Hi, My name is Greer Rivera.
This blog documents my life as a professional photographer, it includes photos from recent shoots, offers helpful tips for your wedding, island info, as well as my personal and travel imagery. My business is based on St.John, US Virgin Islands where I spend my winters, and Martha's Vineyard where I grew up and still return for summers. I believe photography should be natural, classic, clean and simple. Whether photographing weddings, kids, families, or commercial assignments, I create organic editorial imagery with a genuine life-stylistic approach that is full of energy. More of my work can be viewed by checking out my website: greerrivera.com To view images from your session please visit our Client Proofing section. Feel free to leave a comment, check out the navigation bar at the top that has lots of useful information or use the search bar if your looking for something specific. |

Becky and Dan had a small personal wedding at Beach Villa in Peter Bay. The only guests were their best friends, Jamie and Bruce Nelson.
The day before we had lightning and thunderstorms and thought it would be pouring all day, I had some cute photos planned with umbrellas but by morning the rain had dissipated and it was sunshine and smiles for the rest of the day!
The ceremony was at 3:30, so the light was gorgeous for the late afternoon/early evening photos we had planned.
Becky and Dan are such great people and were up for anything. I also want to thank Jamie and Bruce for being there the whole way for them, holding towels, fixing makeup and being there to cheer them on when I told them to make out! Kiss her Dan! Kiss her!
Here are some of my favorites.
These are definitely making the website!
I will put more from their wedding up soon!

Ashley and Jason were married on Cinnamon Bay on August 12th. I was flattered that they chose me to shoot their wedding since Jason is a photographer as well.
We did three locations, one session at the beginning of the day after the ceremony and one in the early evening. This was so nice, we all had a break and Ashley had a chance to get out of her dress for a while since it was nearly 90 degrees out!
Here are a few of my faves.
The Ceremony.
The Wedding party.
Love, love, love!
I LOVE THIS ONE!
It was a perfect day.
Ashley & Jason-You are a wonderful very fun couple, I hope you keep laughing together as long as you physically can! The reception photos are coming soon!

Pennie and Michael met on St.John so it was only appropriate that they returned to be married last Thursday.
They had the ceremony at the Nazareth Lutheran church in Cruz Bay. Michael and Pennie both had very large families and made for an awesome party! They had a great reception at Beach Villa.
Here's a sneak peek!
Just married!
Pennie's bouquet
So cute!

Michael showing off his moves
I loved the bubbles!
It was a beautiful wedding with an amazing couple!
Pennie & Michael- I won't wish you luck in your life together because I know you won't need it! Make sure to come back to St.John to visit as often as you can!

Hey Greer - Gorgeous photos! Wow, love the one with the red church door, but I have to say my favs are the ones with the blue boat and blue water - very beautiful colors and natural poses. You captured Pennie and Michael and all their shared smiles so well. I look forward to seeing more!
It was so nice to meet you.

Hi Greer! These photos are a VERY exciting sneak peek! I have to agree with Mindy- You captured Mike and Pennie perfectly! I absoluteley love the shot of them cuddling, barefoot sitting on the dock among many others. You have a very talented eye. I am so looking forward to seeing the rest of your work!

I met this little cutie, Anna, the other day.
She's four. Right before this picture I asked her what she wanted to be and she declared that she was going to be the first princess of New York City! Then added that she is going to make her future husband Aaron (her best friend) a player for the best baseball team!
She was too cute!
