Every event is unique. New friendships, connections, celebrations, and each event deserves to be documented with care and consideration. Rio Foto is fully prepared to capture, the story of each one, so you can relive it again and again.

Weddings and Quinceañeras
Your wedding or quinceañera deserves more than coverage, it deserves authorship. I start with a calm, thoughtful consultation to learn your story, design a timeline that protects your moments (and sanity), and plan the look: elegant direction for portraits, clean editorial lighting, and documentary candids that feel alive for decades. On wedding days, I’m present from details and getting-ready through ceremony, portraits, and reception, anticipating emotion, protecting time for family formals, and keeping you beautifully lit in any venue. For quinceañeras, I honor tradition and style in equal measure, misa, court portraits, the father–daughter waltz, la corona y el zapato, sorpresa, and the dance floor energy, while guiding poses so families look their best and every guest feels included. Discreet coordination with planners, and professional backup systems keep everything seamless. Within 72 hours you’ll receive favorite previews; the full gallery follows in 3–4 weeks, with museum-grade prints and heirloom albums designed for your home. Based in Williamsburg, VA and available for travel, I provide a white-glove experience from first call to final delivery, so you can be fully present while I craft the images your family will treasure.
Corporate and Charity Events.
From board meetings and conferences to black-tie galas and charity fundraisers, Rio Foto captures the energy, elegance, and purpose of your event with refined, on-brand imagery that serves marketing, PR, and donor stewardship long after the last guest leaves. We work seamlessly with planners, AV teams, and development or communications staff to anticipate the run of show, map the key moments, and design lighting that flatters speakers, VIPs, and sponsors while preserving the ambiance you worked so hard to create. Our coverage blends documentary candor and fine-art polish: podium and award moments, step-and-repeat portraits, sponsor activations, room design and details, genuine interactions, and the quiet stories that reveal impact. Expect a calm, discreet presence; clear licensing tailored to internal comms, press, and paid campaigns. For momentum while the buzz is highest, we can supply day-of or next-day highlight selects and press-ready files, with a full curated gallery delivered promptly and organized for easy sharing across web, print, and social. If you need cohesive assets beyond stills, we partner with Vü Media to integrate and create short-form video and reels, ensuring consistent color, tone, and messaging across channels. The result is sophisticated, conversion-ready media that honors the mission, delights stakeholders, and elevates your brand with every frame.
