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.

Here is the totally adorable couple Cindy and Michael!  They were nothing short of fabulous on their wedding day, the love they shared was clearly apparent.  

The ceremony and reception was held at Kalorama Villa, With Mathayom from St.John Catering preparing some delicious food.

Here's some of the cuties!

I know that Lisa and Michael have been waiting patiently for a sneak peek of their wedding photos and while the internet is good here in the Dominican Republic I'll make it quick.  They had a wonderful ceremony at The Westin Resort  and a fabulous reception at Asolare Restaurant
