    Very Happy with the Experience and ALL of the Photos!!

    From the first phone call, working with Rebekah was such a pleasant experience. We were also so excited that Studio Rivy does both photos and video. We did our engagement photos at the end of last summer, and Rebekah was so patient and kind directing us. We loved the engagement photos, and put many of them on our wedding website, and one photo on our save the date. Planning for the wedding was pretty straight-forward, we stayed in touch about the schedule. I made sure to send clear schedules and information to my vendors, and it really made me happy that Studio Rivy was in fact referring to the print-outs the day of! Rebekah and Asher were our photographers for our wedding day, and Rainer was our videographer; what a wonderful and stealth team!! We didn’t even notice many of the photos being taken!! I keep looking through the photos and can’t stop smiling! They are very skilled photographers; our family and friends have been commenting how good the photos are too. I love the way that Studio Rivy makes the light “glow” in the photos. Even on our day, which was direct and bright sun, the lighting in all the photos is just perfect (and I understand the direct and bright sun is not ideal for photos). There are so many good emotions on your wedding day, and so much sentiment. It meant so much that our photo team was calm and kind. If you are considering working with Rebekah and Studio Rivy, I highly recommend reaching out to this professional and talented team!!

    Amazing Photographer! True Artist who captured out Special Day!

    StudioRivy / Rebekah was excellent! Can't recommend enough!

    Leading up to the big day, she was always available to listen to our ideas, talk through our schedule, and prepared herself to capture everything that happened that day! She's a pro! She captured amazing photos at our wedding, and had a great eye to suggest shots/backgrounds! She went above and beyond photographing our special day, and all her pictures turned out incredible. [Also, she worked hard to process the photos so I could share them with everyone quickly!] Can't recommend enough!

    Perfect photographer!!!

    Rebekah was a breeezeeee to work with! We found her here on WeddingWire, looked through her Instagram account and loved the style of photos she took. We booked her after just talking to her once on the phone.
    She was accommodating to our wants list, and responsive to all emails and texts. She even made my dress photo come true! Her assistance made my husband comfortable in front of the camera. Our guests love our wedding photos

    Exactly What We Hoped For

    My fiancé and I recently got engaged and took our Engagement photos with Rebekah in October 2019. She picked the perfect location that gave us numerous options for backgrounds. We were pretty nervous going into it, fearful that we were going to look as awkward as we felt. Rebekah started off with some great pointers about how to loosen up and get comfortable and wanted us to just be ourselves and get goofy. She perfectly captured the essence of who we are in just one short hour and we could not be happier with her photos! Would absolutely recommend her services!

    Absolutely fantastic

    We shopped around for so, so long before we found Studio Rivy and she was the only one we wanted. Rebekah was absolutely wonderful. We changed the location of our wedding to much farther away and she still made it out for us for a little travel fee. She was committed, caring, invested, and I am so grateful that we have her photos to document the best day for the rest of our lives. Wonderful person, wonderful photographer.

    Highly recommend!

    Rebekah is a true artist, professional and business woman. She was responsive and proactive and wonderfully easy to work with. The pictures she chose to shoot captured the beauty, significance and joy of the moment and she was not at all intrusive as some photographers might be. Her creativity and artistic talent are evident in the photos I just received, less than a week after the event. Rebekah is pure joy!

    Can't say enough good things about Studio Rivy!

    Rebekah is amazing! She captured our special day beautifully. She is professional, organized, easy to work with and a lot of fun. She managed to take lovely photos of the children at our vow renewal, even though they weren't always cooperative! She had a smile and a positive attitude through it all and we are so thankful to have had her with us on our special day. She had our gallery finished in under two weeks and it is full of beautiful photos and I can't imagine having to choose a favorite! If you are looking for a top notch photographer for your wedding, special event, or any other occasion, Rebekah will not disappoint! We highly recommend Studio Rivy!

    We loved working with Rebekah from Studio Rivy. She made us feel so comfortable as soon as we met her which made our engagement shoot that much easier. For our wedding, Rebekah made sure to capture pictures with our friends and family all night and we received our photos quickly after the wedding. She was on top of everything and helped our day run smoothly. I highly recommend!

    I found Rebekah Vesey of Studio Rivy through the videographer that I hired (Alyson Films), and I'm so glad I did. Rebekah is not only very talented, but also warm and friendly and so easy to talk to. She took some incredible shots of us at Harkness State Park for our engagement shoot, which we received super fast! Even though I was not feeling all that confident being photographed, Rebekah really made me feel photogenic and beautiful.

    On our wedding day, Rebekah and her assistant Tina were simply delightful to be around. They were our best friends all day yet simultaneously professional and efficient. Our formal photo plans had to change a bit--we got rained out of the regular spot at our venue (Tunxis Country Club), but Rebekah and Tina were able to quickly and seamlessly pivoted to another location. They worked effortlessly with our families and other vendors. At the end of the night, they truly felt like family. By Monday, we already had some raw images from Rebekah! It was an incredible experience working with Studio Rivy, and we're so excited to see the final photos!

    Rebekah’s photos are AMAZING! She is an incredibly talented photographer whose keen artistic eye, kind heart and empathetic soul enhance her photography to find the most true, beautiful moments and aspects of those she is capturing, and brings them forth to shine in her photos. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease while working with her, none of our wedding photos felt posed or fake. She captured the true love and joyous elation that was bursting on, not only our faces, but on the faces of all our beloved friends and family on our big day. Because of Rebekah we can relive our special day as if we were there again with all the laughs and happy tears, and it is for this we are forever grateful to her! She is the best!

    Rebekah was great to work with! She was very open to what we wanted to do but also gave us suggestions when we weren't sure. She was really flexible with when we would take our pictures so we wouldn't miss anything! And she was super nice and easy to work with. It was comforting having her as our photographer and her turn around was really fast! Highly recommend!

