couples
shared laughter, quiet moments, stolen glances: sharing stories for hopeless romantics.
Raise your hand if you've found the love of your life
My approach to couples photography is simple – it doesn't matter where you are in your relationship; what does matter is truly understanding the connection you have.
I’m here to make sure that you get incredible shots without compromising personality or quality. I use a documentary style with a cinematic touch, capturing both you and your environment. I've worked with couples across the country and around the globe, from Big Sur to Spain to Switzerland.
Whether it's an engagement shoot or a celebration of an anniversary, the important part is celebrating those intimate moments that reflect your romance as a whole – the way you look at each other, how your fingers brush, and how you smile just a bit wider when they do. My cinematic approach with film-inspired tones help share your story like a romantic film – where you'll always be the directors.
As a photographer, to me, all it really comes down to is understanding connection with intention. And I can't wait to capture yours.

countdown
The big day has arrived. Whether we're together for an hour or half a day, I'll make sure we grab those romantic, candid, and cinematic shots that you're looking for. I'll check in throughout our time together to make sure you're feeling comfortable and having a good time!
So we vibe really well – that's great! Sign the contract, put down your retainer fee, and we'll stay in touch before the shoot. Whether you make a Pinterest board of inspiration photos, or you have any questions about what to expect during the shoot itself, I'll be there.
You'll receive some fully edited sneak peeks within 48 hours, and the final gallery 6-8 weeks after we work together. From there, get your favorites out into the world. Hang them up on your walls, show them to everyone, and make sure to tag @riyakphoto when you post them!
After you reach out over email, let's hop on a video call! We'll get to know each other, understand what vibe you're going for, and make sure that I can fit what you're looking for. We'll also chat more about logistics and details, and overall make sure that you feel comfortable working with me!
