making joyful and badass photos for creatives and the sentimental
photos should make you feel.
welcome
hello friend.
I'm glad you're here.
I'm River (she/her) and I am passionate about providing outstanding photojournalism-inspired portraiture to Atlanta and beyond.
As an artist, I'm into sentiment, poignancy, adventure, laughter, honesty, and playing with light. I love and search for the unexpected. Even the mundane has a certain sort of surprising beauty to it. My work seeks foremost to honor the people in front of my camera. Nothing matters more to me than creating something epic and perfectly "you."
I love the places and moments photography takes me to. I view all my work as a collaboration between myself and the individuals who step in front of my camera. Shall we make some magic together?

"River has a real knack for bringing people’s authentic selves to the surface for photos. I am never comfortable in front of a camera but I felt totally at ease and had a great time."

"An amazing photog with style and client feedback skills. Never forceful but not a pushover either. It was a long day and she kept a smile the whole time. by the end, it was almost like we all knew her for years."
