BEHIND THE LENS

Renée Rivas

Hi there! I’m Renée Rivas, a portrait and lifestyle photographer based in South Florida. My journey with photography began in my freshman year of high school, and it’s been a passionate pursuit ever since. Over the years, I’ve developed a warm, bright, and filmy style, aiming to capture timeless, authentic moments. A few years ago, I ventured into ocean photography and instantly fell in love with it.

When I’m not behind the camera, I love to surf and hang out at the beach. I am currently finishing up a M.S. Finance Degree at Florida State University, and seeing where life takes me! I will begin taking on wedding & elopement inquiries in July, after finishing my last semester of grad school! Balancing my academic journey while growing my photography business has been incredibly fulfilling journey.

Finding beauty
in the quiet, unposed moments of life

And that’s what I strive to capture – moments that feel authentic, timeless, and adventurous.
