  • “Thanks so much for the photos we absolutely love them! We sat down on Tuesday night and looked through them at least 3 times for a couple of hours didn't want to stop. It was so nice having you as the photographer on the day you were super calming and great at directing to get good pics.”

  • "Ruby has a gift of capturing the dreams you’ve stored in the theatre of your mind and the ephemeral moments you wish could last forever. She pursues excellence and successfully reaches degrees above your expectations. We were stunned with how our wee, micro-wedding could look so dreamy! The final photo’s radiated such elegance, timelessness, and affection."
