The best photographer you will ever get!!
I cannot rave about The Happy Studios enough!!! They are INCREDIBLE!!!
Rai and the team put you right at ease. You can't help but love them! They made me feel so comfortable and confident, it really showed in photos! Hanging out with them for a day is a gift in itself!
The photos though.... there are no words!!!! They are so above and beyond anyone else!! I can't tel you how many people have reached out to compliment them! They are so talented!!!
They were quick with getting photos back (next day with engagement shoot, and I had tons back 2 days after my wedding!). They work so seamlessly you are able to get so many shots in a short period of time! We highly recommend booking the assistant (Cyrus) and videographer/2nd shooter (Ernesto).
Everyone at my wedding loved them and I truly believe they helped make the day everything I dreamed of! They caught so many moments that I may have missed and will cherish forever.
They're worth the money. HIRE THEM

Absolutely amazing!!
We truly could not have asked for greater photographers to capture our wedding day. From planning to execution Rai went above and beyond to ensure no one was stressed out and that we were able to capture every moment of the day. From detail shots to family photos, they are absolutely gorgeous.

Amazing photos
Incredibly happy we went with Rai Allen from Happy Studios. He made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. He's really funny so everyone was laughing the whole time. He also got me a preview of about 30 amazing photos a couple of days after the wedding.

Rai & Happy Studios are Amazing!!!
WOW! My husband and I are sooooo very fortunate to have come across Happy Studios for our photography, cinematography/audio! Rai and his team were absolutely phenomenal. Not only are they super talented at what they do, but Rai's charisma really helped make our day extra special and he made our photos pop! With both care and flare, Rai was able to demonstrate his creative direction in ways that made sure to capture every moment of our special day. We are both so very happy that we chose Rai & Happy Studios for our Wedding Day! We highly recommend for any occasion! Thanks again Rai & Happy Studios!

Such an Amazing Carefree Experience
I had such a fantastic experience with Rai. He was so easy going and made the day much less stressful.
All the pre planning he helped me with was meticulous so there were no questions on the day of!
Photos looked amazing.
He was also super flexible due to COVID and gave us lots of options for rescheduling if needed. We went with our original date.
Loved working with Rai! Can’t recommend a vendor more than this!

You can't go wrong with Happy Studios :)
Happy Studios did an amazing job to capture our wedding ceremony and reception party. Rai is a really efficient and fun guy to work with. Our pre-wedding shoot was filled with fun and we never felt the need to pretend for our pictures, Rai always made sure to naturally get those feelings and expressions from us. Thank you Rai and the entire team of Happy Studios
