Family and Wedding Photographer

About Bill Rice
My name is Bill Rice and I'm a child of the 80's. I began working as a photographer in the year 2000. In this time, I have photographed for Surfer Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Hollywood red carpet galas, families, weddings, corporate events….yup, pretty much everything.
When I photographed my first wedding in 2005, I was hooked. It was exciting, fast-paced, chaotic and fun! Twenty-five years later, and over 700 weddings photographed, I'm still at it!
​
​What I enjoy most about wedding and family photography is capturing a moment in their lives, where I can freeze it in time, for the couples and families to cherish for a lifetime. When I picked up my first camera when I was 13 years old, I immediately realized it’s power where I could capture a single millisecond in history. Looking back and visiting those milliseconds is a facility I give to my clients; to visit those precious moments for a lifetime.
Apart from skill and talent, I think what has allowed me to be successful in this field is my genuine personality. I’m from New Jersey and us East-Coasters wear our hearts on our sleeve. When I come to your event you’ll immediately notice my energy, excitement and presence. I think my greatest strength is being able to set a clients at ease by ways of loose direction and a willingness to have FUN! I like to keep things professional but casual and easygoing at the same time.
I thank you for taking the time to visit my website and read my bio. The most important aspect of my website is this; if you love the photos you see in my portfolios, you’ll love the photos WE create together. The consistency in my style and approach to any photo shot I perform will be the similar style of photos you should expect from you wedding or portrait session.
