Sandy Sent on 02/10/2026Love Jones Beach Wedding Captured Beautifully by RTW Team
Although their name says photography, RTW Photography did an excellent job providing videography services for our Love Jones beach wedding. They were professional, reliable, and captured every important moment and detail throughout the day, including getting ready, the ceremony, reception, and even drone shots of the beach. Their presence was seamless and reassuring, and we’re looking forward to seeing the final video. I would highly recommend RTW Photography for their professionalism and videography services. -

Book - You Won't Regret It
My (newly) husband and I have been longtime customers of RTW Photography since college graduations so it only made sense to hire their services for one of the biggest days of our life, our wedding. From start to finish, RTW Photography is great when it comes to communicating expectations for their services and signing contracts was a breeze.
We met our lead photographer, Kai, during our engagement photoshoot, which was included in the price of the wedding photography package that we chose. Kai is truly an amazing person, both in personality and photography, and he made us feel comfortable getting in front of the camera.
To our pleasant surprise, Kai would also be our lead photographer for our big day a few months later. His professionalism and work ethic shined through just as when we met him for the engagement photoshoot. His second shooter, Ari, was a great team addition, as well. She, not only was creative with her ideas on poses, but was also a great person to encourage and cheer us on, constantly making us smile with her commentary. The videography team was also the best, though I can not recall their names for this review.
The best part of hiring RTW Photography for your services is that they feel like family by the end of the night. I loved that they, both individually and as a group, felt like they fit right in to our day. I owe these amazing pictures to them because I truly feel that, without their guidance and direction, we would not have had such a great outcome. Book them for your next event; you will not regret it! -

They create magic!
They are the best- hands down! I knew from day 1 that I wanted them to be a part of our wedding team. They are so professional, knowledgeable and personable. It was truly like being around people you’ve known for years. We selected photography and videography originally, however, due to covid we had to decrease our number of guests but wanted a way to still have them attend. RTW provided their streaming services and the clarity was amazing! We received our own YouTube link and I can’t even tell you how many compliments we received or the amount or times I have went to YouTube to watch it again. When we received our photos ... they were truly breathtaking! I am still in awe!
RTW will be our photographer/videographer for ANY event or photoshoot we need in the future! -

Julie Sent on 09/15/2020Live-streaming despite a rain delay
My husband and I booked RTW to live-stream our wedding when we made the (tough) decision to downsize and have a much smaller wedding than initially planned -- instead of 150 attendees, we only had 10. We still wanted our family and friends to be able to "attend" so we booked RTW's live-streaming package and they did an incredible job of ensuring everyone was able to see and hear us share our vows. On the day of the wedding, a tropical storm decided to make an appearance, throwing a wrinkle into the day. We made the decision to try and hold the wedding outside but that failed in spectacular fashion. RTW, however, did an *amazing* job of setting their gear up, breaking it down when the rain stopped, setting it up again when we thought the rain cleared, breaking it down a second time, and then moving everything to our rain site (nearly two miles away). They kept their cool, set up at our rain site set up in record time, and made sure that our "guests" were able to be there with us. We received countless emails from thankful family and friends who were over the moon about being able to watch the ceremony in real time. Booking RTW was a no-brainer and a decision we wouldn't hesitate to do again if we had to re-do anything! -

Derrious is truly one-of-a-kind. He took pictures twice during my graduate degree - once when I first got accepted and then again after I graduated. I knew without a doubt I would be using him for future life events. At my maternity shoot recently, he was patient, understanding, and so kind. You won't be disappointed with RTW! -

Amy Sent on 01/11/2020They’re the BEST! Stop looking! Hire them!
If you don't have time to read this whole review, just remember this... if you are getting married, hire RTW Photography. Periodt! They are the best!
One of the best pieces of advice I would give any future bride is to 1) fall in love with your dress like you did with your fiancé and 2) SPEND THE MONEY on a quality photographer AND make sure you vibe with them! Ride the Wave Photography is worth EVERY single penny. They are professional, ridiculously talented, patient and emit good energy. Being that you spend so much time with your photography/videography crew, you want them to be people that you WANT in your space. The RTW crew fit in perfectly with our bridal party. They made us feel comfortable in front of the lense and got some amazing shots that my husband and I will cherish forever. Again, SPEND THE MONEY-- get photography AND videography AND the wedding book, these will be keepsakes that you will have for the rest of your life. Also, trust their vision-- they have a keen eye and truly make magic happen. I am still in awe of what they were able to capture from our special day and even more in awe of how they were able to take the best parts to create an amazing wedding trailer. RTW is the BEST and you want the best for your wedding day so, stop looking at other photography companies and HIRE THEM! I promise, you won't for a second regret it -

