    Beautiful day and photos

    I had a family photo session scheduled with Andrea, but due to the icy roads, Damian came out for our session. Andrea was super responsive throughout, and we were grateful that Damian put chains on his car to come out. Most importantly, I have amazing photos of my family in the breathtaking scenery. We spent three hours with Damian in below freezing temperatures, and he was patient, knowledgeable, and positive the whole time. We also all felt covid safe as Damian wore a mask and also kept a general distance from us. I’m beyond delighted with the whole experience.

    Genius photographer

    My fiancé hired Damian to capture our proposal and boyyyy was I completely and utterly SHOCKED. I actually chatted with Damian while my (then boyfriend) and I were walking around this viewpoint in Yosemite at 5 am. He played it totally cool and acted like he was up there every morning.. turns out he was there to capture the best day of my life thus far. He sent me 10 pictures the DAY OF because I couldn't wait to share them with family/friends and within a week I had the rest. They are so gorgeous and I truly could not have chosen a more talented photographer on my own. He is the best.

    We are ecstatic you love the photos so much, Carly! It truly was a pleasure adventuring with you two and being a part of such a special day for you!! : D

    I am absolutely so thankful to have ran across Damian and his photography! I was so nervous about being in front of a professional camera, and he made me feel so comfortable! My fiancee and I are extremely satisfied with his talent and top skills! We are super excited to see how our photos turned out and even more eager to have this duo photograph our wedding day!

    RiLee Photography's reply:

    It was such a pleasure working with you both too, Kimberly! Thanks again!

    I can’t gush enough about Damien and Trev. We love the photos and moments they captured. It was great having photographers so familiar with the park, they made sure we had a great variety of shots with gorgeous backdrops. They were punctual, patient, and chill. I’ve never hired a professional photographer before and these two made us feel so comfortable and relaxed it was easy breezy.

    Yosemite Pros!

    We thoroughly enjoyed having Damian and Trevor as our photographers! They made the whole experience so easy. We told them a few places we were interested in shooting at and they made sure to plan out the best route and find the best places to get photos away from the crowds (which isn't easy in Yosemite!). They were never in the way, great at helping crowd control at the ceremony, and also made sure we got all of the photos we wanted. We paid extra for the film package and boy was it worth it! There was a small delay in getting the physical prints to us, but we were blown away with them when we did receive them. Would highly recommend RiLee Photography to anyone looking for wedding photography at a great value in Yosemite!

    We had Damian and Trev shoot our elopement wedding in Yosemite National park at Glacier point and Taft point. We couldn't have been more pleased with them, they really looked after us, made the day exciting and adventurous which is exactly what we wanted. Their passion for what they do really comes through and I don't think we could have found better photographers.

    RiLee Photography's reply:

    Hi Amy!! Your words really mean a lot! Thank you so much.

    Damian and Trev are fantastic photographers and amazing people. They are speedy, responsive, professional, talented, and provide a great value. In every way, they went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. They met us at 5am to hike Four Mile Trail up to Glacier point, took pictures all along they way, found time to set up good lighting at Glacier Point, and captured our ceremony beautifully. After the ceremony, they took us on a real adventure around the park, finding one exciting, creative, and unique photo shoot location after another. At our reception they captured both the atmosphere and every combination of our guests. And even after their time with us was officially over, they went out of their way to brave Yosemite Saturday afternoon traffic to come with us back to our campsite for some fun shots of the two of us in our wedding gear at our tent. We are so grateful to them for sharing their talents with us, and for giving us an even deeper appreciation of Yosemite and its grandeur.

    After our wedding, Damian and Trev were very speedy about delivering our photos to us. We are thrilled with the results, and will look fondly on them for years to come--both as great memories of the event, and also as a constant call to adventure in our marriage, which they both so encouraged and inspired in their adventuresome photo shoots with us throughout the day.

    Of all they ways we've reminisced about our wedding weekend, we just keep coming back to how grateful and lucky we feel to have had Damian and Trev as our photographers. They even made great friends with our guests and offered suggestions for fun new hikes and sites for us to try and to see next time we visit the park!

    We can't recommend these guys highly enough. They are the best!

