Ryan R Jones Photography - Event Photography Near Me

I'm so impressed with Ryan Jones on so many levels. Throughout our entire interaction he was transparent, communicative, friendly, and professional. I called around just two days ago looking for a family photographer in Houston, TX to gift my mom a photo shoot for Christmas. Ryan responded in less than an hour and somehow had availability for Christmas eve. His quote was incredibly competitive and the 30 or so 5-star Yelp reviews made me jump at the opportunity to book his services. Ryan drove quite a distance and met our rowdy family promptly an hour before sunset. He worked with us tediously to find a great background for our shoot. He took the time to photograph multiple combinations of family members and even different outfit changes. His extensive experience as a photographer (especially for engagements) was obvious as he posed us individually to show our best sides. In the moment he felt almost like a family friend. I later learned Ryan had only recently moved from Hawaii and if you have a chance to look at his portfolio, you'll realize Houston is lucky to have transplanted such a talented photographer. The best news is that he's a destination photographer, so if you're looking for a quality photos for your elopement, Ryan is the guy to call. read more

Ryan was referred to us by two friends whose wedding he photographed and they highly recommended him. He graciously accepted to be our photographer for our wedding day and even worked with us on our tight budget. He was very professional and communicative with me prior to our day and counseled me to investigate and really think about what I wanted in terms of shots and theme for our pictures. Wedding planning didn't come naturally to me so I never would have thought to even ask these questions! The day of he came early after driving from Austin to Galveston and then back up to Montgomery for our wedding. I know he was exhausted but he put his heart and soul into capturing our wedding all by himself. He worked with me and the girls on posing us perfectly and took extra family pictures as requested for us. He was even able to capture some great pics with some unenthusiastic groomsmen, ha! The pictures came out phenomenal and I'm so happy he was there to photograph our day. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family! Thanks, Ryan! read more

We recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary on the beach in Galveston, Tx. We hired Ryan over the internet, had a telephone conversation with him and everything he said he would do he did. All went just as promised. What everyone says is true. He makes you feel comfortable, gets to know you, asks the right questions, so he knows exactly what pictures you want captured. Ryan did a great job with our family photos as well as capturing many fun candid photos. We feel like we made a friend with him, even though we may never see each other again. You won't go wrong hiring Ryan. You'll get all you want and more! read more

We used Ryan for our recent elopement wedding and could not have been any happier! He was super helpful, made a lot of suggestions that actually helped us in the planning process, and our pictures came out beautifully! (I will post some). He also is super accommodating, and as another reviewer had said, very easy to be around. My wedding day was so relaxed, which is one of the main reasons we chose to elope, (we didn't want to have a stressful day!). Overall, Ryan was fun to work with, and most importantly took great pictures!! I highly recommend if you are looking for beautiful, artistic pictures and someone who will help contribute to an overall good vibe for the day! :) u read more

Let me start off by saying how AMAZING Ryan is! I've only gotten little teasers of our wedding photography, and I'm already so impressed and excited to see the rest! But let me start from the beginning! So when I first contacted Ryan over the phone, he was really personable and you immediately get a good vibe off of him. Any question you have, he will give you a very detailed answer; this guy really knows everything there is to know about photography. Closer to the wedding date, he contacted me and told me that he hurt his knee, but not to worry because he would find another photographer to take his place. He didn't want me to stress and he said he had it under control, which I fully trusted he did. On my wedding day, here comes Ryan with crutches and having to deal with my unorganized self, he was still so patient and understanding. He brought along another photographer that would take the candids, since he couldn't, and he was in charge of the portraits. Just him being there, hurt and all, giving us his services, I was truly grateful. It showed how much he dedicates himself to his work and if I could I would give him 100STARS!! Crutches and all, he went above and beyond just to make sure he got great shots for our wedding. I am BEYOND happy with all the pictures he took! I absolutely love the teasers and CANT WAIT to see the rest! If you're looking for a great photographer who can capture the love you have for each other through a shot and deliver gorgeous pictures, trust me when I say, LOOK NO FURTHER! You will NOT be disappointed!!! Thank you so much again Ryan! read more

