Hello, I’m Riza and welcome to a little piece of my life! I am a Civil Engineer and own a small art business (bydreamworld.com). I enjoy many forms of art such as illustration, dance, cooking, and photography. I got my first film camera from KB Toy Store when I was a little girl. I started taking pictures in high school with my digital pocket camera I bought myself for my 15th birthday. I purchased my first DSLR camera and started taking senior pictures for my classmates. My first part time job in college was a photographer for the student newspaper (PSU Vanguard). I practiced journalism photography and took pictures at many events (runway shows, multicultural events, food festivals, etc.) around Portland.
Steeza Shots started when I was apart of the Break Dancing student club where someone called me “Steeza”. I took pictures at dance events and during practices and wanted my photos to reflect the word “steez” which pretty much means “a unique style or way of doing something”. After a long break, I reconnected with photography and revived Steeza Shots.
My style is anything that catches my eye! I enjoy taking a wide variety of photos anywhere from candid event shoots to creative model portraits. I’m open to new ideas, so if you want to get crazy and go all out to get the best shot, I’ll be ready!
I hope to create with you soon!
