Artography that treads the line between what looks real and what feels magical
REWILD PORTRAITS
Own that wild part of your soul with art that celebrates your personal connection to nature.
I create magical portraits of you or your family, with animals and plants or environments that you have a connection with. When hanging on your wall, this art brings beauty, magic and nature to your home.
A connection to nature is scientifically proven to positively impact our mental and physical health, and specifically decrease anxiety and increase self esteem. This art grounds you to your own passion for nature. A reminder to explore, to connect and to protect the natural world.
I combine my own natural history images with portraits of you or your family. You can have your portrait taken by me or I can work from existing images you have, so you can work with me if we live in different countries.

KIND WORDS: EMMA (mother)
"When I first saw Ria's Rewild portraits, I thought I'd never seen anything so lovely. They are full of depth and colour and humour. The children and the animals are on an equal footing, both front and centre, each complimenting the other.
We decided to have a set of Rewild photos done of our four-year-old. It's a funny decision, deciding to get a child photographed now, when photos are being taken of them all the time. But these are different. They're glorious, and steeped in magic, and they give us joy. They confuse and entertain every person who comes into the house. We have six of them, which make up a wall in our house, and we find that, even two years on, we still stop and get lost gazing at them regularly. We've also given one to each of the grandparents and great-grandparents in the family, and every household has a different photo.
It is hard to find the right words to recommend Ria and her photography - they don't really get big or deep enough. She's amazing. Her vision is amazing. And the photos... well, they speak for themselves." - Emma

SOUL COMPANION PORTRAITS
The relationships we form with the animals we care for and share our lives with is unique and deeply powerful.
I create unique photomontage art that celebrates your pet, art that is so much more than some of its parts. Art that captures more meaning and memory than any one photograph could.
I work from images you send me of your pet, because those images carry memory, and I interweave them with my own images. This allows me to work with you wherever you may live in the world.
On your wall, this art brings magic, meaning and beauty to your everyday, celebrating that unique relationship you have with your pet.

HIGHLIGHT: UNITY & Fiona Porter
Fiona’s connection with Unity is interwoven with history and poignancy. I asked her why her bond with Unity is so palpable, and she shared:
“I guess one of the things is that although she still could have 10 years left in her she also has various health issues /injuries that could reoccur when you least suspect it. My mum bred her and I have had her here for 18 years. She always whinnies when she sees me (which makes me feel guilty as I don’t spend as much time with her as I could) . Horses have incredible empathy and unconditional love which it’s difficult to explain. Bringing a tear to my eye as I write this."
Fiona is industrious, very authentic and an incredible grower and florist. I thought pairing her beloved horse with a mane of flowers could be a beautiful way to represent them both in the picture.
Fiona shares her thoughts: "Thank you so much for this gorgeous image of Unity. You started off with a pretty mediocre shot of mine – her pose was quite nice as she stuck her head out the stable door, but it was quite overexposed, so how you have managed to create such a beautiful natural looking shot with that mane of flowers… Ria, you are an absolute legend, it is incredible. This is just absolutely beautiful and I will treasure it, thank you so much."
