We cannot be more happier with how everything turned out and with the positive responses we got from our family and friends about how Rock This Moment captured our day perfectly! He was so kind enough to send us card stock photo prints with the awesome USB drive and it all really turned out great and totally worth the wait. Thank you so much again for all that you’ve done for us Ryan Horban!!!

Ryan is AMAZING!!! My husband and I got married in June. I'm usually very camera shy and don't like being the center of attention. But when I met Ryan, he made me feel so comfortable! He has such a warm and inviting personality that made me feel calm and forget about the camera. We had such a great experience during our engagement shoot and it carried over to our wedding day.
Ryan is truly an artist at what he does. His second shooter, Justin (your inner song), was equally amazing. We absolutely love their work and we will always treasure our engagement and wedding pictures. We are excited to show it to our future kids/grandchildren. Finding the right photographer is so important and I am the one who is beyond grateful to the both of them! Choosing Ryan was the best decision. He is not only an extraordinary photographer but also a great person.

Ryan of Rock This Moment Photography recently served as the photographer in our wedding photobooth and we couldn’t have enjoyed him more. He was fun and energetic and has provided us with some excellent memories of our wedding night. He was great at encouraging people to come out of their shells and really enjoy themselves while posting with Viking hats and fake mustaches. Several wedding guests have since complimented me on how much fun he was and that he made the goofy props enjoyable and comfortable for all guests, even for the grandparents! Ryan is SUPER fun!
Quick update: It's been a year since our wedding and we moved from CA to NY. Somewhere, during the move and packing/unpacking, I misplaced our wedding pictures that Ryan took on our big day. Fortunately, he was able to send me another copy of the CD and I couldn't be more thankful! Thanks again!

What can I say....Phenomenal!!!! When looking for a photographer for our wedding we went through many, many websites and researched each one thoroughly. The first thing that caught our eye was the fact that he appeared to be fun, which is what we were looking for as well as the stunning photos on his website. I spoke with him on the telephone and could tell that our personalities would jive very well, and they did! The whole experience from start to finish was professional and done with such ease. He was perceptive to our ideas and even suggested for us to post pictures of images we liked on Pinterest so that he had a good idea of the photography style we were looking for.
On the day of our wedding he showed up with Reuben (second shooter) who was equally enjoyable as Ryan. They were both relaxing, energetic, and warm to the entire bridal party, as well as our guests and by the end of the evening we felt like we had made two new friends. We just received the photos and we were completely blown away with the quality of their work. I feel like the luckiest bride to have found Rock This Moment Photography. If I had to do it again I would choose them 100 times over! Please stop looking and book Ryan...you will not regret it!! Samantha & Danny

My husband and I hired Ryan and Rock This Moment Photography for both our engagement pictures and wedding on August 3rd of this year. Apart from the incredible pictures he took, I can say with all sincerity that my wedding would not have been what it was without Ryan's presence. He was calm, cool, and hilarious. If I needed something or looked stressed out, Ryan was there asking what he could do or to help reassure me. He made everyone laugh/feel at ease during awkward family photos. We didn't have a second shooter, but Ryan was professional and made sure to get all the shots we requested/needed. On top of it all, our photos are ridiculously awesome and we've gotten tons of compliments. He really captured our day...I've been going back over our photos again and again to relive it! I would recommend Ryan in a heartbeat. You won't get better photos or a better addition to your wedding festivities anywhere else. My husband and I look forward to many more photo sessions with this amazing talent!

Ryan is, in a word, AMAZING. I can be a VERY tough customer when it comes to photography... I love photos and have had many experiences with photographers over the years. Ryan is, by far, the best I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Why? So many reasons. He is obviously brilliant at what he does (one only needs to look at his work to see that) but there’s so much more to his work than just the finished product. He is exceedingly intentional to get a feel for WHO his clients are – their history, their style, what makes them comfortable. He then beautifully sets the stage so the personality and unique dynamics of his subjects shine through the lens. He makes you comfortable immediately, and doesn’t do ‘cookie cutter’ shots where you feel like you are going to prom. Our photos are organic, fluid and natural. They look like US. He is relentless about getting as many shots as he can, never complacent or glancing at his watch – he wanted to use every last second of sunlight. He was not above laying on the ground, crouching in uncomfortable poses, climbing on this, etc just to get the best angle. He is simply fun to be around. You just want to have drinks with him afterwards! He is so quick – our photos came back to us via a disc only a couple days after the shoot, wrapped in burlap and tied with a ribbon and sprig of rosemary – seriously, who does that these days?? Ryan and Rock this Moment Photography are really a gem – an incredibly unusual combination of raw talent, tenacious commitment to excellence, service-oriented spirit, and dedication to artistry. Our experience and the final product could not be better – I now have my photographer for all the future moments of our lives. Thank you, Ryan!!

I want to thank Ryan at Rock This Moment Photography for the Amazing job he did at our wedding 9/21/13 in Temecula California.
Our wedding was going to be particularly difficult because of the time of day we did it as well as the lack of lighting on the property. We had our wedding at 6pm and Ryan came through with flying colors.
He was able to make the property work with our needs and captured some truly amazing photo's. I have been blown away by photographers but I can honestly say that Ryan is the most talented I have ever worked with.
He had original ideas that he implemented throughout the property that blew us away. He used the lack of lighting, as well as some interesting things throughout this particular property that allowed us to have a truly individual photo album of our special day. He also took great photos of all of the "fun" moments we never want to forget on and off the dance floor with some amazing effects.
Ryan you are truly a master of your craft and I will be recommending you to any and everyone I know of. Thanks Again! - Mike & Joey Smith

Ryan is by far the BEST!! Our engagement shoot was the start to our great experience. Ryan took his time and let us do what WE wanted (so refreshing) and was very honest with us. He made it feel natural as if we took pictures kissing with a camera in our face everyday! Our pictures came back flawless and looked exactly like we'd hoped. They came back within a week and a half! Ryan only takes a few weddings a year for this reason so he can keep in great contact and provide great quality. On our wedding day Ryan said he would arrive at 2pm. I received a call at 1 saying he was 5 min from our venue and the road was closed! Not only was he going to be there early he drove nearly an hour out of the way to get there before me! He captured every detail and all the natural beautiful moments one would want to relive on their special day. Again he made it seem like a best friend was taking pictures not some random guy who needs some money. Ryans passion for not only photography but LOVE shines through him and his work. ABOLUTELY the BEST and ABSOLUTELY RECCOMENDED!

woah, like WOAH! Ryan was amazing! Given that we are from Texas and Temecula was our destination wedding, each time we came into town we not only got to touch base with Ryan and discuss wedding details but he even offered his help when finding accommodations, food venues and anything else of the like. It's hard to even mention Ryan's photography because it is so amazing it's more like a Roman Myth. Ryan made everything about our day painless as he blended into the crowd, had some fun and captured our day more amazingly than we could have possibly imagine. Stop looking for a photographer. Call Ryan now. You won't regret it, I promise. Simply phenomenal.
