Rita was the photographer at our wedding and helped up capture our special day. She was incredibly professional and good at making us and our guests feel comfortable in front of a camera, and took excellent candid photos without us realizing. We cannot thank you enough for the incredible memories!

We recently visited Portugal with friends from Oregon, and my fiancée, Morgan, and I decided it was the perfect opportunity to finally have our engagement photos taken. Enter Rita, who was absolutely incredible! I’ve never been one to enjoy taking photos but Rita made the entire experience so much fun and put all my anxieties to rest. She chose two stunning locations for our shoot that perfectly captured the magic of Portugal, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Rita was amazing! She was very helpful in planning how things should go in regards to photography for my proposal and she genuinely cared about the proposal going well and cared about the pictures being as perfect as we could make them. Rita was also very informative, responsive and generally very nice and I always had a great conversation with her any time we talked to each other. The pictures came out amazing and me, my fiancée and my family couldn't be happier! Thank you so much Rita!