Engagement & wedding photo session
Out of all the wedding vendors, RTW Photography was the best. Their professionalism, courtesy and incomparable humor gave us that piece of mind from the engagement photoshoot to the wedding day. Their attention to detail, ideas and comments had us feeling confident infront of the camera! I would definitely recommend RTW photography for any photoshoot. -

Professional and fun
RTW Photography shot our wedding. They were very professional and so fun to work with. They provided clear instructions and directed some great shots. They were on point with taking photos of our guests and every key moment of our wedding. We look forward to working with them in the future. I would definitely refer them to anyone looking for a professional team. -

Dominique Sent on 09/28/2019A wave worth riding!
We felt as though our longtime friends were taking our photos! We hired RTW for our engagement photos after being impressed with their professionalism and the quality of their work from our friend's June wedding. The booking process was a breeze, they communicated efficiently and honored their word in every way. Throughout the photo session, we were shown pictures to make sure our visions aligned and they posed and positioned us (THANK YOU!) as needed. We scheduled our consultation immediately following the session and again we were impressed with their professionalism and communication. We are looking forward to seeing our photos from today and riding the wave for future events! If you are looking for a professional team to capture your important moments, look no more. -

Dominique Sent on 09/04/2019Nelson Wedding
We had a phenomenal experience with the gentlemen of RTW Photography on our wedding day. We feel they captured our day perfectly from the big details down the the minor details. Planning and executing a wedding can be stressful, yet, the entire process with the team was 100% stress and pain free (thank you for this!). We feel as if the guys really paid attention to our vision of how we wanted our day to look and everyone was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly throughout the process and on our actual wedding day. Thank you for allowing us to relive our best day ever and for really capturing the essence of what being OnCloudNelson was all about! -

Nicole Sent on 08/07/2019Absolutely Amazing
RTW photography was nothing short of amazing on our big day. Not only did they make sure they consulted with me as to what mattered to me, but the lengths that they went to make sure the day ran smooth was absolutely jaw dropping. We received videography and Photobooth services and loved how accommodating they were and how happy our guests were with the services. Not to mention my video came out beautiful. I highly recommend! -

Wonderful!!!
My fiancé and I booked RTW for our engagement shoot. We personally had never taken photos with a professional photographer and had a few requests. For starters we needed a creative mind to help bring our vision to life. We also needed a photographer that would make us feel confident and comfortable. Lastly, it was important for us to have a company that was flexible, considering we had three outfit changes.
RTW photography truly exceeded our expectations! We are over the moon excited about how our engagement photos turned out that we even booked RTW for our wedding in July! We cannot wait for them to capture our special day.
If you are looking for a photographer for your special event, go ahead and stop looking. These are your guys! Book RTW Photography today!! -

Derrious and the RTW team exceeded every expectation I had going into this wedding planning process. From our engagement pictures to the wedding, he was organized, professional, thorough, and made sure to capture all the moments my husband and I requested and then some. We couldn’t have asked for a better team for our wedding. I screamed, laughed, and cried all over again going through all the pictures and videos. AMAZING. -

Thandiwe Sent on 10/29/2018Wonderful people and wonderful work!
My fiance and I's experience with RTW was great! Their team flew all the way to Atlanta for our engagement photography shoot. They were very professional and always 10 steps ahead regarding planning of picture locations and posing positions (which for an awkward person like me was SUPER helpful). The Ride The Wave team answered all of our questions in a very timely manner. I definitely recommend RTW, and I wouldn't have wanted any other group shooting our engagement photos. Great editing and overall great work! We are beyond pleased. -

Reggie Sent on 10/06/2018RTW is definitely a company that I would vouch for! We recently had a photoshoot done & Derrious (& his team) did an incredible job of making my fiancée & I feel comfortable. From the start he was incredibly proffesional and accommodating. He made us his priority during our session and I would recommend him to anybody! RTW was an incredible experience and our pictures came out amazing! We were even surprised at how quickly he got our pictures back to us. They went above and beyond what we were expecting and we're are excited for further work with them. 5/5, absolutely.
