About

Hello.

We're Ryan & Christina Palma

We attended the same college for visual arts, and while we were there at separate times, we both fell in love with photography in the same class room! It all began in the dark room as we developed our first rolls of film that the sparks began to fly beginning our love affair with photography.

Photography isn’t just something we do, it’s a part of who we are. We truly LOVE what we do and for that we consider ourselves blessed. Let’s chat about how we can make your photography dreams come true!

Cr photos review

From the very first Zoom call with Christina, I knew I wanted CR Photos for our wedding. When we met in person, I fell in love with them even more. Christina and her husband Ryan are an incredible duo. Ryan did our engagement session and made us feel comfortable and confident even though we had no idea what we were doing. The photos turned out stunning.
On the wedding day, Christina felt less like a vendor and more like a best friend. She calmed me when I was nervous, helped me get gum out of my dress before the day had even started, and cheered me on from beginning to end. She truly listened, supported me, and made sure I felt heard and taken care of, and that is something money cannot buy.
I began listening to their podcast during the planning process and learned so many helpful ideas from their past weddings. Christina stayed in communication with us from the very beginning until the wedding day, and I would genuinely pay any amount of money to have them be part of our wedding again. The photos they captured are breathtaking. On the day of, Ryan photographed the groom and his party while Christina photographed the girls, giving us double the photos and two beautiful perspectives. They are talented, kind, professional, and unforgettable.
We will forever be thankful to them for giving us the most precious wedding gift—the pictures that captured it.

Absolutely Amazing!

Christina and Ryan are a dream team. We are so happy they captured our wedding. Our photos came out even more beautiful than we could ever imagine. They were great at communicating with us and helping us with our timeline. They got our photos back to us so fast, approximately 2 weeks after the wedding. Amazing! Don't hesitate to book them!

The BEST Photographers!!!!!!

Having C R Photos as our wedding photographer was one of the best and EASIEST decisions we had to make for our wedding! Aside from being INCREDIBLY talented, their warm and inviting personalities made us feel instantly comfortable. From the start, Christina and Ryan made us feel very welcomed. Leading up to our special day, they reached out to us to confirm any and all details, and provided us with helpful best practices which definitely made our day run as smooth as it did.

We are grateful to have had them shoot our engagement photos, a few mini sessions, and now our wedding. We already can’t wait for an excuse to see them and have more taken! They are two of the most genuine humans and are simply just amazing at what they do. We adore them both and cannot recommend their services enough!
We couldn’t have imagined our wedding day without them!!!

A+++++++++++++++

From the minute we saw Ryan and Christina’s work when comparing photographers for our wedding, we knew they were the ones. Your photographer in my opinion is one of the most important decisions you will make in your wedding planning and I’m so grateful that we made the right decision in choosing them. We did a lot a research and found that there are many different styles of photography. Most of what we saw was very traditional – we would describe it as light and airy, beautiful, yet ordinary. Ryan and Christina’s photography style is truly special and we were instantly drawn to their unique artistry. Their work stands out from all of the others. It is dramatic, moody, thought-provoking, and sparks real emotion. I don’t know how they do it, but they are able to capture not only the picture but also the emotion behind the moment. Their work is truly breathtaking and we have so many favorite photos that we will forever cherish.

Not only that, but they turned out to be the perfect people to work with. Ryan and Christina fully exceeded our expectations in many ways (and admittedly, I myself can be very particular!). They are incredibly passionate about what they do. We had a full engagement session with them which was the perfect way to get to know them as well as find comfort in front of the camera. We were living out of town and they were so flexible with us and our schedule, while also working around the weather. In the beginning, kissing and being lovey-dovey in front of other people was not something we were used to! But it didn’t take long before they had us laughing and dancing and smiling real smiles. And the pictures really showed that! We had a really great day with them. They spent so much time with us and we never felt rushed. And when we received our photos we were completely blown away and ecstatic that we made the right choice! I recommend doing an engagement session because it was a great opportunity to get to know your photographers and well as find comfort in front of the camera so that it won’t be so new on your wedding day!

In the planning process, Christina was very involved with me and very organized. We talked a lot over email and I sent her some of my ideas and Pinterest-inspiration which she encouraged. One of the things she did that I would have never thought of was that she had me give her a list of family members for family photos that we wanted. It would have never crossed my mind about how difficult it would be to round everyone up during cocktail hour when there is a time limit, but Christina and Ryan did it with such ease. That is only one example of how they took the stress off my plate so that I could fully enjoy every moment.

