fun they had working with him. Run, don't walk. Hire Ryan - we've done the thinking for you."
We first met Ryan at a friend's small ceremony at SF City Hall and we could immediately tell he was super talented, very professional and frankly fun to be around. We asked him to do our wedding (and engagement) after meeting him on that occasion. We couldn't have made a better decision. We were terrified to take Engagement photos because we thought the whole concept was awkward and a little cheesy -- but as soon as we met Ryan, he quickly put us at ease and made us feel so special and the process feel so effortless. The photos that he delivered were EPIC and we were so happy. We had our wedding last weekend, and he somehow managed to eclipse the talent and professionalism we experienced the first time around. He's a true pro. He knows how to get all the right shots (and with a large family, this was no small feat). He has a super creative eye for light and surroundings. And best of all, he knows how to make everyone look amazing. As of now, we've only seen the sneak previews, but from what we can already tell--these are going to be some of the best photos ever. Did I mention, he's also just fun to be around??? Could not recommend Ryan enough!
We had the best time with Ryan during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. He is funny, charming and so thoughtful in everything he does. Him and his team also captured such amazing moments on our wedding day and we can’t thank them enough. He is super responsive and genuinely cares about all his clients. He also worked so well with our wedding planner. Everything was truly flawless!!
