Lifesketch Photography

was during the reception and even afterwrds. PLANNING & COMMUNICATION: We had great video/phone calls and email exchanges to help figure out the vibe and make sure our goals and visions aligned. We were planning our Vermont wedding from Colorado, and she eased my nerves immensely and also helped me focus on what I wanted/needed from her. WEDDING DAY: Rachel arrived early and ready to rock! It was fun having her with the ladies while we got ready - her friendly disposition made it very easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera, for sure. I wanted to let Rachel really direct the photos for the day of the wedding as I am not comfortable getting my picture taken. I felt as though we had a great connection, her artistic eye helped us end up with some truly special images from our big day. None that I would have ever thought to ask for, I might add. ABOVE AND BEYOND: Rachel was cheerful, witty and helped out when my wedding coordinator forgot the bouquets for the ceremony - and then later disappeared for the day....ANYWAY!! I'm sure even if my coordinator hadn't left I would have still felt the same way, but in the moment Rachel was SO fantastic, she was considerate and sensitive and I simply cannot say enough great things. THE GENTS; Additionally, my husband and his friends said they enjoyed working with her during their private photo moments before and after the ceremony; same with my now in-laws. She was able to prevent any of that awkwardness and capture sweet, true and sincere moments. FINANCES: It was easy to read and understand the contract. The payment schedule was fair and made sense, and Rachel was open to conversations regarding payment when I had a small issue along the way. I also feel that the work for the price - you simply can't go wrong! Worth every penny, even more honestly. Rachel has a great eye, and truly helped make our wedding day even more special than it already was. The final product of our photos, as well as the beautiful photobook that she crafted and made for us is perfect and I love it. We just celebrated our one year anniversary this past October '24, and in speaking to family and friends recently, a number of them STILL made comments like, "You guys had that wonderful photographer, too! She was so nice and the photos...!" Anyway, if you have a "special moment" you need to capture and you want to work with someone who values those special moments, has a creative eye, is a consummate professional and also totally grounded and approachable - just reach out and to Lifesketch Photography and introduce yourself to Rachel. And no - she did not ask me to write a review. I wanted to, so that more people know about her and her photography. I wish her all the best! From One Happy Couple - Kate & Greg
