Since we were eloping we wanted to hire someone freaking awesome to document our day and Ryan fit that bill. His photos are amazing and he has such a keen eye at capturing the special moments – no cheesy poses here. His photos are real and truly special. He keeps you laughing which helps when you’re nervous and overwhelmed on your wedding day. Ryan is excellent at his craft and we are beyond ecstatic with our photos. Thank you Ryan!
We loved working with Ryan! We reached out to him at the last minute and were lucky enough that he had time available to be our Temecula wedding photographer. Ryan is so fun to work with and and had us laughing the entire time. We LOVE all of the shots he got of us and family and friends. Aside from all the fun stuff he is also extremely professional, punctual and the turn around time for our photos was super quick. He even sent us some photos to show family the night of our event (we had a morning ceremony) and we couldn’t wait to see the rest. Book Ryan!
Ryan is basically a magician!!! Our photos came out not only beautiful but also full of life and joy. Going through all the photos made me teary-eyed, laugh, and immediately wonder if it’d be weird to use our wedding photos as bedroom wallpaper (my s/o convinced me this was a no-go, haha!).
Ryan is not only obviously an incredible photographer, but he’s ridiculously fun to work with. Hours before our ceremony, we needed to change venues which I worried would ruin the day. Despite the haze of anxiety and panic, Ryan had us all laughing and feeling present and excited! He’s fun and knows exactly what he’s doing, which made everyone feel at ease. I’m notoriously awkward in photos, but with Ryan, I just felt comfortable and ridiculously stoked!
Okay, one last thing about why you definitely need to book Ryan is he’s extremely fast! We weren’t expecting our photos until at least a month after the ceremony, but somehow two nights later I got a very happy surprise that they were done (like I said, he’s a magician)!
I feel so grateful that we had such an amazing photographer capture our special day and will forever use Ryan for any other special events!
OH MY GOD. STOP READING THESE REVIEWS. Your search is over and just book Ryan already!
I was initially drawn to his style because he can capture “in the moment” shots. The small looks and giggles between the staged shots. He was able to capture all of that. One of my favorite things about my photos was that he was able to capture my guests’ genuine reactions during the wedding. He truly can rock the momemt. So talented!
He knows how to pose people in small, medium, and large groups. He’ll remind guests if they need to button any jackets to get that great shot. He knows how to incorporate the background so he isn’t just taking pictures of people but really the entire environment. There is great balance in the photos.
He was extremely flexible the day of. We had minor schedule changes and he just went with the flow.
I am SOOOO grateful he was able to photograph our big day. THANK YOU RYAN!!
Planning a wedding might be one of the hardest things you’ll ever do, but working with Ryan and his team was one of the easiest decisions that we made during the process. Not only was he friendly, professional, and communicative, but his work is nothing short of art. Our wedding was filled with laughs and tears and songs and Ryan perfectly captured every single moment–My wife and I look at our photos every other week just so we can remember the greatest party of our lives! If I ever get married again, I’ll call Ryan, but until then he’s my number one recommendation for anyone that is getting engaged / married / having a baby / or just wants to capture a moment in a way that will always make you smile.
Ryan. Motha. F***ing. Horban! Beautiful unique photos? check.
Make you pee your pants? check. He is that funny. Grab a beer or two with you? check.
Drive you and your wedding party home from your wedding because you are too drunk? double check.
This guy, who is now our friend, offers nothing short of genuine magic. I mean, just look at his photos! But its not all about the photos, is it? Ryan grabs the wedding day by the balls and knows what the hell he is doing. On your wedding day, you are so consumed with time, your venue, your vendors, omg is it fucking raining?! type of situations and Ryan just shows up and gets right to work. Capturing moments you have no idea are going on. He basically is a Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon type of photographer… although, he doesn’t bring his samurai sword with him and that’s about all the disappointment to be had working with this warlock.
Once I found him and we exchanged one email, I stopped looking. I KNEW he was the best fit and clearly I was right. The entire wedding party loved him, too. What a guy