They were incredible throughout our entire day. They are so relaxed and down to earth. They looked out after us, from keeping a timeline, checking in with us intermittently, to even fixing my hair. They worked so well with our planner and our videographer. They never missed a moment, the big ones and the small ones. They caught every little detail of the wedding, even the ones that I didn’t even get to see or appreciate after putting so much work into the details! Christina and Ryan are more than photographers – they are a kind, caring, and genuine couple that only want the best for their brides and grooms. I feel lucky that I found them, and I couldn’t have imagined a better experience or better people to trust with such an important piece of our wedding.

Our photos are the perfect art pieces to represent our most treasured memories and we will forever cherish them. If there is ever a reason to do a family photoshoot in the future (god-willing!), we know that we will be reaching out to them.

Christina And Ryan were a dream!!

Right from the beginning of our relationship with C R Photos, we felt so at ease. Their reputation for excellence preceded them, and all the photos we had seen were so beautiful. They helped us navigate our first ever photo session together with our engagement photos, and my husband, who isn’t normally comfortable in front of a camera, was able to have fun, be guided for posing and laugh through the whole thing!
Our wedding was in Mid-October, at Pomona at Blue Barn Cidery, in the evening. Ryan and Christina were able to help us make the decision to do a First Look, which were we’re nervous about, because we thought it would change the ceremony, and seeing each other for the first time, but it ended up being the best decision we made that day, as it gave us the most intimate moment alone together that we wouldn’t have had otherwise. We also still cried like babies at the ceremony! This also gave us many more stunning photos of the two of us that we truly wouldn’t have had time for if we didn’t do a first look. They captured every beautiful detail of the day, and with it being such a blur to us, it was so amazing to see the photos of dancing, and our guests, and even all the decor set up( the things you spend so much time planning for, and barely get a chance to enjoy!). On top of all of it, they truly are a dynamic duo. They will make you feel like they’ve been your friends for years, and they will keep you laughing, help you with your dress, and make sure you are 100% at your finest on your wedding day. JB and I are so so grateful to have had you two there as our friends, our photographers, and of course part of the dance party ;) Thank you thank you thank you for everything you did for us!!!

Simply the Best!

Christina and Ryan are two of the most amazing, talented, down to earth people you will ever meet. The minute you interact with them and have them photograph you, you will feel like you’ve known them forever. They truly become friends. That’s how Corey and I felt the moment Ryan did our engagement shoot and as soon as we had the pleasure of spending the day with him and Christina for my best friend’s wedding. The photos they take are immaculate. They capture every moment and detail that you could possibly hope for. They are a kick-ass team and complement each other so well. We absolutely adore our photos from the big day and they are already hanging all around our house!

The greatest photographers you could ever ask for!

Words cannot describe how absolutely amazing Ryan and Christina are! They are the sweetest couple, so fun to work with, talented, and make you feel SO comfortable behind the camera!! We had such a wonderful time with them during our engagement session, which turned out absolutely amazing! They had us laughing, dancing, and smiling the entire time!
Additionally, they were a huge part of making our wedding day so perfect and unforgettable! They were patient with our big wedding party & families and managed them well (which is not always an easy task!!). They were so kind, professional, and made the day so much fun! We even pulled Ryan into our dance circle at one point in between him snapping some awesome dance floor shots to bust a move, which everyone loved (& yes, he killed it on the dance floor I might add!!)!! They are such a blast!
I can’t even begin to put into words the stunning photos they captured of our wedding day! Not only did they get them to us so quickly, they were beyond perfect! Every single one of them! Looking at them is like reliving the day over and over again!
It is so clear that Ryan and Christina are so passionate about what they do and care about their clients! They made sure to capture all our special moments and we are so grateful to have the most amazing photos to ! We know they will be nothing less than perfect!
So happy & thankful to have had them be such an important part of our special day!!
We would ABSOLUTELY recommend C R Photos!!!

Seamless, from start to finish!

In our opinion, wedding photos are a treasure; you have these forever and they capture the rawest, more pure and just magical moments for you on your wedding day. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, I mean nothing! Christina and Ryan went above and beyond. They did our engagement photos, spent the entire day with us on our wedding and we will MOST definitely be finding a way to shoot with them in the future; with our future babies, family shoots, etc.! CR PHOTOS IS THE GOAT! Xoxo
