After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries. My approach blends documentary-style storytelling with a touch of editorial flair—meaning I'll capture both those candid laughs during toasts and those naturally romantic moments during golden hour. The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m someone who usually avoids being in photos and never let anyone, not even my partner, take pictures of me. But working with Eric completely changed that. Quinn and I were blown away by our photos. The entire experience felt effortless, like hanging out with a friend. Eric is incredibly laid-back and easygoing, which made the session so enjoyable. If you’re camera-shy or nervous about having your photo taken, I can’t recommend Eric enough. You won’t regret it.

We are a photo and cinema team. Our niche is weddings, fashion and quinceaneras. We love what we do and our foundation is Jesus. Without Him we would not be here. We are a destination team as well. We travel the U.S. and abroad.

Words cannot fully express the gratitude we feel for the incredible team behind R&R Productions! From the moment we met them during our engagement shoot, they instantly made us feel at ease, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something genuinely fun and unforgettable. Their warm personalities, unmatched professionalism, and creative vision were evident right from the start. When it came to our wedding day—the most important day of our lives—they didn’t just capture moments; they captured the very essence of love, joy, and celebration that surrounded us. They didn’t feel like vendors; they felt like family, celebrating alongside us while documenting each precious second. They even covered us in prayer, which meant so much to us. Raphael worked through an injury without us knowing, simply because he didn’t want us to adjust anything for him. That level of dedication and selflessness left us in awe. They don’t just take pictures and record videos; they weave a story from the beginning to the end, preserving the magic and emotions in a way that’s truly extraordinary. And I just don’t even know where to begin with Rasheeda. We met through a Facebook post I replied to—one I initially thought was a scam. Boy, was I wrong! She and I ended up talking that very same day for over an hour, and it felt like we’d known each other forever. From the start, it was never just a business transaction; it felt like family helping to prepare for the big moments in life. Her warmth and genuine care meant everything to us. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky to have crossed paths with this amazing team, but I am forever grateful that we did. I honestly feel like I should keep them on retainer for every milestone in life because I cannot imagine anyone else being able to document such meaningful moments with the care and dedication they do. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly! Jerome and I are so grateful for the both of you.
