hello! my name is rio,
and contrary to popular belief, i’ve never actually danced on the sand.
i am a twenty-eight year old photographer, originally from the californian bohemian enclave known as topanga canyon, where i spent my first few years of life on earth before swiftly relocating to a sunny seaside town in essex, england. i recently moved to the heart of london, living just a five minute stroll from the famous platform nine and three quarters, or as some of you may know it, kings cross station.
i started photographing weddings back in 2015 and over the last four years have been lucky enough to shoot 240+ beautiful couples in all sorts of magnificent corners of the world. i love love. awkward love, romantic love, clumsy love, laid-back love, and now, i want to tell your story.
some more things i love!
+ bedroom dance parties
+ bike rides through the city
+ orange is the new black
+ day trips to brighton
+ singing loudly (and badly!) in my car
+ scouting out the best vegan hotspots in town
+ browsing joshua tree ranches on airbnb
+ summer strolls with my film camera
+ card game nights with friends
+ baking (+ eating!) banana bread
+ DMC’s (deep and meaningful conversations)
if you think i might be your gal, pop me a message and let’s get this show on the road, shall we?
