My name is Rikki Young and I'm a Graduation, Lifestyle, and Wedding photographer in Riverside, CA. A few years ago after taking graduation photos for a friend, I realized that I wanted to make photography more than a hobby. Since then I've shot numerous graduations, engagements, weddings, and more. For me, the most captivating thing about photography is its ability to tell a story.
Whether it be a surprise proposal or new items on a restaurant menu, there are countless stories in life to be told and hopefully I can be the photographer to help tell yours! I'm always up for a chat and am happy to answer any questions that you may have for me so don't hesitate to send over a message!. Rikki was an absolute pleasure to work with, I'm so happy I found him!
He has an amazing eye and really knows how to get the perfect shot with just a few clicks. He's also incredibly quick to respond, flexible with scheduling, and made me feel at ease during our shoot. And the editing turn-around time was lightning quick, can't ask for more than that.

I'm glad you wanted to learn some more about me!
I strongly believe it's important to know who am I and why I do what I do before even considering hiring me.
In case you forgot my name, hi again I'm Rikki Young!
A few quick things about me: I'm a HUGE Lakers fan, my favorite tv series was Game of Thrones (still looking for my next favorite series), I love to go on long road trips or hikes, and I am in an incredible relationship with this beautiful lady on my right!
I think it's such an incredible privilege to be a photographer.

As soon as you as you both inquire, I start to get very excited about the possibility of working with you!
From there, we schedule a phone call or a Facetime call and I answer any questions that you might have for me.
I take this time to learn some more about you two, your love story, and your wedding plans.
We then go through the itinerary of wedding day and I'll make a recommendation on how many hours of coverage you might need to fully capture everything you've outlined for me.
At this point, if you feel confident that you want me to capture your special day then I send over a contract and an invoice for you to review.

My equipment consists of professional Canon bodies, an assortment of lenses, and external lighting gear.
Engagement sessions are great for a variety of reasons.
First, we get to meet other before your wedding and get to know each other on a more personal level.
This will help both of us become more comfortable when interacting with each other and just as importantly, you and your significant other will develop more comfort around the camera as well.
Sometimes it can be challenging to step out of our shells when being photographed by a stranger, so by participating in an engagement session, come wedding day we won't be strangers anymore and you can feel more relaxed having your photos taken on your special day!
