Riley does a great job! Quick turnaround time, personable, and effective communicator. I've used him multiple times for drone photography and am constantly impressed with the shots he gets. He is aware of the lighting and even makes suggestions as to the best time of day to take photos & videos. Highly recommend!
As a local real estate agent, I have worked with Riley on many projects, both video and photography. I continue to use him to benefit and grow my business. He does good work in a professional and timely manner. Always willing to go the extra mile and comes up with some great ideas. He's also a super nice guy!
We have hired Riley for multiple projects and we're always amazed at the detail and quality of his pictures and videos. We especially love his drone shots.
Riley has taken our company photos and job site photos many times over the past few years. I especially love his drone shots. He does great work and we will continue to hire him back.
Hi, I'm Riley Earl, owner of REF Media Company. I moved to Penn Yan in 2020 and fell in love with the Finger Lakes — and after more than 10 years behind the camera, I turned that passion into a full-time business here.
Today my work focuses on partnering with real estate agents and property owners to showcase homes at their best. Based in Penn Yan, I work with agents across the Finger Lakes to help listings stand out, attract buyers, and sell faster.

Book a Shoot →All photo media is delivered within 24 hours of your shoot — guaranteed. You'll receive a download link via email as soon as your images are edited and ready.
All files are delivered digitally via a download link within 24 hours of your shoot. You'll receive high-resolution images ready for MLS, print, and social media use.
Typically 30–60 edited photos for a standard residential shoot, depending on the size of the home and services booked. Every image is professionally edited and ready to use.
Most residential shoots take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the size of the property and services booked. We'll give you a time estimate when you book.
To get the best results, we recommend: decluttering countertops and surfaces, making all beds, turning on all interior lights, opening blinds and curtains, removing vehicles from the driveway, and ensuring the lawn and exterior are tidy. A clean, well-lit home always photographs beautifully.
Interior photography can proceed in most weather conditions. Drone flights are weather and FAA dependent — if conditions aren't safe we'll reschedule the drone portion at no extra cost. If the day is cloudy or overcast, we include sky replacement on all exterior photos at no extra charge so your listing always looks its best.
We understand schedules change. Please contact us as soon as possible to reschedule and we'll find a new time that works. We're flexible and always happy to accommodate when we can.
