Riley is a photographer based in Breckenridge, Colorado, inspired by the great outdoors and the people within it - always chasing good light and even better stories.

With over 8 years of experience and a background in film and visual storytelling, Riley’s work is rooted in connection: to place, to people, and to all the moments in between. From early mornings in lift ops to long days on the trail, Riley has worked the jobs, hiked the miles, and earned the trust of the communities she photographs.

Her images blend rugged landscapes with honest, human energy, always focusing on authenticity over perfection. Think chalky high fives, patched-up puffers, and slightly overdone marshmallows.

Originally from the Midwest, she now calls the Rockies home. With a degree in Film, Television, and Media from the University of Michigan, Riley brings a cinematic, people-first approach to every story she tells, whether it's a mountain wedding, a packed concert, or a quiet moment on the trail.

Currently, Riley works as the in-house concert photographer for the Dillon Amphitheater, where she documents live music against the backdrop of Colorado’s alpine sunsets.
