A people-first photographer, Riza Peralta has been an event photographer for the last ten years.

In addition to her signature approach to Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Riza’s compelling images have been featured in national trade magazines for the dining and travel industries. Her photo-journalistic style combines a genuine excitement for people’s uniqueness with an artist’s eye for beauty.

A graduate of Case Western Reserve University, Riza says she’s always been attracted to the little moments in life – the things most people don’t see.

You’ll often find her peeking backstage, capturing a moment that makes everyone smile. “To me, photography is about really seeing people and finding something special in them that creates a memorable image.” That’s probably why she has focused on events from the start of her career—that chance to showcase unique people and their once-in-a-lifetime moment. Riza can’t wait to bring your event to life.
