I looked forward to this wedding like a kid looks forward to a slumber party. Like a family of five looks forward to having all of it’s members in one place for the weekend. I was so excited about this wedding, not because it was my first solo-wedding (although that was really cool :-), but […]
Jesie and I walked swiftly through the Pheonix airport to our gate. Each pulling behind us our matching LowePro camera bag.

To be the one who says, “This moment stays,” is one of the greatest honors of my life. I’m René, and I create images that are romantic, timeless, enduring, and authentic.

I’m deeply passionate about honoring both the legacy you’re building and the one you’re already part of, and my hope is that the images we create together are cherished for generations to come.
