I am so glad you are here! Based in Richmond, with a heart for travel. I can always be found snuggling with my dog or planning my next adventure. If I can sneak it in, I am usually curled up in bed with a good book. I am addicted to the smell of peppermint, eucalyptus, and the Avatar ride at Disney World (it smells great). I believe life has so many things to offer and I just want to try it all.

Rachael was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding! From our very first interaction, Rachael was enthusiastic, engaging, and energetic - we could tell right away that she was as excited about our special day as we were. The quality of her work is simply brilliant, with picture-perfect, timeless, and incredibly creative photos that beautifully captured every moment. Rachael appreciated our vision of a traditional Catholic wedding, and she went above and beyond to ensure she captured it all in her stunning photos. We could not have asked for a better photographer - Rachael and her team were a true pleasure to have by our side, and we are thrilled with the lasting memories they've given us. You cannot find a better photographer!

My greatest joy as a photographer is making sure you can relive your wedding or elopement day exactly as it felt - every laugh, every tear, every piece of love, and all the little in-between moments that make your story uniquely yours.

Their passion and engagement was priceless, and the quality of their work was absolutely stunning. Not only did they take our beautiful elopement photos, but they met with us beforehand and helped us build out a smooth schedule, which was invaluable since we didn't have a wedding planner. The entire day ran seamlessly, from our 6am getting ready to the final farewell at the airport at 3pm.

Since 2010, Aaron Jay Photography has worked with dozens of families, couples and events. Aaron Jay Photography has always been a people-pleaser. We love photography because we get to see people smile, laugh and be joyful. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than the look on a mother’s face as she sees the pictures he has taken of her children, or the look on a father’s face when he sees the pictures of his daughter on her wedding day. Aaron Jay Photography gets great satisfaction in knowing those moments we captured through a lens will be cherished forever.

We got married in the middle of a pandemic, via Zoom. Though none of our family or friends could be here, Aaron was able to come over and photograph us from a safe distance in our backyard. The pictures are absolutely amazing- better than anything I could have expected, even for a “normal” wedding. We love Aaron.

Bhanu at Eternal Vistas showed he genuinely cared about making our day perfect. He was involved in planning every step of the wedding with us, and even monitored the forecast to suggest we order umbrellas last minute; this was a thoughtful touch that saved us. There were so many thoughtful touches that will not fit in this review (preparing a wedding outline, checking in on our mental health/stress levels when planning, suggesting a song to listen to while we looked at photos, and so many more things!!). We received sneak peek photos in less than 24 hours, and we were absolutely floored by the quality. They are beyond our wildest dreams. We had a main photographer, a videographer, and an assistant (an unexpected bonus assistant, I’ll add). Their attention to detail is clear in every shot, and the whole experience felt effortless. The value we got from working with them was outstanding and truly worthwhile. I could not recommend them enough to any couple looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond. My husband and I are grateful for Eternal Vistas and their passion for what they do. Thank you thank you thank you.
