RTW Photography Never Stopped Losing Focus

Life is a beautiful thing, that’s why perfectly capturing those big life moments is so important. Whether it is a graduation, wedding, new job, or big event, RTW Photographer is here to perfectly capture those special moments.  

RTW Photography started as Ride The Wave Photography in 2016 when Derrious picked up a camera to fulfill his dream of showcasing the latest fashion trends. In 2017, fellow photographer, classmate, and fraternity brother Tre saw an opportunity to join forces and grow the business. Originally sought after by college students across the state of Florida, RTW grew to include portrait-style photography, becoming well-known for its iconic graduation photos. 

Since 2017, RTW Photography has continued to grow, taking on new partner LaVell Monger and expanding the company to include wedding photography, story-telling, videography and even commercial services. 

As a Black-owned business located in Parramore, RTW qualified for the Minority/Women Entrepreneur Business Assistance (MEBA) Program funding assistance. Last week, the Orlando City Council approved RTW Photography for more than $35,000 that will be used for capital equipment, rent abatement, and marketing.
