About this vendor
Hi! I’m Rachel - My job is to support the heck out of you two and take all the imperfect, unplanned, and carefree photos of your day
With an educational background in journalism and experience supporting over 100 couples, I'm here to photograph your love in its most vulnerable form - all while adding that cinematic and candid flair. Basically, I know when to let those candid moments naturally unfold, but I also know when and how to pose you in a way that will make you go “How did you make us look so good?”
And As Cringey As It Might Sound… I absolutely love love. I know - every wedding photographer should be obsessed with the very emotion they’re tasked with capturing, right? But for me, being a photographer means documenting my couples’ most intimate moments while telling your story in a way that’s as true to you as possible. My affinity for love and storytelling allows me to effortlessly do both.

We decided on Rachel as our photographer before we picked anything else and I’m so glad that we did! She delivered exactly what we wanted. She was so professional and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. I highly recommend her for anyone that doesn’t feel super comfortable in front of the camera, she makes everything feel so natural. The gallery she provided us was so beautiful and I’m so glad she was there to capture our wedding day!
Rachel was amazing to work with on our wedding day! She was so kind and thoughtful throughout the whole process and even stepped in to help coordinate when needed.
She went above and beyond helping us create a timeline, talking through our schedule, and gave us resources to plan out the day. Engagement photos were also included which turned out better than I could ever expected. She really captured our love and the vibe we were going for. Cannot wait to see how our wedding photos turn out but I know they will be nothing short of amazing since Rachel took them!
Rachel. Was. Incredible.
I am not super comfortable being photographed, as a male, it's just not something that I do a lot. I should preface by saying I have done intimate photography before, but not like this! With Rachel I felt like a STAR! Even if you have zero experience in front of the camera, she will make you feel like a natural. She tells you how to pose and make everything feel so fluid and fun. There is no awkward silence, it feels like a lively conversation between you and a close friend, that just happens to result in some amazing photographs!
