Sharyce Rains, owner of Ripple Rain Photography, is a visionary portrait, wedding, lifestyle, editorial, and everything-in-between photographer featured in the best of weddings for the Knot, The Photogs Journal, Unscripted, Looks Like Film, and Unraveled Academy as a featured artist and instructor. She has worked with Das Bus over the years on styled photo shoots with the bus, delivering high end portraits to Bay Area families and individuals and is also a highly sought after wedding photographer.
In her own words, “A picture is a time capsule of one single moment in time. A moment no matter how much we try to recreate it will always only belong to that original place in time. That photo could bring a person back to the smell of their baby’s hair, the giggle of their toddler, the tears of a loving grandmother, the most epic love you ever felt between you and your partner. A simple photo can tell one piece of a persons story. I LOVE being able to do this for myself and other’s. I don’t photograph a lot of posed pictures and the reason for that is you aren’t truly LIVING in those moments. You aren’t creating authentic moments that you won’t to be swallowed in.”
