About this vendor
Obsessed with collecting experiences and emotions, this is my focus at every wedding. First trained in photography as a journalist, I mix together fly-on-the-wall photo-journalism with bits of posed photos throughout the day. My years of experience in professional storytelling, combined with my years of experience in the service industry, have prepared me for anything that could happen on a wedding day! I’m your hype girl, planner, problem solver, and personal historian!

Rachel was so awesome to work with! She sets an awesome vibe with her positive attitude, flexibility and portable speaker playing music. Her photos are gorgeous! We received over ...
50 edited photos the morning after our wedding and cannot wait to see the full gallery!
Rachel is punctual, personal, and professional! We highly recommend an engagement session with her!
Rachel flew to St. Maarten and took our engagement photos!! She was amazing to work with. My fiance can be very awkward, and Rachel made him feel very comfortable and got him out o...
f his shell! Our photos are beautiful. I would definitely recommend Rachel for any sessions you may have! She loves to travel and was so easy to work with!
If you are someone who wants absolutely gorgeous photos with someone who is an absolute joy to be around—Rachel is your girl! She is a perfect mix of laid back and well prepared! I...
’ve had engagement, boudoir, wedding, and styled shoot photos with Rachel and I loved every minute of every session with her! She did such an amazing job capturing our most precious moments and I will be booking her for any photo needs! When it came to planning for our sessions Rachel gave us all the tools and great communication to prepare us without overwhelming us with options or information! Her responses were always timely to our questions and our photos were back really quick!
Rachel exceeded expectations on the day of our elopement and beyond. She gave us so many fun prompts that made our un-photogenic selves turn out like models! I couldn't believe how...
much fun it was, and my now husband (who hides when cameras come out) actually loved the time we spent taking pictures. Nothing ever felt rushed and it was all so natural. When it came to getting our photos back...we woke up to sneak peek photos in our email inbox the day after our elopement!! She had the rest delivered before her estimated date, and included a small video! It was a dream come true to have so many we liked and it was hard to choose our favorite!! Rachel is stellar to work with and I don't think I could ever recommend anyone higher for anything! We are so honored that you could be there with us on our most important day yet, and will always cherish you and the memories you captured!!!
Rachel was amazing to work with both leading up to the wedding, during the big day as well as months after as well! I was very happy with our planning meetings prior to the wedding...
and Rachel gave awesome advice as to how the day should be laid out. The day of the wedding exceeded all of my expectations of a photographer. Not only did Rachel capture all of the beautiful moments that I ever could have wanted, she also was a wealth of knowledge for the little things that went wrong during the day. For example, during pictures, she immediately had a remedy for the amount of static happening with my dress since none of us brough Static Guard! The day went flawlessly and on schedule because of Rachel’s expertise. On top of it all, the pictures that I received back were amazing and everything that I wanted. Rachel even went above and beyond months after the wedding by finding an additional picture of my family that wasn’t in the gallery and editing out my strap that had fallen in a couple of the pictures I wanted framed. I would without a doubt ask Rachel to photograph my wedding day again or any other big life event warranting photography.
Rachel is so amazing to work with! She photographed our Engagement pictures, wedding, maternity, newborn, 1 year pictures of our son, and family pictures.
Rachel is absolutely amazing! We had the opportunity to have her shoot our engagement and wedding photos and now looking forward to have maternity pictures with her this summer!

She is super sweet and personable, willing to meet in different locations and makes the whole experience fun and comfortable!
We were so blessed having Rachel be a part of our wedding day. We let go of our wedding planner, and we were very hesitant about every planning step after that based on our bad exp...

We chose Rachel for her wonderful and very authentic feeling photos, and we were not disappointed! The process of taking pictures on our wedding day was quick, and everything she did worked well with the structure of the day. The photos themselves are amazing, and we have so many to look back on to remember the most important day of our lives!!
We loved working with Rachel! Our original photographer fell through a few months before our wedding, and we were so grateful that Rachel happened to have our date free. We were dr...
awn to her based on the style of the wedding photos we found on her website, but the best part of our experience was on our wedding day. Rachel was so calm, upbeat, and professional. She showed up early to scout the area and find great spots for all of our wedding and family photos, and she kept us on track and on time while charming the whole wedding party. Throughout the night I would forget she was even there, but as soon as we were ready to cut the cake, make a toast, or dance, she was right there ready to go. We got an exceptional photography experience and product at a fantastic price!
Rachel was an incredible photographer to work with! She was easy to communicate with, and made my husband and I both feel at ease the whole time. She took so many pictures and wen...
