Meet Ray — NYC Wedding & Portrait Photographer

Photographer & Videographer

The present moment is the prize, and my work exists to preserve it. Through photography and film, I capture moments as they unfold so they can be felt, remembered, and relived long after they pass.

My approach

 

Presence, patience, and intention guide everything I create. I move through each moment with awareness — observing, anticipating, and allowing the story to unfold naturally rather than forcing it. My work lives at the intersection of modern digital storytelling, thoughtful aerial perspective, and the more deliberate, intimate nature of film — coming together to preserve moments in a way that feels honest, timeless, and true to how they were experienced.

Working with Alamedia was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the moment they arrived, they brought a sense of ease, warmth, and professionalism that immediately put us at peace. What began as a vendor relationship quickly felt like family — people who genuinely cared about us and our day. Their passion, attentiveness, and ability to capture our story through both photo and video exceeded every expectation. We are beyond grateful and would not hesitate to work with them again.

We truly can’t thank Ray and Alamedia enough for what they created for us. From the moment we received our photos, we were completely overwhelmed — in the best way. Every image was beautiful, emotional, and beyond anything we could have imagined. Seeing our memories captured so perfectly brought us to tears, and the reactions from our friends and family have been just as powerful. Ray has an incredible ability to not only document moments, but to preserve the feeling behind them. We will cherish these photos forever and are endlessly grateful to have trusted Alamedia with such meaningful memories.
