Rachel McFarlin Photography

trickling out, we knew we wanted something that was unique to us. Rachel was able to work with us over email to accommodate our busy work schedules and completely understood what we were looking for. She helped narrow down the selections for where we should take our photos and provided specific sites for us to review before scheduling. After giving us a few hints on what to wear via email the time came for us to have our photo shoot. She made us feel so comfortable by cracking a few jokes and keeping the mood light. We wanted something a bit less lovey dovey and photos that played up the natural elements of San Diego. We could not be happier!!! The entire shoot was about 45 minutes and we left feeling more excited about our wedding than ever. Less than 2 weeks later we received an email with a link to our completely retouched, professional photos!! There was also a link to share with family and friends. That is basically unheard of and was SO helpful since we were waiting on them to order our Save the Dates and finish our wedding website. If you have the opportunity to work with Rachel you are in for a treat! She is a charismatic woman who makes you feel like her most important client! Thank you, Rachel McFarlin!!!!

e across her website. I instantly knew I loved her work, and then upon talking with her over the phone, I knew she was the one. Once we met her, she felt like a friend we had known for a long time. Our engagement session in downtown San Diego was so much fun. Her smile and calm demeanor instantly made both of us at ease. We were relaxed and our silly selves in front of the camera. We couldn’t be happier with our engagement and wedding photos. She knew our ceremony area well. It was a simple pop up style wedding at Wind and Sea beach. She was so helpful in giving us a great time frame and structure for our event. I was so nervous for the ceremony, I was too afraid to look at people. She captured some precious moments that I can cherish forever. Rachel is very talented and extremely professional. We got exactly what we were looking for. High quality photos of the “real us.” I absolutely recommend her for your wedding. G&Y Santos

s. Rachel started with us for our engagement pictures. They turned are beautiful! She helped to make Kris and I comfortable, caught great natural smiles, and made the pictures outstanding! We then hired Rachel for our wedding day. Our ceremony was in a Catholic church and she did a great job of getting pictures from all angles. We then went to Windansea beach for group pictures. All the pictures were stunning. She got great shots of all of the group, caught fun, candid shots and beautiful bridal portraits. Rachel's work is affordable and timely. She got everything back to us within a few weeks. I can't say enough about Rachel personally. She is so kind and was just wonderful to work with. I highly recommend choosing her for your wedding!

really enjoy the experience. Rachel also captured the artistic, beautiful details from our venue that I was really hoping for. Most importantly, we love the candid photos Rachel took - they embodied the love and joy we all felt in those special moments. Throughout the entire process, Rachel was kind, prompt, and very personable. We are so pleased with all of the photos and couldn't have asked for a better person to photograph our wedding. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone who is looking for a talented, thoughtful photographer!
