Family photos are more than just pictures, they're a time capsule of this wild, beautiful, messy season of life. One day, you'll look back and think wow, they grew up so fast. And you'll be so grateful you have these photos to freeze this moment, the cuddles, the giggles, the sticky little hands that just can't get enough of you. Even when the days feel long and chaotic, these are the moments you'll wish you could bottle up forever.
My goal is to capture the real, unfiltered love and connection in your family, in my fun, playful, energetic style. The snuggles, the silliness, the pure joy, when you're tickling, playing, and loving on them just like you do every day. Because those are the moments you'll want to remember forever. You'll never regret having these photos to look back on, or to pass down to your children and grandchildren someday.
more about me
I’m drawn to the quiet, fleeting moments that often become the memories we hold onto forever, sunlight on skin, music drifting through an open home, wind tangled hair after a beach day, the sound of someone you love laughing beside you.
Raised on Martha's Vineyard I'm deeply influenced by the ocean, light, and human connection, they inspire everything I create. I’m a mother to a wild-hearted 11 year old daughter named Tanzin, she’s taught me how meaningful (and fleeting) the ordinary moments really are.
My work is rooted in emotion, honesty, and connection, creating photographs that feel less like poses and more like memories you can return to for years to come.

Greer was so friendly and warm my toddler actually had a great time! I loved how she helped guide us into poses and had us shoot in multiple locations. This was our first real family photoshoot and we were pretty clueless how to pose. She also really knew how to get our toddler’s attention and get her to smile. I couldn’t believe how happy our child looked for a full half hour! Our finished photos arrived to our inboxes really promptly after the shoot and I was SO incredibly thrilled at the results. We looked so good in so many shots! It was hard to pick just one for our holiday card. She was even able to get some great shots of our dog with us. Definitely looking forward to working with her again.

Hi Greer!
Thank you so much for sending these over. You did a beautiful job. Wow!
We weren’t sure how you’d ever get all four of us looking at the camera at the same time—no small feat with two wiggly boys!—but you made it happen. Thank you!
Thanks again and have a wonderful holiday!

Greer Rivera is THE photographer you want for your family photos! She is a joy to work with and has a natural talent for capturing sweet moments. We have worked with Greer twice now; last year for an in-home session when my son was 3-months old and recently at Land's End for an outdoor family shoot. Greer is a dream to work with; she is genuine, flexible and wonderful with kids. She is a true professional; timely and organized. She arrived early to our outdoor shoot and scouted out spots that would be best for the light. I love looking back on our photos from Greer and feel so thankful we have them to remember those early months with our son. I am sure we will continue to work with Greer for our family photos year after year.
I believe the most meaningful photographs come from real connection.
If you’re looking for images that feel honest, emotivel, and full of life, I’d love to connect with you.
I take on a limited number of sessions each summer so I can create with intention and care.
I would love to be your Martha's Vineyard family Photographer
