We are so incredibly happy we chose Reese to be our wedding photographer!! He was able to capture all the special moments…every smile, laugh, and tear…but more importantly, he was able to capture all the feelings and emotions. We love looking through our wedding book and being able to relive the day through the moments he captured. He was so easy to work with, and he really understood exactly what we wanted from our wedding photos. I would recommend him 100 times over for any special event!!! ❤️

Could not be happier!!!
We are so incredibly happy with our experience with Reese!! He went above and beyond to capture our wedding and we were blown away by the pictures. We really loved that he focuses on capturing real and intimate moments with not only us but our loved ones as well. He made us feel so comfortable and always reminded us to soak in the moment. We would recommend Reese and Renee 110% to anyone wanting to capture a special event. They take the time to really get to know you and even sent us extremely thoughtful gifts to celebrate. We could not be more grateful for them and will cherish the photos he captured forever!!

Captured the joy of our wedding day
Reese is not only incredibly talented, but he is a genuinely wonderful person. He was able to capture the joy of our wedding day from start to finish and kept us present in each moment. I loved every part of our wedding day, and choosing Reese to photograph was one of our best decisions. He adds special touches to everything to maintain the joy of marriage throughout the process. Reese genuinely cares, and it shows in his work and his presence.

Our Wedding Day
We were fortunate enough to work with both Reese and Renee on our wedding day. Reese and Renee are so down to earth and kind, they made us feel incredibly at ease throughout the day, helping to keep us on track but also reminding us to slow down and take in the moments that would pass so quickly. Reese and Renee knew when to take charge and when to blend into the background in the best of ways, which allowed them to capture even the most intimate of moments between us and our friends and family - moments we will truly cherish for a lifetime. Reese and Renee were truly the best decision we made for our wedding day when it comes to vendors.

The engagement session I dreamed of
We had the pleasure of working with Reese for our engagement pictures and I am so happy we booked during our vacation! He made us feel so comfortable through the entire process and best of all we had FUN! Their prompt responses when communicating was excellent and we even received a few teaser shots the same day! I highly recommend their work to those looking for special pictures to cherish forever!

Wonderful wedding photographer!
When we started our search for a wedding photographer, we were in over our heads. We decided that above all, we wanted a photographer to capture authentic and not overly edited moments. With Reese, we got that and so much more! He is one of the nicest and most authentic people we have ever met, and he is wonderful at his job! Reese was very helpful and responsive leading up to our wedding. He brought a lot of experience and suggestions to the table while still allowing us to build our own ideal day. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and handled family dynamics with ease. He also seemed to be around to capture every single shot - and had a blast through it all! And, as we had hoped, our pictures turned out authentically beautiful. We really cannot say enough good things about him, and highly recommend him!

The BEST Experience
We first contacted Reese & Renee after seeing their work online. The quality and style of their images stood out in a crowd of wedding photographers. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s both modern and timeless.
Their vibe aligned exactly with what we were seeking. After speaking with them over the phone, it became clear that we had found a great match, both in terms of style and personality.
The connection and ease we found with them shows through in the final product. We are generally very awkward and have a tendency to pull silly faces the minute a camera is in our vicinity. Reese knew exactly how to make us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend.
We also did an engagement shoot before the wedding and the pictures turned out amazing! It was useful to practice posing and working together ahead of our wedding. We have the most beautiful photos from that magical time right before the big day.
They really captured every moment of the day and was able to tell a story through the pictures. We are SO thankful we were able to work with them and definitely recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Friendly photographer, perfect photos
It was a pleasure to work with Reese for my surprise proposal photo session.
Reese was very helpful and responsive throughout the whole process. I was pretty nervous when trying to figure out the details, Reese email me back quickly even though it was during the Christmas holidays. He gave a lot of thoughts and advice, and even set up a online meeting to make sure we communicated well about our plan.
The proposal turned out a huge success. Reese made this session fun and easy. And the photos are impeccable.
Overall, I feel like I'm working with a friend who cares a lot about what the photos mean to me and my fiancee. I highly recommend Reese.

