&nbsp;
Hi, I&rsquo;m Rya, a Las Vegas photographer with roots in Hawai&lsquo;i and Filipino heritage. I help people feel confident, authentic, and celebrated in front of the lens. I aim to bring empathy and connection to every session. My goal is to make each experience fun, relaxed, and full of personality. I specialize in capturing portraits and events with energy and style, and my lively Gifyyy photo booth adds an extra layer of fun.

Family is my priority and keeps me inspired. My husband and I met in nursing school. Fun fact, I&rsquo;m a cusp Gemini-Taurus and he&rsquo;s a Gemini. IYKYK 😆. We&rsquo;ve raised three amazing boys and our rescue Frenchie, Honi, who loves it when we foster fellow Frenchies.
&nbsp;
When I&rsquo;m not photographing, I&rsquo;m probably laughing at a comedy show, marveling at the sky, cheering at a VGK game, snacking on something healthy and tasty, sipping my daily organic matcha tea, or planning our next family adventure. Looking for a professional photographer in Las Vegas who will put you at ease, make you laugh, and create images you&rsquo;ll treasure? Let&rsquo;s connect!

Today, I want to talk about something that's been adding a ton of fun and a unique perspective to events these days - photobooths. Yes, you heard it right - photobooths! Photobooths - they are not just a trend, they are a great way to capture the essence of an event. They are more than just a corner where you can pose with funny props. They offer a fresh perspective, a different angle, and a personal touch to the photographs taken at your event. Now, you might be wondering - why should you consider having a photobooth at your event? Why not just stick to traditional event photography? Well, let me share a few reasons with you. First and foremost, photobooths are fun! They are an instant hit with guests of all ages. Whether it's a wedding, a corporate event, or a birthday party, photobooths provide an interactive entertainment option for your guests. They can step into the booth, pick a prop, strike a pose, and have a blast. Plus, they get a keepsake photo to remember the good times. Secondly, photobooths lend a different perspective to event photography. As a photographer, I am always on the move, capturing candid moments, group shots, and significant events. But in a photobooth, your guests get to be the photographers. They get to decide their poses, their props, their moments. It's a refreshing change from posed group photos and offers a glimpse into your guests' personalities and their funny, quirky sides. Lastly, photobooths add an element of nostalgia. They take us back to a simpler time when we used to squeeze into photo booths at fairs or malls, make funny faces at the camera, and then wait excitedly for the photos to print. A photobooth at your event can recreate that same magic and nostalgia. As a professional photographer, I've seen firsthand how a photobooth can elevate an event. It's not just about capturing memories; it's about creating experiences. It's about giving your guests a chance to let loose, be silly, and most importantly, have fun. So, whether you're planning a birthday bash, a corporate retreat, or your dream wedding, consider adding a photobooth to the mix. I assure you, your guests will thank you for it. And if you're wondering where to find a quality photobooth rental service - look no further. With my years of experience in photography, I offer photobooth rental services that guarantee fun, laughter, and lots of memorable photos. All you need to do is bring your event, and I'll bring the photobooth and the fun!

The Underrated Value of a Photobooth at Your Event

I'm happy to guide you as you begin this fascinating journey into the world of Personal Branding Photography. If you're wondering what exactly this is, you're not alone. In simplest terms, personal branding photography is a collection of professional photos that represent your brand and tell your story. These photos go beyond the traditional headshots - They are a reflection of your personality, your values, and what you bring to the table.
&nbsp;
Who's it for, you ask? Well, personal branding photography is for anyone wanting to level up their brand image. Entrepreneurs, professionals, influencers, and even corporates can benefit from it. It's for anyone who understands the power of a strong visual narrative in today's digital world.
&nbsp;
How is it used, you might wonder? The applications are plenty. These photos can be used across various platforms - from your website to social media profiles, from LinkedIn to your email signature. They help create consistency in your brand image, making your brand memorable and recognizable.
&nbsp;
Let me give you an example. Imagine you're a fitness coach. A personal branding photography session for you might include shots of you in action - lifting weights, planning workouts, interacting with clients. It might also include more candid shots - you sipping a protein shake, or laughing heartily. These images tell your audience who you are, what you do and what working with you might feel like.
&nbsp;
Now, why should you care about all this? Well, in today's digital age, first impressions are often formed online. Having professional, high-quality photos that tell your brand story can set you apart from the crowd. They can help build trust and connection with your audience even before you meet them in person. Plus, they save you the stress of scrambling for a decent photo every time you need one.
&nbsp;
So, that's personal branding photography in a nutshell. It's not just about looking good, it's about telling your unique story in a way that resonates with your audience. It's about showing up as your authentic self, and letting your audience see the person behind the brand. Because, in the end, people connect with people, not just brands.

What is Personal Branding Photography (and Why It Matters)?

Your Best Self, Captured in Every Portrait.

"Hi, I’m Rya Eisma!



I’m a proud Filipina, born and raised in Hawai’i, and now calling Las Vegas home. Photography has been my passion since childhood—my love for the craft started with a 110 film camera gifted by my Aunt, and by the time I was nine, I had already graduated to using my mom’s Pentax SLR. That first camera set me on a path that I’ve been following ever since.



While I pursued a degree in nursing and worked in healthcare to support myself and my son, photography was always in the back of my mind. After all these years, I’m back to what truly lights me up—capturing timeless moments through the lens.



I specialize in portrait photography, from professional headshots and personal branding to capturing athletes and dancers in their element. Whether you're looking for a sharp headshot, dynamic branding images, or action shots that showcase your athleticism and artistry, I’m here to bring your vision to life.
