Translating your love into visuals that tell your unique story with an authentic and modern feel.
I'm so excited you're here!! Your story is truly exceptional and deserves to be told in its own unique and special light. From our initial interaction to the delivery of your gallery, I promise to craft an experience that revolves around you. Our journey together will be brimming with laughter, joy, and genuine connection because understanding and celebrating your love is paramount to me. I strive for every couple I encounter to feel at ease being authentically themselves. You are the protagonist, and your narrative is unfolding—I eagerly anticipate capturing the authenticity of every moment!
MEET RUKA
STORYTELLER & WORLD TRAVELLER
My approach is pretty simple! It's all about relationships, authenticity, and intentionality. My main goal is to make this process as laid-back and stress-free as possible. I want to be a breath of fresh air, your best friend you can text on a Tuesday night about napkin colors, your go-to Friday night drinks buddy, and a shoulder to lean on for your big day! My greatest wish is that our time together feels like so much more than just a work relationship. I am here to walk alongside you on this journey you are on!

WHAT I OFFER
My Packages
I want to preserve every moment, big or small; from the heartfelt moments to the tiniest details. Whether it's the way your veil flows as you walk down the aisle, the overwhelming joy of finally saying "I do," or the laughter that fills the room during speeches, I aim for every image to feel like it belongs. These images not only document your wedding but also reflect the vibrant spirit of your love story, allowing every emotion to flood back as if it were yesterday.

READ THE STORIES
Ruka is AMAZING!! She is so kind and easy to work with. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful during my wedding photos and even sent a sneak peak of the photos within 48 hours after my wedding! I gave her a Pinterest board of my inspiration photos and she absolutely crushed it with the lighting, poses, editing, etc. I can't wait to see the rest of the photos!!
Michael & Kalie
My fiancé and I did our engagement shoot with Ruka and she is the absolute best!! She flew all the way from Colorado to DC to do our shoot. She is the absolute kindest soul you will meet. She is a great photographer but also a great human being. We were very happy with both our pictures and our entire experience with Ruka. Will definitely shoot with her again.

I am so grateful that we had Ruka capture our engagement pictures as well as our special day for us. These moments will be treasured for a lifetime. Ruka was easy to work with, made sure to know what was important to us, and definitely put this stressed out bride at ease. I cannot recommend her enough and can't wait to work with her again in the future for a family shoot!
