Raluca Rodila Photography

Hiring Raluca to capture our wedding photos was one of the best decisions we made in the planning process. Yes, her photos are stunning and capture the joy and love we felt that day, but more importantly, she was a gigantic help on the day-of, assuaging any anxiety, navigating lots of family photos, and making sure our schedule stayed on track. We also recommend hiring her for an engagement photo shoot. Because we had done the engagement shoot, we were immediately more relaxed on the day of the wedding, knowing Raluca better and not feeling so awkward in front of the camera. We will forever cherish her creativity and art from our wedding day!

I cannot sing Raluca's praises enough! Right from the start she was so nice and punctual for the multiple meetings we had. We lived several hours away from her, but she made the virtual meetings special and personal and made it clear from the start that she wanted to fulfill whatever vision we had for our wedding day. She was so flexible with us and a true joy to work with! On the day of, she arrived early and had fun interacting with us as we got ready. Throughout the day, she was the glue holding everything together and keeping us organized and on schedule. She added so much fun to the day and made it that much more special - she felt like family. I couldn't imagine picking anyone else to be our photographer in hindsight. The photos truly captured the day PERFECTLY and are just stunning. If you can work with Raluca, you should!

Let me tell you...if you want some gorgeous photos Raluca is THE BEST!
I actually met Raluca while DJing a wedding we were both working together. She was incredibly sweet, caring an detailed. But when I saw the photos...they blew my mind. I need some new marketing photo for my business and knew I had to hire her to do them. And then entire process was great. From our conversation about idea, Raluca was into whatever your vision is. She truly cares about her clients and the product she put forth. And of course, I was amazed by her work on our stuff. So if you are looking for your photographer, this one is AWESOME!

Stop looking, just book Raluca now. We were getting married out of town, so I was at the mercy of reviews on sites. Thank GOODNESS I found Raluca. There were a couple of other photographers I had looked at, but I was just drawn back to her work.
Our day would not have been near as peaceful and amazing had it not been for this stellar human. She cares deeply and it shows. She provides the perfect balance of care and kindness with intentional direction.
Everyone at the wedding could not say enough about her, she was like a friend you've known forever and has an incredible eye.
Do not second guess. This is your person.

Right from the beginning, I knew Raluca was going to be our photographer. Before I had paid her a single dollar, she had a 45 minute conversation with me to see if we would vibe (I don't know how anyone could NOT vibe with her) and she even offered to help me with my photo schedule if I went with a different photographer. I had a short list before our conversation but I was willing to restructure my budget just to make sure Raluca was our photographer. We ended up doing both our engagement and wedding photos with her and it was the best money I spent in the whole process. As a couple who doesn't take a lot of photos and is generally uncomfortable with being the center of attention, she really brought us out of our shells and we couldn't have been happier with the final product. She won't let you down and she will be a bright sunshine to any occasion. My family still talks about her and how delightful she was and it's been almost 5 months since my wedding.

Raluca was THE MOST amazing photographer I could ever ask for for our wedding. She was so caring, thoughtful, organized, talented...I could go on and on. From the moment she met us, she treated us like a long-time friend and made it her mission that our wedding was perfect. Our entire wedding party absolutely loved her. Highly recommend!

Stop looking for other photographers, this is it. Raluca is the BEST photographer I have ever worked with. She can take any non-photogenic couple and turn them into absolute models. On your wedding day (and the months before) you spend all day with your photographer. Raluca is fun, quick, hilarious, and a pleasure to work with. Of all our vendors, she was my absolute favorite. If you want to relax on your wedding day, have stunning photos, and make a new friend, hire Raluca. 12/10 would recommend.

100/10 recommend! We knew we were gonna go with Raluca given our past experiences with her. She was by far the best decision we made, and our favorite vendor on the day of. Having been part of weddings where Raluca was the photographer, we knew her Quality was great. But more then that, she will make your day FUN! We enjoyed her humor and kindness, but so did our bridal party and guests. We received many compliments about our photographer. When we got our pictures back, we couldn't stop looking at them. We loved every single one of them. Look no further, this is the best choice you can make.

I've always heard that, when planning a wedding, never skimp on your photographer. Whether a simple backyard wedding or lavish event, it's worth the price of a great photographer to document this day well. When I first found Raluca's portfolio, I loved her work and knew she'd be worth it. What I signed up for was so much more than pictures. From phone conversations, to sit-downs, to day-of talks, Raluca took time to learn Mike and I and determine what mattered most to us in documenting our wedding.

Raluca remains one of the hardest, most joyfully-working person I have ever met. Her sweet spirit, charisma, and sense of humor on our wedding day was a blessing in and of itself. Everyone felt so at ease with her, and it genuinely felt like having a friend in your corner. As we've regrouped with each other, friends, and family since the wedding, a common thread in our conversation is how our photographer stood out: "She was so easy to work with, "She seemed genuinely happy to be there," and "Where did you find her?" All these comments have come from people who haven't even seen her work - just her beautiful, joyful spirit. She has a servant's heart that will make anyone smile - no aching faces here! I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Raluca is one of the kindest, most talented people I have ever met. From the very beginning her sweet personality made it so easy to be comfortable, which was so important to me to have my picture taken. I'm very camera shy and she was able to direct me and get me to open up, and we got the most amazing photos out of it. She made every step of the way so easy and such a pleasure, and I could not recommend her enough. I wanted fantastic photos that I could be proud of, and I got those and a new friend!

I had the pleasure of having Raluca shoot my wedding mid pandemic and when I say she was right there beside me, I mean that! My family and friends loved her and so did my husband and I. We will be booking future shoots with her for our life milestones! She has a magical touch with the camera and a personality that is so loving and contagious! Thank you for being everything for us on our wedding day and afterwards!

It was wonderful to have Raluca as the photographer for our wedding! Not only are her photos amazing, but she was so helpful and personable through the whole planning process and the wedding day itself. She truly cared about us and wanted the entire day to be really special, not just the photos. Of course, the photos turned out so incredible - we got lots of compliments on both our engagement and wedding photos. She is great at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera and that is reflected in the photos we received. We are so thankful for the opportunity we had to have Raluca as our photographer and for the chance to get to know her throughout the whole wedding experience!

Raluca was the cherry on top of our wedding. She was so kind, fun and sweet and out of all the photographers we checked out, her photos were the best. She’s easy going, professional and makes you feel stunning 100% of the time. I could go on and on and on about her and I will recommend her to everybody!

Raluca came highly recommended by one of my good friends who had the most beautiful wedding photos! From the moment you meet Raluca she is so warm and friendly and really makes you feel so comfortable and at ease. It can always be a bit awkward having your photos taken, but Raluca always makes it fun and really gets you laughing for those great candid shots. Our wedding pictures were seriously amazing and we have also worked with her for our anniversary photos. They keep getting better every time! She really knows how to capture people at their most beautiful! I can’t say enough great things about her, but if you are looking for someone who is insanely kind and so talented, Raluca is your person!

When first contacting her she asks if you would like a friend in her questionnaire and that’s what she really becomes. She will jump through hoops to get that perfect picture. She is the perfect hype man for people like me who are awkward in front of a camera. She’s sweet as can be. I can’t say enough great things about this photographer.
