Hi :) I'm Rachel, the co-owner and head photographer with AR Treasures Photography. I spent 14 years as a social worker, loving every minute of it and am even more appreciative to get to be photographing some of the BEST moments for people after helping others through their worst! I grew up obsessed with weddings, not missing a wedding show as a teen, so excited to see how each couple made their wedding unique and ofcourse getting to hear about their sweet love story. As we take photos and videos it is so fun to seek those moments that make up the love story of your wedding day!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Rachel and Andy. As someone who actually works at our venue, I thought I’d seen every angle and every corner a thousand times. Rachel and...
Andy opened our eyes to hidden pockets of beauty and transformed familiar spots into places that felt truly special for us and our guests.
From the very first phone call, Rachel put us both at ease. Like any wedding, ours had its share of hiccups. But Rachel and Andy were the steady presence I didn’t even know I needed. Rachel helped us get lost in the moment and looking at the photos now, it makes me forget about all the little things that didn't quite go as planned. They were truly the calm in the stressful events of wedding planning and even more so on our big day. In a wedding industry that's often overproduced and overcommercialized, their work felt SO real and captured true authentic moments. Thank you again, Rachel and Andy! We are so happy with your work!

ch is normally very stressful to get everything set up. They kept what we said in their survey in mind and posed us how we imagined and the photos turned out beautiful! They also already knew all the best spots for photos and were able to guide us to help us let loose and really get lost in the moment! We cannot thank them enough for all the work they put in and how gorgeous all of our photos turned out, the turn around time of getting all the photos back was outstanding! We had sneak peeks within 12 hours of our wedding which is insane, and full photo album within 2 weeks. We cannot recommend AR Treasures enough for your big day!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with AR Treasures for our wedding, and we cannot recommend them enough! From start to finish, they were a joy to collaborate with, offering ...
exceptional value and demonstrating a tireless work ethic. Not only did they capture every special moment from all angles, but the quality of their work truly speaks for itself. We were thrilled to receive over 3,000 breathtaking photos from our big day!
What truly sets AR Treasures apart is their professionalism and adaptability. Despite the unexpected changes and surprises that inevitably come with any wedding, they remained calm, collected, and quick to adjust to every situation. Their preparation was top-notch; they brought extra equipment to ensure no moment was missed, regardless of the weather or shifting plans.
It was clear that they were committed to going above and beyond our expectations, and their dedication to making our day perfect was evident in every shot. We’ve been excited to follow their work on social media since our event, and we are already looking forward to booking future sessions with them. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also incredibly dependable and detail-oriented, AR Treasures is the perfect choice!

how everywhere capturing amazing pictures, but hardly seen throughout the night! The day was hectic as heck, but they required little to no direction, they just went off of the requests we had discussed prior to the wedding and started grabbing those shots the second they arrived on the scene. Not to ruin the surprise, but when you get your pictures back the presentation of the drive they come on is lovely and well packaged. They braved the crazy cold weather to get our beautiful winter wedding shots.
Thank you!

They were able to capture moments that truly told the story of our special day so we can relive the love we felt forever. 2) so incredibly kind lovely people who make you feel so comfortable. 3) efficient! We got our sneak peeks the next day and a flash drive with all the pictures within a week! They are quite the team, a talented duo with a creative eye. Hire them, you won’t regret it.

AR Treasures provided a FANTASTIC experience, great service, and beautifully captured memories of a magical day. We planned an out-of-town micro wedding in just a couple of months ...
due to family health needs. The wedding was 4 hours away from 20 of the 22 attendees so planning was a bit challenging. The bride found Rachel and AR Treasures on social media, texted, and found out the weekend they needed was the only weekend they had open that close to the date! The bride scheduled a video Skype discussion and we were immediately comfortable. Rachel expertly helped the bride and groom figure out not only "what" they wanted but also the "why" behind some of their wishes. This helped Rachel and Andy get to know them as a couple and to make complimentary suggestions. Planning from separate cities was not a problem at all and was actually almost like we were in the same room! When we finally met, there were hugs right away, like we were old friends!
AR Treasures, I am so impressed with your work... both WHAT you do and HOW you do it!! As the MOB, I have pretty high expectations and hopes for my daughter and the love of her life... You exceeded both (and set a very high bar for the follow-up home town expanded ceremony and reception, when we can have that)!! Your crew was so patient with us and our timeline and the weather and the back and forth between sites and probably more than that! You worked in stealth mode (which couldn't have been easy in such an intimate setting) yet expertly guided us to get the perfect shots. The results are wonderful. The video is so engaging. I cannot count the number of times we have watched... Mesmerized every time!
So... Potential clients... I strongly recommend Andy and Rachel.