5 stars for Ryan R Jones! We had an exceptional experience with him last Sunday. Ryan took family photos in two locations with two outfit changes. We had 25 family members. Which included 13 children and three dogs. Ryan was an absolute professional and our pictures are amazing. We are thrilled! read more

Our previous experience with another photographer wasn't great so needless to say we were nervous to hire Ryan. However, he not only did a wonderful job with our headshots but he was also great to work with. Being a team of 6 it was very difficult to set a time and date that would fit into everyone's calendar, thankfully Ryan was very accommodating even though we changed dates at least twice! When picture day finally came right off the bat Ryan made us feel very comfortable which definitely translated into beautiful headshots where we weren't stiff and forcing a smile. Ryan, thank you for being such a pleasure to work with, we would definitely hire you in the future! The Helmcamp Team read more

Ryan was very professional, well organized, and accommodating!!! We used him for our baby's first birthday. My wife, who is a peculiar about photography...well actually about everything..., saw some of his photo work and she was confident that Ryan would do a great job. The location of our daughter's birthday was outdoor seating of Panya restaurant. He was on time (in Hawaii, we have to let people know about this, because Hawaiian time is usually 15 to 30 minutes late, but he set up his equipment beforehand), started to take beautiful photos instantly. Oh, the lighting...in the photos were AMAZING!!! The photos looked great, and very stylish like photos from professional magazine. All of our friends and guests had positive experiences throughout the party with him. If you are looking for someone to take great photos for any events by any means any events, because he did a great job with very active one year old baby, then I am one hundred percent positive that he can do a great job with other events. The whole process with Ryan was professional and easy, and most importantly we really love our photos. Thank you! read more

Back in November I hired Ryan to take pictures of my 50th Birthday party celebration and they turned out amazing! Thanks again Ryan! Let's do my 60th! read more

We planned our wedding from out of state. From the beginning, Ryan was always responsive and gave us frequent calls and texts to check in and explain the full process. We could tell he was passionate about what he does and really cares about his clients, so we felt very comfortable with him from the start. Throughout the process, he was always flexible and worked with our schedule whenever we could be in town for photos or further planning. His services did not disappoint -our engagement and wedding day photos turned out amazing! We are so happy we went with Ryan and he definitely made wedding planning easier knowing you have a vendor you can trust. Thank you Ryan!! read more

When I began to look for a photographer for our engagement photos, I didn't know where to start. I turned to Yelp and messaged the top 3 companies that came up, one of them being Ryan R Jones Photography. From the moment Ryan reached back out to me I felt at ease about the whole process. Not only was his service and pricing reasonable, but he was also super personable and made sure to answer any questions we had. He made us both feel so comfortable which was nice considering we thought the photo session might be awkward. He had us send photos we liked to get a feel for what we were looking for, so I truly believe we got the very best end product that fit our style. Ryan is awesome and I would highly recommend anyone looking for a wedding/engagement photographer! read more

Ryan is such an incredible photographer and the whole process working with him for our maternity photos was so easy. He was quick to respond to any communication, recommended beautiful locations to do our photoshoot, and gave great direction on how to pose with my big pregnancy belly! He is so down to earth it made the whole photoshoot feel comfortable like we were just hanging out with a friend. In a week or two he had tons of photos ready for us, and they came out better than we ever could have imagined. They are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much Ryan for doing such an amazing job of capturing the moment and helping to create a beautiful memory! read more

If you choose Ryan R Jones photography, you will not be disappointed. I just love looking through all the beautiful photos he took during my daughter's wedding and reception.

