Testimonials:

"She has a way about her to make you feel like you’re just hanging out with an old friend. A safe place. All while making magic behind the camera. She captured a late summer evening with myself and my twin girls who can be just about impossible to keep still. I was blown away by the beautifully edited gallery of time spent with them. Hire her, you won’t be disappointed"

-Ramsey Baker

"Riley went above and beyond what me and my husband would have imagined. She was so intentional, generous and thoughtful and made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. Her effort and energy put into every shot made this day and this shoot so special and unforgettable. Every time I look at these images I am reminded of how truly beautiful and special she made the both of us feel on this day. Riley is truly one of a kind honest and beautiful talent and I would book her for any occasion you get the opportunity too. Lots of Love"

-Rose White

"Hiring Riley at Traces as our wedding photographer was the best decision we could have possibly made. She is highly organized & responsive and delivered so many photos that were beyond our wildest expectations. She is a true artist and delivered just that - art that we will treasure forever. We had an intimate wedding and Riley seamlessly blended into the day - putting us at ease right away. Most importantly she is so kind, so talented, so adaptable, and just a gem of a person that anyone would be lucky to work with. We're forever grateful."
