About

We are Radhika and Ian, a husband & wife team of wedding and lifestyle photographers. We document the deep connection & powerful work of building a marriage, because we believe in the unseen wonder of intentionally crafted relationships.

Through every part of our relationship, from being long distance during our engagement to getting to travel the world, the beauty we create when we're together still fills us with awe. We believe that your relationship deserves to be documented in all of its beauty, from a place of deep connection. Our approach drives us to connect with you beyond just surface conversation to a place of safety and openness. We want our time with you to feel like home.

We understand what it’s like to carefully build strong relationships and remember all the little moments. Our aim is to make those memories everlasting. We intentionally create an atmosphere of friendship from the moment you contact us. Through conversations and coffee dates and asking the right questions, we center ourselves on what truly matters: your relationship and marriage. At your wedding or photo session, we are by your side and your biggest advocates throughout the day. We never want to hear you say, "I blinked and it was over." With us by your side, you will live the most meaningful moments in the present and over and over again in the future.

Highly Recommend Radian!

So highly recommend Radian! Radhika & Ian are both genuinely nice people who are a pleasure to work with. They are professional and efficient, and communication was always very prompt via their online platform. I was easily able to make contact with them and schedule appropriately- Radhika is always very timely with her replies. Photos are uploaded to an online platform that make viewing easy, and they're organized in categories that are intuitive. And of course the photographs themselves- they're amazingly beautiful and something our families will cherish. So glad we picked them to document our most important moments.

Highly recommend working with Radian!

Radian Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the first meeting I knew the team would create a welcoming, non-intrusive environment while being able to capture the real essence of the day. What really stood out for me was the personalized experience Radian provides. Radian sends weekly questions/reflections to think about as couple that were really special-- as a couple team themselves, they exude an authentic passion for intentional relationships which was a great example as we went through our wedding planning. During the day, they made us feel comfortable and picked locations/shots that turned out beautifully. Once we saw the photos we were so thrilled! We wanted a lot of candid photos to capture the moment, which they definitely delivered on. Above and beyond all of this, Radhika had planned for an additional photographer to join the team for the day as her 2nd child was expected right around our wedding date. Despite going into labor LATER THAT DAY, Radhika came and shot getting ready photos which is the perfect example of how dedicated she is to her clients. We 120% recommend working with Radian!

Hire Radian for your wedding!

We were incredibly lucky to work with Radian for our wedding! Unfortunately we had to move our wedding multiple times due to Covid, but Radhika and Ian were so flexible and empathetic. They were always communicative and responsive. When the day finally came, Radhika and Ian were so easy to work with -- they were able to capture all of our special moments in a very natural way. We just received our gallery, and the photos exceeded our expectations! The lighting, colors, and angles are just stunning. And they were able to perfectly capture the tone of our wedding. Thank you, Radhika and Ian!!

We are so happy!

From our initial communication until the end product, we could not have asked for a better photographer. We felt like we made a positive connection with Radhika, and her presence was so supportive and positive during our big day. The pictures came out amazing and we are so happy with all of the pics. If I had to get married all over again, I would absolutely choose Radhika!!!

Radian Photography is Amazing!

Radhika and Ian from Radian Photography shot our engagement photos and I only have amazing things to say about them!

First of all, they were extremely responsive to emails and really took the time to figure out what my vision was for this shoot. We decided to shoot at the NC Museum of Art and they turned out beautiful!! They helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, made sure we weren’t making awkward poses, and really helped guide us to take the perfect shots. Literally three (3!!!) hours after we finished shooting they sent me edited preview photos, and a week later we had all of the photos. That turn around time is insane, and the photos turned out amazing!! Even my fiancé , who very rarely likes photos of himself, said “that’s how you know they’re good photographers, I am not photogenic and I actually look good in these photos” (even though if you ask me he is always handsome ☺️). I would highly recommend Radian photography for ANY photography services!

Stunning Photos and Easy to Work With

Radhika and Ian were our favorite vendors for our wedding. I am SO GLAD we chose them. They shot our wedding, our engagement photos, and my bridal portraits. They were so easy to work with, professional but relatable, and the pictures are absolutely stunning. They also do digital AND film. They were the only photographers in this price range that did both. They also surprised us a couple days after the wedding with a little video of the wedding day. We both were in tears after watching it. We also got so many compliments from our wedding guests and family about our photographers. My mother in law who is really hard to impress raved about them and how friendly and easy to work with they were. I was freaking out about the timeline all day and they were so patient and reassuring. Seriously book them. They are worth every penny and your photos are the only thing you have after the wedding. And any photos by Radian will be amazing.

We understand how important it is to choose the absolute best photographer for your wedding or engagement photos. After searching for the best fit, we finally selected Radian Photography — and we couldn't be happier! As a husband and wife team, they captured nuances, angles, details, and perspectives, one photographer, alone, could not. And they shot with digital and film (we loved seeing the same moments in both). Wedding planning is stressful enough, and Radian's process was seamless and responsive. Their professionalism and experience came through during the entire process from booking to execution. We couldn't be happier with the story they told through their photos.

Radian Photography does amazing work! Their photos capture the beauty of life's real moments, and the colors and light are spectacular. We have enjoyed our shoots with Radhika and Ian, and we will treasure the pictures they took for a lifetime. They are also very easy to work with and have excellent communication. We'll work with them again for sure!

Radhika and Ian are the dream team to work with! We met with them once and quickly booked them for our wedding this past November. Ever since our first meeting with them, we knew we were in good hands. While Radhika and Ian are extremely professional, they know how to have a good time! They make you feel instantly comfortable in front of the camera, to the point you forget they are there and you can really focus on each other and the moments they are capturing.

With them, no detail goes unnoticed. Once you book them, you have access to a lot of great information that will help you plan engagement photos as well as prepare for your wedding day photos at well. After our wedding, we were able to have them over to our house to go over our wedding photos together. It was really special to have them show us their favorite photos and for us to look at them all together. And the final kicker - they gave us a beautiful rose gold USB of all of our wedding photos - something we will cherish forever!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Perhaps the most important part of Radian Photography is their incredible eye behind a camera. I never cease to be amazed at the beauty they see and how they are able to capture it. Following them on Instagram was perhaps the best decision I made in the past month. But on top of that, their personalities are warm and inviting, which is so important when working with someone on your wedding day, for family photos or at your big event. You want someone to make you feel more comfortable, while still capturing stunning images. Radian Photography is perfect for both.
