The first time I met Ariel Renae, I was instantly put at ease with her laid back demeanor and relaxed attitude.  Ariel is easy to talk to and super fun. She describes her shooting style as having a west coast based influence and you will often hear her referring to things she likes as “rad.”  I love this. People just don’t say rad enough anymore. From the first time I glimpsed her website, I was smitten with both the gorgeous photos and the site itself  – the clean lines and gray tones with pops of neon are a testament to her distinct style.

I am a details person through and through — I love the way the many little elements and personal touches all come together to create a day that is truly characteristic of each couple’s personality and style. Ariel Renae’s eye for detail enables her to capture all those special moments and aspects that tell the story of a couple’s journey together up to this day.

In addition to her wedding day packages, Ariel Renae loves doing both engagement sessions and after sessions for the extra time they allow to play around with different ideas and get some genuinely unique photos. And have a bunch of fun.

Ariel Renae’s talents do not stop at photography. She can also provide videography, both for your wedding day as well as engagement videos. Videography can help get a more complete view of all of the events of the day and Ariel Renae encourages brides to consider it alongside still photography. She feels that many brides do not realize how important videography is to fully capture the day until it is too late.  She has a unique motion picture-type take on videography and will provide couples with both a trailer and movie-length video of their day. Check out some of her videos on her website here.

We were pumped to get to work with Ariel Renae a few weeks ago and can’t wait to see what types of rad shots she captured of the day. Here are a few more lovelies to brighten your afternoon.