    If I could give Rebekah 100 stars I would! She has been nothing but a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Her photos speak for themselves, but take it from me, she is an artist and has such talent. She has all the qualities you would want from a photographer: professional, kind, talented, understanding and most importantly, communication. I couldn’t rave any more about her!

    One piece of advice my matron of honor gave me that I followed was "Make sure you hire a wedding photographer that you think you will enjoy spending the day with!" Rebekah was that and more. I had spent two months looking for a photographer because I had a certain style in mind, as different photographers can have very specific styles. When I found her on wedding wire, there was this one photo that left me speechless. I then saw the rest of her portfolio and thought her work was amazing! After our first phone conversation, I knew that she had extensive knowledge in photography and a creative eye.

    Working with her this past weekend and her assistant Luigi was an absolute pleasure. She/they were extremely professional, and worked so well with the wedding coordinator, band, etc. She was there for me the entire day, accommodating my requests, and coming up with photo ideas I never would have thought of (she is a true artist). One of the stand out qualities about her aside from her work, is that she truly is passionate about what she does and cares about her clients (which sometimes can be hard to find). I would recommend her to everyone, and cannot wait to work with her again for future occasions!

    Rebekah is amazing!!!! She did our engagement and wedding photos. She did such an incredible job I can't believe how beautiful the pictures came out. She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed that we were able to be ourselves. I was very nervous because I am not photogenic at all but 5 minutes into it I forgot we were even taking pictures and everything just felt so natural. Rebekah is such a nice and genuine person and just a pleasure to work with. I have already recommended her to all my friends who are engaged. Thank you again Rebekah!!!!

    Rebekah is an INCREDIBLE photographer. She is an artist. Her work tells a story. My husband and I are so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. She was thorough and professional. Her kind genuine spirit put us at ease- as a result the photos she took on our wedding day are natural, beautiful, and reflect our love. Rebekah is energetic and passionate about her work. I remember seeing her run ahead on the beach, crouching down and doing what she needed to capture moments as we walked together with our families for the first time. We cherish these photos. In the editing and delivery process we had constant communication and were overjoyed with the end result. I would recommend her to any of my dearest friends knowing that they would have a great experience. You can count on Rebekah to see and capture those special and unforgettable moments.

    The highlight to our special day was running around on the beach and in the park searching for the perfect shots as the sun was falling to give us the perfect lighting.
    Very professional and beautiful photos, Rebekah captures great moments and makes it easy to be yourself!

    My husband Ryan Trainor and I booked Rebekah Vesey for our wedding in Narragansett, RI a couple weeks ago. She was the most amazing photographer to work with. I just loved her energy, ideas, and most of all creativity. Ryan and I were looking for someone who was non-traditional and we definitely found that with Rebekah and Vern. She went above and beyond to make our day amazing, even if that meant stopping traffic to get the shot lol. If anyone is looking for an amazing photographer you've found her. I cant wait to have more family events for her to shot. Love you girl. You're the BEST!!!!!!!!

    Rebekah really knows how to make you feel beautiful. She puts time, work and sincerity into editing all of her photographs. I can't even begin to tell you all of the compliments I've received on my photoshoot. Not to mention, I had so much fun throughout the whole session! Rebekah, I cannot thank you enough for the memories you have provided for me, and the timeless pictures you have created!

    Rebekah did an absolutely amazing job photographing our family “beach” pictures in June! I had seen her work through friends and knew instantly she was our gal! Her energy was awesome and she was so professional and kind with our boys. From the very beginning, she answered all of my questions (there were a lot!) and was so patient with us. She was always super responsive to emails. I really cannot thank Rebekah enough for everything and for capturing the love and joy of our blended family! All the photos are incredible and our friends & family keep saying how the photos are beautiful and fun!

    My husband and I feel SO blessed to have had Rebekah as our wedding photographer. Neither of us are photogenic but she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we absolutely love the way our pictures turned out! She truly made us feel like rockstars! We will cherish these gorgeous photos and the memories they hold for the rest of our lives. Rebekah is truly so talented and puts her heart into her work. Several friends have commented to me that her pictures are the best wedding photos they have ever seen. Getting her as our photographer was definitely our best wedding investment!

    Life just looks better through Rebekah's lens. From vivid colors to black and white, she knows how to find the truth in any given moment and package it so it stays true forever. I, for one, am grateful to have photos of myself and my family that we'll be able to look back on when other memories fade. Even now, when every day is so fast paced and full, it's nice to be able to step back and see through Rebekah's eyes what we may have missed on our own. The days may be a blur, but she stays focused.

    We have used Rebekah to photograph a variety of family events over the past three years. She does a wonderful job, and the photos are great. I would highly recommend her.

    Rebekah was fantastic to work with. My fiancé and I did an engagement shoot with her and felt so comfortable and received the most gorgeous photos (and quick too!). She was so fun to interact with and very creative. Always very responsive too which is difficult to find sometimes in the wedding industry. Would recommend her to others and hopefully will use her for another event in the future !

    Rebekah has an eye for those special shots and knows how to make you feel comfortable an natural. Could not have been happier with how my wedding photos came out and the beautiful softness she brings to those intimate moments.

    Rebekah did a great job for our wedding. We are super happy with our photos that documented the most important day of our lives. She made us feel natural throughout and her photos brought out the best. Highly recommend. Mark

    We asked Rebekah with Rivy studio to do a photo shoot after seeing some of her beautiful photos. We couldn't have been more pleased with the session or the pictures. Rebekah captured our children and their personalities so perfectly and she really has an eye for important details. We'd recommend Rivy Studio to anyone looking to capture special memories.
