Let's talk about how your DREAM day looks like!. If we are still available for your date, we will schedule some time for a quick video call to get to know each other and make sure we’re a good fit!

If you're a fun-loving and joyful couple who wants an EXPERIENCE more than pretty pictures and make a new friend in the process, we want to be your photographer. Tip: Getting to know your photographer will help ease any concerns & calm your nerves about planning your wedding.
Book your date with a retainer & start planning!. Once you find out your date is available, turn your dreams into a reality by securing it right away. We can do it all online, or we can meet for coffee. Upon receiving your signed contract and retainer, we will email you our private login to our client resource page with so many helpful tips to help you plan your wedding and get the most out of your Ara Photography experience. We are here to help you in any way we can!
Engagement Session. Now, the fun begins! Once you've secured your date and opt-in for an engagement session. Go ahead and start thinking about a location that is special and meaningful to both of you. No worries if you don't have one; We have plenty of beautiful suggestions all over the San Antonio area. Your main job during the e-session is to LOVE ON EACH OTHER and HAVE FUN!
Planning the Details. I always tell my brides and grooms that I will be here for you both beyond just taking your photos. Everything from vendor recommendations, dress shops, and planning your timeline with your photography in mind - I got you! Two weeks before your wedding, we will walk through your timeline, go over your family shot list, and answer any questions and concerns. Expect a joyful and stress-free experience!
That's right! It's your WEDDING DAY!! Eeeeek! Your job or I should say your ONLY job is to look pretty and have fun! All eyes will be on you two, and you can relax knowing that you have a dream team of vendors that will do everything to ensure your day runs flawlessly. We will work tirelessly to deliver creative, timeless, fun photos that you both and your family can cherish forever.
Gallery Delivery. After the wedding, we get right to work on editing your photos. Once your wedding gallery is ready, you will receive that; "Pictures Up!" email. We suggest cuddling up on the couch; screen share it onto the big TV with a glass of wine or coffee, or hot cocoa as you scroll through hundreds of your photos. *Warning* Tears might be shed. Now you have the perfect day to look back on & can relive every moment of it!

ARA Photography is hands-down THE BEST! I work in the communications industry and it is very rare to find a photographer with such skills as Rocelyn. Not only is she a widely-recognized expert, she also molds future photographers at the college level. She is down-to-earth and very easy to work with... consulting with her also gave me great ideas for my wedding. Although my fiancé lived out-of-state, she accommodated us well and coached me during bridal portraits and snapped superb photos of us/family/friends at our ceremony and reception. The church requested limited movement during the ceremony and this was not a challenge for her- she was very respectful and we received excellent shots from a variety of angles and views. I'm so glad we had these memories captured by Rocelyn which will last a lifetime... and generations to come!

Working with Rocelyn was a pleasure and her portfolio speaks for itself. She is a very talented photographer and her work exceeded our expectations. She was quick to respond to texts and emails and was very accommodating with our busy schedules . Aside from her high level of professionalism Rocelyn also made it a point to work around our timeline throughout our wedding day which made it so much less stressful.

When referring photographers to my clients, ARA Photography is always at the top of my list. Beyond being super creative, professional, accommodating and affordable, Rocelyn, is laser focused on always capturing the perfect moments. We have worked numerous weddings together and I have used many of her photos in my media and marketing materials. My clients have always been thrilled with her service and products and have thanked me for referring her.
