I don't even know where to start- I feel like I could write 10 pages about how wonderful Rachel Owen is! Photography was the most important part of my wedding for me- memories last a lifetime, and I wanted to make sure every aspect of our day w...as captured beautifully. Rachel EXCEEDED our expectations, and I have, and will continue to recommend her to everyone I know, for the rest of my life. I plan on using her for all my photography needs in the future, too! It was a blessing I went to the Lemont wedding walk and met her. I still thank God I had the best photographer in the world for my wedding! I look at my pictures and still am amazed at how gorgeous they turned out...and CREATIVE! The angles, lighting, and techniques Rachel used are unique, and make her stand out among the crowd. I had over 20 photographers on my list that I inquired with...yes...over 20. (I am Greek, and had a BIG wedding!) I chose Rachel...without hesitation. My husband and I both fell in love with her personality, her infectious smile, kindness, and willingness to make the day our perfect. Anything we needed, she was there. Any questions along the way (and trust me, I think I talked to Rachel every day almost! haha ok not every day...but OFTEN), she answered with patience, and insight. She was extremely reliable for every appointment, truly professional in all aspects of running her business, and has a heart of gold. She cares about each of her clients, and builds a relationship that on your wedding day, you can just let her run with it- let her do her thing, and know that the end result will be phenomenal! We ended up having an impromptu private photo session before cocktail hour. Rachel had all these great ideas for lighting, and curtains, and poses in the mirrors. These pictures turned out to be our FAVORITE. I bought a large print from Rachel of our absolute favorite picture from that little shoot that wasn't planned...but turned out to be the highlight of our evening! I could go on and on, but I just wanted to convey that you will NOT be disappointed in Rachel. She is deserving of all the praise in the world, and I will forever be grateful for all she did for us. Our wedding would not have been complete without her talent! Thank you, Rachel! Jimmy and I adore you!
