About Riley Starr.

Based out of: Dana Point, California *Always excited to travel for photography!

Experience: My photography business has been my full-time career for the last 4 years. But I have pursing my passion for photography for 7 years now. In that time I’ve had the pleasure of photographing fashion and lifestyle campaigns for a wide variety of brands, designers, entrepreneurs, and artists.

Photography Style: The key elements that define my style of shooting and editing would be natural light, soothing colors, clean composition, and organic posing. Shooting in a natural environment, especially the ocean, is where I feel my creativity with photography thrives the most.

About My Ocean Photography

The ocean has always been the most significant inspiration for my work. It just felt so natural taking my camera from the shore into the water. My eye is drawn towards the serene, calm moments between the set waves when the surface of the ocean is at ease and the light mixing with the water creates something beautiful.

Online print shop

In the fall of 2019 I launched my online print shop. The photos in the shop are a collection of moments I captured purely out of my love of being in the ocean. The locations of where each image was taken span from Hawaii, to the Adriatic Sea in Croatia, to the shores of Cabo San Lucas, and the Sea Of Cortez, Mexico, to right here in my beautiful home of Laguna Beach, California.

I am continuously humbled by how many people have felt such a connection with my work and want to display my prints in their homes!
