The best photographer!

Rhaniel is amazing. We hired him for our engagement shoot and after being wowed by the results, we knew we had to have him on our wedding team. And he did not disappoint. So many beautiful shots- both posed and candid (my favorites). He has a way of using natural light to create stunning photos that we will enjoy for years to come. Not only that, but he made us feel incredibly comfortable during the shoots and I really felt like he was there to sincerely make our day the best. Highly recommend him.

Joseph (Groom)

Rhaniel was nothing short of amazing before and during our wedding day. Professionalism, humility and attention to detail are only a few things to expect when choosing him for your special day. He is very passionate of his craft and takes pride in his work. Rhaniel’s work ethics definitely sit at a higher standard and will work with you in whatever you need. Behind the camera, he sets the tone and knows how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Rhaniel was very quick to respond to all of our questions and took initiative in handling all of our worries with the logistics on our wedding day. Rhaniel was nothing but kind, attentive and easy to talk to. We were very pleased with our engagement/wedding photos and we can not thank him enough for all his hard work and quick turn around with our photos!

Best photographer ever!

BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER! We hired him for our wedding on December 14th and he was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and very personable. He was a true joy to work with and we can't wait to see our wedding photos!

We can not begin to explain how amazing Rhaniel was on our wedding day. Rhaniel has an energy and passion he brings to his photography that can not be described in words. He made my fiance and I feel completely comfortable on our wedding day.

During our entire day Rhaniel was professional, funny, and most of all friendly! He made us both feel as though we had been friends with him for years which helped to create some of the most breathtaking, genuine, and natural photos we had ever seen.

He helped us to adhere to a tight schedule and was even able to capture some epic photographs on the dancefloor. Rhaniel was definitely not afraid to get in the middle of the action or even climb a hill in order to get some of the best shots possible.

We can't thank Rhaniel enough for helping out with our special day! It wouldn't have been the same without him.

Rhaniel is an absolute treasure! If my husband and I were to name several things about Rhaniel we would have to say he’s a lifesaver, extremely professional, and absolutely amazing at what he does. My husband and I are not photogenic at all, but Rhaniel made us feel so comfortable, through his welcoming and friendly attitude we felt as if we’ve known him as a close friend for a long time, and we are glad to call him a great friend. He is very professional in what he does, and gave us plenty of knowledge about what to expect on our wedding day. After receiving our album and photos from Rhaniel, my husband and I were just in awe with how beautiful the photos came out. We have our album on our coffee table at home, and every time we have company over everyone talks about how beautiful the photos and album he put together for us is. If you’re looking for a photographer to photograph your special day, Rhaniel is without a doubt who we recommend.

YES, YESS, and YESSS! Or in the words of Rhaniel, "YASSSSSSS!" Rhaniel is absolutely amazing at everything he does! He is always prompt at responding, holds himself to a very high and professional standard. First thing that stood out to me and my husband was when we first met Rhaniel, is his punctuality and his extremely positive attitude. During our initial consultation meeting with him, he made sure to get to the location on time (he gave us a call letting us know he was there which was 15 minutes early from our appointed time, and told us to take our time). Also he made sure to not only learn about our specific details of our wedding, but also about me and my husband. On top of that, this point is where my husband and I absolutely adore Rhaniel and our main reason for selecting him. He is absolutely honest, and did not sugar coat anything. My husband and I had gone on several meetings with other vendors and had noticed, that they would give us this salesperson type feeling and would either agree with everything we requested, or right off the bat recommend their most expensive package to us trying to sell themselves. My husband and I weren't concerned about the budget for our photographer, it's just there's a feeling you get when you know someone is trying hard to sell something to you. Now on the other hand with Rhaniel, he gave us information on his packages and made sure to explain why and go over in detail which package would be perfect to our needs for the day (he didn't oversell or recommend us something we didn't need). With him we got the feeling , he was looking out for the best interest for couples. You can also tell he is a very kind and truth worthy individual. He has such positive energy coming from him that makes you feel extremely comfortable to be around. By the end of our consultation meeting with Rhaniel, he asked if we had any questions, and we instantly asked him how do we book him (At this point we already knew he was the perfect fit for us an

Summary of my experience:

• beautifully shot engagement and wedding photos
• he was a consummate professional
• the turn around time for the photos was quick and true

Rhaniel was an amazing photographer! I already knew from his portfolio that his photos would be spectacular but what I was surprised by was the professionalism with which he approached his role. Prior to the engagement shoot and the wedding he was willing to accommodate our busy schedule by coming out to meet us in person or over skype to hammer out the details and what we really wanted. He took great care in making sure he had the details that would allow our individual personalities to shine through the photos.

On the day of the wedding he went above and beyond by collaborating with the wedding coordinator to ensure a smooth timeline. He was great at making us feel at ease by handling details that we did not know would arise (i.e. coordinating the “first look” meeting so that we would not run into each other). It was clear that he is a veteran of many weddings. The wedding day was smooth and the photos were beautiful.

He said he would have the photos within a few weeks. I knew that these things take time because he would have to sort through hundreds of photos and edit specific ones so I knew I would be waiting patiently. Apparently I did not have to wait long because he provided a link to a full online album within a couple weeks. I would highly recommend Rhaniel if you are looking for a wedding photographer that will go above and beyond and approaches his craft with the highest level of professionalism.

Ray Was Our Second Shooter

Rhaniel was the second shooter to our main photographer. Although he came highly recommended, we have never been so disappointed to see our final images from him. It got to the point where our main photographer refunded us partially to apologize for his work. We got married on a sunny day, and every single photo we received from Ray was over exposed, blurry or shot at some odd angle that did not make sense. Furthermore, he failed to capture even a single photo of the groom and his groomsmen getting ready and zero pictures of the groom and his father helping him get ready. He got the most blurry detail shots as well, to the point where I cannot find a single good one to use in our wedding album. I was frustrated to tears-- our primary photographer even tried to re-edit Ray's photos and it still could not be fixed. I would not recommend hiring him.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