    Loved working with Damian. He made everything less stressful and perfect. My pictures were amazing and by far the best I’ve ever had taken. I will be going back to him the next time I need pictures taken.

    We paid extra for the second photographer and it was well worth it. They collaborated with us to get us countless wonderful pictures. They even picked some prime locations inside and outside the venue that would be good shots based on the time of day so we'd have photos you'd swear were touched up.

    They were incredibly accommodating, letting us know that the original amount of time we had booked them for was less important than ensuring we had every memory captured.


    Best of all, they stepped up when our videographer was a no-show, offering to film the ceremony - they single-handedly saved out wedding!

    RiLee Photography's reply:

    Thanks so much you two, its so great to hear you're thoroughly satisfied with the photos! It was really a great shoot and beautiful day all around! So nice to have met you, too!

    We had so much fun taking family photos with Damian! We love the pictures and the mini tour he gave us around the park. My kids said they are happy to do more portrait sessions if they are all like the one we did with Damian (they are usually reluctant participants). All this and a quick turnaround to boot. We will definitely us him again the next time we are in Yosemite!

    Damian did an incredible job! He was in great communication with me once my wife and I locked him in for our day. He stayed in the area the night before and started that morning with photos of my wife and her bridesmaids. He let me know when they were headed to the venue to take photos of my groomsmen. Then, throughout the wedding he would pull us aside to a well lite area for photos. The rest of the night Damian was capturing candids and generally following the flow of the night! It was incredible, I wouldn't have had it any other way! Getting the photos after was so exciting and very quick!! My wife and I couldn't wait to print them off!

    When my fiancé and I got engaged, I immediately knew we wanted Damien to shoot our wedding. Having known him for a couple years and getting to know his style with outdoor photography, we knew he’d be a perfect match for our wedding in the redwoods of the Santa Cruz mountains. He did not disappoint! He was extremely professional the entire day, but also made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. He took photos the whole day - from the afternoon when I was getting ready with my bridesmaids, all the way until the end of the night when my husband and I left. We couldn’t be happier with his work or the memories he captured of us!!

    As a wedding coordinator, I had the pleasure of working with RiLee, specifically Trev Lee, for a particularly unique wedding last wedding season: the location was far back in the hills/mountains around Yosemite area and the weather for the weekend was rain....rain.....cold.....very cold....and more rain. The couple had planned on a hilltop wedding with a view of Half Dome in the background and an outdoor reception. Despite such interesting conditions, Mr. Lee managed to get some wonderful shots capturing the succinct and rainy ceremony while also respecting the Native American values of the groom’s family, and was just what a photographer should be in those special moments: there and ready for the shots without being in the way of the guests’ view or being too intrusive in the moment. He also worked hard to snap moments of warmth and love as the wedding party and group squished into the location’s cabin for the cake cutting and did wonderfully in working with not-so-easy-to-work-with indoor evening lighting in a very crowded space! His flexibility to document the day with the changing conditions was wonderful and having seen Mr. Riley’s work as well and seeing the professionalism they use when discussing their passion for photography as well as the team relationship they have in talking about their events, I’d be happy to work with RiLee as single unit photographer or as a team to capture any events, small or large!

    Outstanding photography by Damian. He knew the exact locations to shoot, was super affordable and overall just a cool guy to hang with. We had an amazing experience and he really captured the essence of the beauty in Yosemite. Thanks Damian!

    Trev and Damian are incredibly talented and professional. They shot our wedding in Sacramento - the process was smooth, and we are absolutely thrilled with our pictures! They have a very calm, professional presence, which is of great value when you're dealing with lots of people and the busyness of a wedding. Highly recommend them - we'd hire them again and again!

    Trevor shot our outdoor wedding in 2017 and we were amazed at the images! He was great about communication right off the bat, very flexible about everything (it ended up raining), made everyone comfortable and took incredible pictures. Even though the weather wasn’t ideal, Trev powered through without one complaint and that meant the world to us. I’m pretty sure he had fun - it’s cool to have a photographer who clearly loves his job and makes people happy. The turnaround time was barely a week or two so that was great to be able to see our photos so quickly. The $3.5k might seem steep, but I assure you that it was worth every penny. We definitely recommend RiLee Photography to anyone looking for amazing photos and a fun, reliable photographer.