We are so grateful to have had Reese + Renee at our wedding! They are such a beautiful souls who are so welcoming, present, + truly care about people... not to mention, they capture incredible photos :) Their style is very much "documentary style," which we absolutely loved... every time we look at our photos, we feel the energy + emotion in everyone who was captured, instantly feel transported back into the most special day of our lives.

Intimate and artistic memories, captured for a lifetime!
There are so many fantastic things to say about Reese & Renee that it’s hard to know where to start!!
We wanted candid, artistic, and intimate photos capturing our wedding day, and thought that might be difficult to find; needless to say, we were blown away by the work of Reese and Reene when they were recommended to us. I felt like I personally knew all of the people and places in their photos after looking through their albums on their website!!
We worked individually with Reese; leading up to the wedding day, we felt incredibly encouraged and supported. Even through a move from Hawaii to Michigan and the addition of two new family members, we STILL felt like a priority, and knew we were always on the same page. He had such great advice and sentiments about marriage and how to best savor our special day while we were in the moment, and we absolutely cherished that.
When the big day rolled around, we couldn’t have been in better hands, and every one of our guests thought so too! Everyone felt so at ease, and that energy showed up in his absolutely stunning photography.
We are beyond grateful to have such beautifully-captured memories of our wedding, and I can’t recommend Reese highly enough!!

The Best Wedding Photographer!
I couldn't imagine a better wedding photographer - seriously. We contacted Reese alongside a few other photographers early in our wedding planning process and Reese completely stood out to us not only becuase of his amazing portfolio of images but because of his warm and easy personality.
Then, 6 months later when COVID hit and we had to postpone our wedding Reese was incredibly professional, calm, and flexible with us through an uncertain time. We ended up picking a new date with only 3 months notice and Reese was so helpful and flexible adapting to our new plans.
During the actual wedding, Reese was amazing. He captured every special moment and everything felt so genuine. Even when it started downpouring during our outdoor ceremony Reese had a positive attitude that was totally infectious. He even made my mom, who is not very comfortable in front of the camera, feel at ease and now we have AMAZING photos with her that mean so much.
Reese really took the time to understand our family dynamics and unique situations and his care and attention I think come through in the moments he captured. We LOVE our wedding photos and we feel so lucky to have gotten to work with Reese!

Extraordinary!
Reese and Renee were are favorite part of our wedding day. They had an ease and confidence about them that made them so fun to work with! They both did an amazing job capturing our candid moments of our day, and looking back at our photos we can feel the real emotion of the people in the photos.
Before our wedding Reese and Renee planned a video call with us to get to know us, which eased our nerves on the day of, as we felt like we knew them so much more! They did a great job of coaching & telling us what we could do to make our photos look even more amazing.
My husband and I are not used to being in front of a camera, so the coaching and prompting from Reese and Renee really made us feel more comfortable during our "golden hour" more intimate photos.
We 100% recommend them for their confidence, attitude and ease they brought to our wedding day! So much so, that our friends have chosen to have them photograph their wedding this upcoming summer. They are one of a kind photographers and brought amazing energy and joy to our day!

Great Save the Date session
Our experience with Reese and Renee was perfect! Reese called us a few weeks before our session to get to know us, which made us feel comfortable. We traveled to Hawaii all the way from Tulsa so getting to know them was helpful for us. The shoot went great! We love our photos! I can’t thank Reese enough for doing such a great job! If we were getting married in Hawaii we would definitely use them again!!

