My husband and I booked River to do a maternity session. This was both of our first photo session we'd ever done and were super nervous. But, River made it so effortless and easy! We are in LOVE with our photos and we made the right choice as first timers!! He does such an amazing job!!!!

We did our maternity photoshoot with River and couldn't be more happy with the process. River is wonderful to work with and the photos came out phenomenal! I personally couldn't pick just one favorite. Will definitely work with him in the future.

We had a great session with River! Due to weather it was cut a little short but the pictures turned out fantastic & we plan to shoot again in the fall! River was professional and very accommodating especially shooting with 4 kids in cold weather! His communication was effortless and felt like I was messaging with a friend, he kept me updated with the timeline for editing and got the pictures to us within a week! Super fast turnaround even during his busy prom season. We are excited for our beautiful photos and can’t wait to take more pictures again in the fall! If you’re visiting Blue Ridge or live locally I highly recommend him for all your photography needs!
Kristen H.

River shot my wedding photos and I am so, so thankful that I was able to book with him! His photos turned out amazing. He’s very professional, kind, patient/understanding, and attentive to detail. He provides high quality photos at an affordable price, and gets them back to you quickly. I would highly recommend him for any and all of your photography needs! Attached are some of my favorite photos. If I could attach them all, I would because I love them that much!!
