Rachel Gabrielse Photography

id our engagement and wedding photography for our big day in August of 2024. She was so kind and brought a warm energy to the room. She gave us direction, and at the same time let us move naturally together-- capturing hundreds (no exaggeration) of candids and intimate moments in between posed photos. We also received hundreds of photos of our guests that have brought such joy to us and our families. I would highly recommend hiring Rachel for any event, but especially if you are getting married. She goes above and beyond.

dding day. Her photography is timeless and so beautiful. Her calm, organized presence was exactly what I needed during the wedding day and I felt confident knowing nothing would go wrong with Rachel around. We received a large number of pictures just a couple days after our wedding and we are so excited to see the rest of the album.

hrilled that we were able to book her. She was incredibly kind and communicative throughout the entire process. Our entire wedding party complimented her style and said they felt so comfortable, even when we were shooting for multiple hours. My now-husband normally hates taking photos and he actually enjoyed himself. Rachel and her second shooter Lindsay were very friendly and easy to talk to, yet gave clear direction while they were shooting. Rachel delivered our preview photos 2 days after our event and we are thrilled with them! We look forward to using Rachel’s services in the future for family shoots.

time it came for us to book a photographer it was a no-brainer. Rachel is incredibly thoughtful and organized as well as being super talented at her work. She did our engagement pictures as well, which was a great chance for us to get to know each other. She also sent a bridal guide further along in the process, which contained super helpful timeline hints, general tips as well as vendor recommendations (this was extremely helpful when we sat down to hammer out a timeline! It really helps to know how long photographs will take so you can plan the rest of your day accordingly.) The day of our wedding, Rachel was an absolute superstar on one of the hottest days of the summer. I love each and every one of the photos she and her assistant took - all of this while Rachel was 7 months pregnant! After the wedding we got our previews within DAYS - which was an absolute gift. She also managed to finish our entire album before having her first baby (like I said, the woman is a superstar.) Our flash drive arrived in the mail along with a beautiful sketch drawing of one of her pictures of my husband and me, with a wooden display stand handmade for us by her father. I was absolutely blown away. Every interaction with Rachel was a joy - she is so organized (which a type-A person like me desperately needed,) and she is also one of the sweetest people you will meet. On top of all of this, her work is beautiful - she is a perfectionist and it shows. You cannot do better than Rachel - thank you so, so much for capturing our day so perfectly!!