What Are You Waiting For???
When you set out to hire a wedding/engagement photographer, sometimes you get lucky and you find yourself with a photographer who just happens to do wedding/engagement shoots. Saying that about Reese would still be selling him short. He's amaazzzinggg. He's a true artist, but it also feels like he could be your next door neighbor. Naturally charming and extremely professional. He's noticeably having a ball behind the camera and it's contagious! Reese is also one of the kindest, most thoughtful, and genuine people that you'll find on the island. We were lucky enough to book Reese for an engagement shoot back in February. That shoot was incredible. Just check out the shots in the water taken by Reese while on his surfboard!
We have him and his wife booked for our larger wedding celebration next year and we absolutely cannot wait!! We couldn't be more confident in his ability, his eye, and his infectious enthusiasm.

Hauula Backyard Wedding
I found Reese & Renee through Instagram, my now husbands family had recommendations but none of them had the look I wanted. Then I used a hashtag for Oahu photographers and after lots of scrolling I stumbled onto their page. I was instantly in love with their work. I’m so happy we took a chance on them, Reese was open and honest the whole way through and answered every single question I had. We had a super helpful FaceTime meeting with him on our day of timeline, and that helped us so much. Day of It was more like Reese was a family member than someone there to take pictures. He meshed so well and I feel like you see it in our pictures. Thank you both for capturing the most gorgeous memories of an unforgettable day.

What a wonderful morning
Reese and Renee did such an amazing job and provided us with gorgeous photos! Reese was very helpful and accommodating with planning out every detail for our surprise proposal photo session. All the emails and especially the video call was extremely helpful in getting every detail just right so we knew exactly what was going to happen the morning of the session. Reese made sure everything went perfectly and offered suggestions to make the photos even better. After the session we met Renee who is also very delightful! Reese and Renee are very friendly and take beautiful photos and we would definitely go back to them. We can't recommend them enough, they did an amazing job capturing a morning we will never forget!

Just perfect
We can only highly recommend Reese & Renee. When we decided to get married in Hawaii just my husband, myself and our 2 children (thousand miles from our home in France!) and started our researches to organize our wedding, we found them on Instagram. When we saw their unbelievable skills we decided to get in touch with them. From the beginning they have been so friendly and soooo helpful answering all kinds of questions a non-local would ask! And believe us, we had tons of questions! If it wasn´t for them our wedding would not have been the same at all. From the spot to the best ceremony officiant and all the advice they gave us, our wedding was thanks to them the 3rd most beautiful day of our lives together with the birth of our 2 children. Thanks to Reese I was feeling so calm and happy because I knew he had everything under control. He did an amazing job with our kids, capturing the funniest and also the most emotional moments. We really can´t thank him enough for being there and transcribing so well our emotions, especially for all our relatives & friends who were not here with us. Just go ahead with your eyes closed, R&R will make the magic happen!

My fiance booked Reese and Renee all the way from DC to take photos of the surprise proposal. They were in constant communication and were very accommodating when trying to make sure the weather was perfect for a sunset proposal. My fiance and I felt a bit awkward at first since we're not used to getting photos taken but they made it SO easy. They are so super friendly and funny and let us enjoy our special moment while documenting in the background. It's now been a couple weeks and the images came out beautifully. We're so excited and proud to share them with our family and friends! We can't thank R&R enough for capturing one of the happiest moments of our lives! 110% recommend them!

Amazing photography
What Reese and Renee do is mind-blowing. Their talent creates a story of the whole day. Each photo is amazing in its own way whether it is posed or candid. They really get to know you as a couple and really understand your relationship. Their presence alone was so calming for me as the bride day of. I felt like they brought so much more than photography to the table. And it is amazing how you also don't even notice when they are taking pictures! I cannot say enough good things about them. Beautiful couple, beautiful photos. We will cherish all our photos for the rest of our lives.

The best decision we made re:wedding FOR REALS.
I can't say enough about how awesome it was to work with Reese and Renee. They immediately felt like part of the family - so much so, in fact, that most of my friends thought they were either friends or family. It was exactly what we wanted. The pictures perfectly captured the day, and even though I can't deny there were a few rocky moments, you'd have no idea by looking through our wedding album. These pictures are all over our home, but we get to look at some of our favorites the minute we walk in the front door. We can't thank or recommend Reese and Renee enough.

