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. |

Our family/my mom's Rottweiler, Douglas had to be put down today.
He was 11 1/2 years old and will be missed incredibly. We buried him on my aunt's 5 acre property in Coral Bay overlooking a gorgeous view under a tree next to a very old stone wall... a perfect resting place.
Douglas was a very unusual dog, he preferred green peppers before steak, I once held the two out for him and he grabbed the pepper...then the steak! He also LOVED anything that smelled good, perfume, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, body wash, clothes from the dryer... and hence his love of women.
On numerous occasions when I was in high school, in the morning I would shower, then run downstairs in my towel to get clothes from the dryer... well I never made it very far because Doug would rub up against me (all 115 pounds of him) and knock me to the ground just rubbing his face into my hair while inhaling deeply. Those were happy times.
Here's a photo of Dougie I took at the beach a few months ago, right before we got Lucca.
Before we got Dougie as a puppy he was photographed by the famous Weimaraner photographer, William Wegman. The photo is too adorable for words but unfortunately I don't have it here to show.
We miss him very very much and will treasure all the photos I have of his life with us.