The candid shots were priceless. Everything moves along so quickly during a wedding, so I am deeply grateful for his artistry so that we can relive that wonderful wedding over and over again. read more

My fiancé and I are so grateful to have found Ryan! We have never taken professional photos and Ryan really made us feel comfortable. Ryan is very professional and easy to work with. He worked hard to capture the photos we request. They turned out better than we could have imagined. We love our engagement photos and can't wait to for Ryan to shoot our wedding! read more

I originally heard about Ryan through some friends who used him as their wedding photographer. After reviewing their pictures I immediately wanted him as my wedding photographer as well. Ryan is extremely easy to communicate with and instantly puts you at ease. Throughout our engagement shoot Ryan offered great suggestions for poses and used sunlight beautifully. He also did a great job at making the process as least awkward as possible, because if you're no model it can be pretty dang awkward. Now that our engagements are done I'm looking forward to work with him again for the wedding! read more

Ryan was extremely professional and is very talented in what he does. We had a ceremony for our vow renewals, which included our three children. We wanted a photographer to capture those special moments and he got all of them and much more. The photos of our children's facial expressions throughout the ceremony are priceless. And his turnaround on providing the pictures was less than 24 hrs from taking them, which is absolutely amazing. You can tell that he loves doing what he does and our family was very comfortable with him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer. Thank you Ryan! read more

Ryan did such a wonderful job of both our engagement and wedding photos. After having a difficult time finding a photographer who I felt like wasn't trying to sell me something I wasn't interested in or wasn't more involved in their own ideas more than my own, it was a relief to find Ryan. Ryan took the time to get to know myself and my husband and made us feel comfortable during the whole process, which shows in the pictures. Ryan has an artistic and beautiful way of capturing every moment in a way that takes you back to feeling all the goodness over and over again! read more

Best photographer ever!!! Ryan did the photography for my engagement photos and will also be the photographer for our upcoming wedding. Ryan is very sweet and easy to talk to, he will get you into very natural and comfortable poses that look amazing! He's very easy to work with and loves to collaborate with the bride and groom to know exactly what you both want in your photos. Ryan has done photos in Hawaii and has recently moved to Texas, but is open to travel anywhere to capture your most valued memories with his gorgeous photography. read more

Thank you Ryan. I had a maternity photoshoot booked for my wife and it's been more than 2 weeks but we still glance through each pic daily. All you have to do is keep smiling and he will do the rest. Trust me he will create a long lasting memory through photos. He captured our happiness which is reflected in the pics. It's hard to find ones to print, there are just so many options. I guess we were lucky to have him available on a short notice because he recently moved from Hawaii and is creating his mark in H-town. Once he spends more time in Houston, you will have to chase him for his time. Don't step back thinking he is not popular, trust me everyone needs time but its class that speaks out. Ryan was quite frank to speak out saying he didn't have much experience for maternity photoshoot and there is where I found my photographer who is honest and respects his work. Almost any photographer can click with a camera but what I look for is respect towards work and honesty. We like uniqueness in photos and were happy to combine fun factor in all poses. I am sure Ryan can now add maternity to his portfolio too. :) read more

Ryan is an amazing and talented photographer. We have been lucky enough to have Ryan photographer our family 2 years in a row and each time he has done a fantastic job. He is very easy to work with and make everyone feel comfortable. I highly recommend him. read more

5 stars all the way around for Ryan's photography! After interviewing multiple photographers, we decided to hire Ryan for our destination wedding.

Ryan is passionate about his work and is very professional! One thing that stands out is his ability to capture candid moments. We had our engagement photos taken by another photographer but wanted more natural photos. Then we found Ryan. He really took the time to listen to what we wanted, analyzing our previous photos and even did an engagement session pro bono. We took pictures the weekend after hurricane Harvey and he drove around the morning of scouting for good locations! Very dedicated to his craft. We have booked him for our wedding and look forward to the pictures! read more

We recently hired Ryan to take our professional headshots as well as some fun pictures of my Team. He did a great job of really capturing the personality of everyone on my team and bringing out our best. The last 3 or 4 headshots I've had taken I've been told that the pictures don't look like me. Never really did understand exactly what that meant until I had Ryan take our pictures. I get great feedback and compliments on his work. I will definitely use him again in the future! Oh and did I mention he is a Veteran of our Armed Forces??? Any chance I get to support someone who has sacrificed so much for our country I am going to jump all over the opportunity! Thanks Ryan for the great pictures and your service to our country! read more