We are so happy we booked r&r for our wedding day!
My partner and I planned a destination wedding on the Big Island of Hawaii and spent a ton of time researching photographers online. Our approach for selecting a wedding day photographer was pretty pragmatic: we wanted two photographers, we wanted to feel good about the overall aesthetic of their work, and we didn't want to spend thousands and thousands of dollars for photos (which is really easy to do when hiring a wedding photographer).
There are A LOT of extremely talented photographers in Hawaii, so making a decision was incredibly hard. We found Reese and Renee's site pretty early on in our search, and were immediately struck by the emotion they were able to capture through their candid and photojournalistic style. This being said, there were other photographers we also liked, so we reached out to them all in an effort to make an informed decision for our big day. R&R were super responsive and genuinely friendly in all of their communication with us from the get-go - this is something I can't say about all of the photographers we contacted - "island time" is a very real thing. Pricing packages for photographers in Hawaii also seem to vary quite wildly, which is something else we had to factor in to our decision.
After a couple weeks of communicating with some photographers, we’d narrowed our decision down to two different options - R&R being one of them - and actually booked with the other choice.
Long story short, I reached out to the photographers we’d contracted with about 3 months prior to our wedding date to check-in with them about logistics, etc. At this time, we were informed that they could no longer commit to our wedding date.
I immediately followed up with R&R and we were relieved to find out they were available for our wedding date. I felt weird about reaching out to them and explaining our situation after having told them six months earlier that we’d made another decision - but they were so kind and gracious and remembered so many details from our initial conversation still that it ended up being not weird at all. We had a FaceTime convo with them and completed an online questionnaire they sent us to get to know us better. My partner and I generally hate this kind of performative acting rigamarole but R&R made it pretty painless.
When R&R showed up on the Big Island for our wedding in March 2019, it really did feel like they were old friends. They were funny and charismatic and blended in so naturally with the chaos of our day that there were times we forgot they were there with their cameras.
We got a sneak peek the day after our wedding, and the whole edited gallery was completed and sent to us 3 weeks later. We are so, so, sooooo very happy with our photos! We’ve looked at them a zillion times in the past few months and feel so incredibly grateful that we chose R&R to capture these memories for us. It is clear that R&R sincerely listened to everything we said in our initial conversations about who we are, what we were looking for, and what we hoped our wedding, and wedding photos, would turn out like. Despite the initial panic of having our first photographers canceling on us, the outcome could not have been happier - we love R&R and each and every photo that they took of us and our loved ones on our wedding day. These two are pure magic behind the lens, and they have a truly intuitive and organic sense of capturing images that are timeless, beautiful, authentic, and even a little cheeky at times.
100% recommend R&R for whatever your photography needs may be. They are easy to work with, boundlessly talented, and genuinely heartfelt and loving people.

Wonderful keepsake memories, Great communication
Super professional and prompt from the get go. Kept me on task (in a VERY good way) but were easy peasy and to work with and captured truly lovely moments from the ceremony, before and after. WORTH EVERY PENNY. So flexible on the day of (and even drove me to my ceremony location.) Switched things up the day before and it was no problem (getting ready location) Unobtrusive and kind. Really a dream to work with. I didn't have any specific instructions and let Reese do his thing. The result was lovely.

We couldn't recommend these guys highly enough!
Reese and Renee were beyond amazing right from the start! They were a huge help with suggestions on wedding and honeymoon planning in Hawaii. Even though Renee couldn't be part of our day ( due to the arrival of their beautiful daughter the evening before) Reese kept us completely up to date with what was happening and had a brilliant stand in ready to go without skipping a beat.
Our main aim for the day was to capture the emotion and off hand moments which are so present in all of our wedding photos. When we look back through our photos we are instantly taken back to feelings of the day.
I could not recommend Reese & Renee highly enough and there will be no regrets if you decide to have them as part of your big day!
