Ashley & John

Where to begin - Ruka is an incredibly talented and amazing photographer, but also a newfound friend. 
Ruka went out of her way (more than "above and beyond") to make my husband and I feel comfortable and involved in the photography process leading up to our wedding. I really vetted every vendor we worked with, and I couldn't be happier about our decision to have Ruka as our wedding photographer.
We wanted to find someone who actually cared about us and had a connection with us, because I knew that would allow us to be more open in front of the camera. Ruka was all that and a bag of chips - She got to knew us over several coffees and dinners, plus our engagement session, all leading up to the big day. 
I'm convinced that the fact that we had a real relationship with her going into the wedding allowed us to be real and genuine in front of the camera, allowing for incredible pictures. Ruka knew our dynamic as a couple and understood our vision, and boy did she deliver!
From the engagement session to the sneak peak, our photos are absolutely incredible. I am so thrilled to know that we can look back on these for years to come. 
If there is one vendor I would recommend from our entire wedding, it's definitely Ruka. I'm excited to have Ruka photograph all of our future events, and also to grab coffee as friends. We love you Ruka! Hire her already - She is without a doubt the best photographer you will ever work with!!

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!!

Jenna & Spencer

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!
