Ritrato Photography Blog bio picture

about us and our style

we are pam and ritchie and we are ritrato photography. we decided to call our business ritrato photography because in our own language, ritrato means, portrait, picture or frames.   we wanted to carry a bit of our heritage in wherever we might end up in and share it with whoever we might meet. leaving our country, philippines,  to live in singapore and USA makes us appreciate even more the differences of our cultures and the uniqueness of each individual that we meet. it is not any surprise to us then that our style of photography is immensely  influenced with the vibrancy and heartbeat of each culture.     

with fresh eyes, we love and enjoy doing shoots in totally ordinary places and turning them into fine works of art.  we revel in taking pictures of people in their element, in their basic moments. And nothing beats our joy in framing special moments that could never again be recaptured.  

FUN. CANDID. PASSION.   that’s how we love it.  we want to take pictures of people \in events as they unfold.  

SUNNY. RAINY. SNOWY.   we love the challenges that each unique situation present to us,  making the shots not anywhere near mundane but phenomenal.   

FRIENDS. FAMILY. GOD.     we, ritchie and pam,  are born to be friends and we would not have started if not for the overwhelming support and love of our other friends and family. and WITHOUT OUR GOD, WE KNOW WE'D BE NOWHERE. praise and glory to him!

Once upon a Road Trip – Summer’s last hurrah!

Rock Climbing and Photography

Crux, dyno, crag, top rope, jug – all these words were Greek to me until about a couple of months ago when a friend of mine, Josh, invited me to go rock climbing. I am not the most athletic guy but I love adventure and trying new stuff so on that very day, I went...

Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

There are a thousand reasons to visit Puerto Rico and one of them is the Old San Juan. The city comes alive with its old century charm as we take a stroll down its cobbled streets. The uneven pavement gave way for me and Nick to have a very relaxed walk...

A New Feel : Who We are

You would start noticing that we have changed our blog images to include our logo. More than anything, we felt that we needed a little stamp on those images to tell you not of who took those pictures but to share with everybody who puts a stamp on us.
Less than a year ago,...
