Travel

E-sesh on a yacht?  Yes, please! We love Whitney & Shawn’s choice for a lakeside engagement session. They selected Lake Norman in North Carolina. The picturesque location is romantic and peaceful. It was a relaxed session with all the right nautical touches. And isn’t Whitney’s black tulle + beaded dress to die for?!

Weddings

Natalia + Mark’s Boca Grande wedding was held at the Gasparilla Inn. If you follow our work, you know we love this wedding venue!  They have beautiful grounds and a resort “feel”, while still being perfectly intimate. The couple held their ceremony on the beach.

Christina & Chad’s gorgeous engagement session was at The Ringling Museum in Sarasota.  It is a seriously stunning venue that happens to also host weddings.

Ritz Carlton Sarasota Wedding, Trish & Mike | Destination Wedding Photographer

Weddings

Trish & Mike’s courtship started as college friends in Vermont. Over the course of a few semesters, a bit of ‘waiting it out’, and a little liquid courage on Trish’s part, it finally blossomed into a romance.  Their big day was five years in the making and we’d say it was worth the wait! The […]

“Wow, wow, wow!! I don’t know how you do it, but you all capture a magic with every photo. It’s exactly how I remember it, which the iPhone photos that we have access to don’t grasp in the same way.

On top of it all, you all have been so easy to work with. We’ve been to lots of weddings in our time, and the photographer sets the tone. Cody was so fun to have around - we got lots of compliments - and made it so easy for us to open up in front of too. It’s unreal that you lasted the whole weekend with us! Tiff, your phone calls and care to making sure we had everything planned ahead of time was pretty special too. Your wedding is a life milestone that goes by so fast, and the memories are all captured thanks to you all. “

Courtney & Stephen

There are no possible words for the love and admiration we have for Tiff and Cody at Hunter Ryan! Not only do they manage to somehow capture the moments of pure joy in a way you didn't even think possible but also are all around the best people and exactly who you would want with you on your wedding day. Cody makes you feel so comfortable and both his and Tiff's positive energy is infectious.

There is no greater gift than the ability to relive our wedding (and engagement!) through the beautiful pictures they took and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple!! We can't wait for the day when we get to do a legacy session with them! We consider them not only a top vendor but also great friends!

Christina & Ryan

“Oh my gosh, I have no words. The photos are so incredible. The raw talent you guys have is unparalleled. Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Completely blown away. Such happy, beautiful captured moments.

Beyond your obvious talent, your creativity, fun, loving personalities made the weekend that much more incredible. We are so appreciative that you came out to Thursday, Friday and Saturday's events.”

Rachael & Micah

“We are pretty much speechless...we can't even begin to thank you enough for completely capturing EVERY SINGLE emotion, moment, detail and memory of our wedding day. Nate and I were able to see the moments that we missed, we cried and cried from so much happiness because we got to truly relive the day for everything that it was... absolute perfection!!!

We are just so thankful for you both, and so beyond grateful we were able to have you both apart of our special day! Your work is truly remarkable and flawless. Every angle, every candid moment, every single thing is just breathtaking because of your creativity, talent and eye for capturing photos. We will tell everyone we can possibly tell they need to have Hunter Ryan Photo at their wedding!! NO MATTER WHAT! Hands down best investment we could've made and I will say that over and over again.“
