RIAN
Hey! What’s up? My name is Rian!
➥ I’m a wedding photographer based in Cardiff, Wales, capturing love stories across the UK and beyond. Welcome to my creative space, where I turn fleeting moments into timeless memories.
➥ Originally from the Philippines, I moved to the UK in 2017 to work as a neurology theatre nurse. While saving lives was my passion, I found my true calling in capturing love stories, preserving emotions, beauty, and the magic of weddings through my lens.
➥ I believe great photography isn’t just about the images. It’s about connection. My goal is to make you feel comfortable, confident, and completely yourself in front of the camera. With a blend of artistry and documentary storytelling, I will capture your wedding day with authenticity, creativity, and care.
➥ Let’s have a chat and let’s create something magical, together! 😊
RANDOM THINGS I LOVE
Great coffee in the morning. The thrill of a close basketball game. The rush of Formula 1. Running on a crisp autumn day. Late-night pizza. Spontaneous weekend getaways. The magic of Venice and Paris. Good conversations over Chinese takeaways. The nostalgia of My Chemical Romance. The chill vibes of Hollow Coves. Acoustic EDM remixes. The genius of Avicii. Getting lost in cinematic masterpieces like Interstellar. The adventure of open-world video games like Red Dead Redemption 2. Binge-watching random YouTube videos. The deep dives of The Joe Rogan Experience. The wonder of the Hogwarts Legacy.
MY PHILOSOPHY & APPROACH
Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and my mission is to capture it in a way that feels natural, beautiful, and true to you. Photography isn’t just about images. It is about preserving emotions, telling your story, and allowing you to relive the moments that matter most.
If you feel awkward in front of the camera, don’t worry. That is completely normal. My approach is relaxed and supportive, guiding you with gentle direction to create effortless, stunning images that showcase your love authentically.
I blend documentary storytelling with artistic creativity, capturing candid, in-between moments as well as elegant, timeless portraits. My goal is to be present without being intrusive, allowing you to fully enjoy your day while I preserve it with care and precision.
Your wedding is unique, and there will never be another one like it. That is why I am fully dedicated to you, ensuring your story is captured with passion, professionalism, and heart.
