I’m Gene —owner of G.R. Rivera Photography, U.S. Navy Senior Chief, and a photographer who believes every frame should outlive the moment. After 25+ years of military leadership, I bring precision, discipline, and deep respect for legacy into every session. My goal isn’t to take pictures—it’s to create timeless images your family will be proud of decades from now. Rooted in Hawai‘i and inspired by its spirit, I craft photography with intention, emotion, and excellence.
What Sets My Work Apart:
- Military-Level Reliability — 25+ years of leadership means I show up prepared, focused, and delivering on every promise.
- Luxury Client Experience — clear communication, smooth workflow, premium edits, and fast turnaround.
- Legacy-Driven Philosophy — every image is designed to be frame-worthy, timeless, and emotionally bold.
- Hawai‘i-Inspired Storytelling — capturing families, couples, and military members with the depth and spirit of the islands.
- Professional Gear & Craftsmanship — elite lenses, lighting, and color mastery for crisp, cinematic, high-end results.
