My husband Daniel and I had a wonderful experience with Rick and his team. We absolutely love our wedding album! It is timeless and classic, and represents the elegance of our wedding. All of our pictures truly captured the most special moments of our wedding day and we are overjoyed to share these pictures over and over with family and friends. I will never forget Rick putting my lipstick in his pocket so I could touch up throughout the day during our pictures. He made us laugh and feel so comfortable and natural. We were so grateful to work with Rick and he was incredibly attentive and thoughtful

From our initial meeting with Rick, I knew we picked the right team to capture our wedding. From being flexible due to COVID to the professionalism his entire team displayed throughout the entire process, Rick Aguilar Studios was everything we imagined in a wedding photographer and so much more! The moments Rick and his team were able to capture really showed the love and beauty that our day was filled with. Thank you for capturing these moments and for creating such a beautiful wedding album that both my husband and I will cherish forever.

After seeing the stunning photographs that Rick took at my sister's wedding, there was no question who I wanted to photograph our wedding. Rick and Clare joined us in upstate New York for a wedding weekend at Mohonk, a Victorian castle in the mountains. Rick and Clare had everyone at ease with the photography and choreographed stunning shots. They take an event and turn it into a story through their photographs. You can tell their passion for what they do through the artwork they create and capture. They were part of the family by the end of the weekend. I couldn't recommend a more qualified and

She took the most stunning photos and we have received numerous compliments from family and friends on how beautiful our wedding pictures are. The whole studio was great to work with and made the process incredibly enjoyable. We love our wedding album and photos and would highly recommend Clare/Rick Aguilar Studios!

They say your wedding is most heavily photographed moment in your life. Well, after our wedding day, I can say that's true. So if you're camera shy or even if you're not, it's important to have someone there who can have fun with you and make you relax. Enter Clare Britt, with Rick Aguilar Studios.
Clare is amazing. She has some great ideas for unique pictures and really works with you to understand what's important to you as a couple. She asked us for a point person to help her ID the people that mattered to us the most. I think at the end of the day, we just wanted a

Working with Rick Aguilar Studios has been great. They have made everything so easy. Eliisa in the office is on top of everything. They even made my save the dates which turned out amazing. My photo guest book was beautiful all the guests at my wedding loved the pictures. Clare was great to work with she was able to wrangle the bridal party into taking some really great photos. I can't wait for my wedding album to be complete. Picking a photographer is a really big deal since you will always look back at them and Rick Aguilar Studios did not disappoint. They were on time for my wedding day

Boaz Walker for Rick Aguilar Studios is an excellent photographer with a good eye for composition, great lighting and you immediately walk out with a good professional photo without high dependency on touch-ups.
Every year, Rick Aguilar Studios host a workshop called "Know the Best Angle" with a wedding dresser and make-up artist. Initially a workshop for brides, but I am attending for usage in general media. In Hollywood, stars learn to pose Red Carpet style. I believe the Rick Aguilar Studio workshop is a must to for all of us in the predominant media world we live in. We all
