Behind the Lens
HELLO! WE ARE RIVER AND THORIN, A HUSBAND AND WIFE PHOTOGRAPHY DUO IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. RIVER IS THE PRIMARY SHOOTER AND THORIN IS THE SECOND SET OF HANDS TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING RUNS SMOOTHLY AND NO MOMENTS ARE MISSED. WHEN YOU BOOK WITH US, YOU'RE GETTING MORE THAN JUST A PHOTOGRAPHER - YOU'RE GETTING AN EXPERIENCE. WE BELIEVE PHOTOGRAPHY SHOULD BE MORE THAN YOU POSING AWKWARDLY IN FRONT OF A STRANGER WITH A CAMERA, SO WE STRIVE TO MAKE EVERY MOMENT WE CAPTURE AS "YOU" AS POSSIBLE.
We want to tell your story like a best friend, not like a stranger with a camera.
Let's talk
LET'S BE HONEST, I KNOW I'M NOT GOING TO BE EVERYONE'S CUP OF TEA... BUT IF YOU THINK WE'D MAKE A GOOD FIT I'D LOVE TO CHAT! LET ME BUILD YOU A SPOTIFY PLAYLIST FOR YOUR ENGAGEMENT SESSION AND WE CAN DANCE AND SING TOGETHER LIKE WE'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR YEARS. I WANT YOU TO FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH ME, SO THAT WHEN YOU LOOK BACK AT YOUR PHOTOS YOU FEEL WARM AND FUZZY INSIDE. LETS CONNECT ON A DEEPER LEVEL. TELL ME WHAT MAKES YOUR HEART SING AND I'LL HELP YOU LET YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF SHINE THROUGH IN YOUR IMAGES. I'M HERE FOR YOU, NOT FOR LIKES. THAT MEANS I'M SPENDING OUR TIME TOGETHER TRYING TO GIVE YOU THE BEST EXPERIENCE INSTEAD OF TRYING TO GET THE SHOT THAT WILL MAKE ME GO VIRAL. IF YOU'RE STILL UNSURE, LETS SET UP A VIDEO CHAT OR A COFFEE DATE TO GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER.