Ryan, captured extravagant photos of my fiancé and I! When searching for a photographer I wanted someone who would be able to capture raw, natural, and timeless images. Luckily, I found that In Ryan Jones's work when I saw his advertisement in the Coastal Magazine. Ryan was very easy to work with and we were very comfortable during our photo session. Professionalism, eagerness to produce high quality work, and deliver complete satisfaction to his clients emanates through Ryan and his camera. This is especially true given the fact that he was able to capture so many different shots in multiple areas in Galveston. My fiancé wanted a beach setting and I wanted a tree setting so he threw out a lot of suggestions and was willing and ready to delivery what our hearts desired. I can not wait for our wedding day when he captures the day that we will cherish for the rest of our lives! You're the best, Ryan!!!!!!! read more

My husband and I hired Ryan for our wedding at the Hotel Galvez in Galveston, TX. He had a genuine desire to capture the most amazing and unique moments from our special day. He is extremely personable and made everyone feel at ease. He went above and beyond the standard expectations of a photographer. read more

Let me begin by saying that Ryan is the best Photographer in Houston Texas. The only reason he isn't booked everyday of the year already is because he's from Hawaii and he's new to the Texas, because if he was a local I can garuntee he would be in every major bride magazine,etc. because he's just that good. He isn't awkward, weird, or anything else you might expect with a lot of other photographers. He makes the whole, quite frankly-awkward experience, considering most of us aren't models, extremely comfortable and painless. He makes it enjoyable by making you laugh the whole time and somehow manages to pose you without you even realizing he is, so your shots come out extremely natural. He does specialize in Couples and he is phenomenal at that, but he does great single portraits also because he's a very well versed and versatile photographer. During my one shoot for my senior pictures for graduating college, he agreed to going to three different backgrounds for me and wow did he impress me with how different they all came out with the different ambience. He also carried around about 5 different separate camera's, not lenses, camera's, the entire photo shoot because he's that dedicated to getting different looks and filters. And he is such a good photographer that he knows the perfect angles and more importantly the lighting so that once he takes it, he doesn't have to edit the filter at all, which I really appreciate because they come out natural and realistic, and they don't look overdone! With all of that aside, Ryan is a spectacular human being and takes customer service to the next level. He deeply cares whether you're happy with his work, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to make you happy or make anything right he can. When it comes to getting professional photographs done, he's exactly what superb service looks like, and I cannot say enough about how serious he takes his business. Just like the previous reviews said, he will do whatever it takes to do a great job (like showing up even when his foot was hurt on crutches) he paid for out of his own pocket New prints because the print company made a mistake- that wasn't his fault but he paid for over $100 because he wasn't willing to sweep the issue under he rug and not make it right. For ANY of your photography needs, Ryan is your guy. He's such a nice and great guy, we are going to have him take our engagement and wedding photo's and I'm sure whatever photo shoots we need after that. Thank you so much Ryan, your work doesn't go unnoticed! With read more

I was actually referred to Ryan through another well known photographer in Honolulu who had no open slots available until three weeks out and I needed pictures taken in the next few days. I was kind of crunched for time if you will. I phoned Ryan and and Immediately his enthusiasm and professionalism shined through the phone. I explained my project, as well as the deadline, which he understood and was open to. He was able to guide me through several very creative and artistic scenarios I wasn't even thinking about considering beforehand, but all the while keeping my initial idea and goals in mind. We agreed on a time and date to meet for the session (which was within my deadline). The day of the photo shoot, he arrived before our start time and was already getting everything ready. When we met, we discussed exactly what we were going to accomplish and we got started. This was all on location, so with his creative ability, natural resources and artistic mindset we were able to capture a set of perfect pictures I was extremely pleased with. Ryan truly loves his craft and will do most anything, including getting himself in awkward positions to get that right photo for his client. He made me feel very comfortable before and during the session and the end results were fantastic. Very highly recommended. Will definitely use his photography services again in the future. read more
