Rachel Solomon Photography

ddressed this concern flawlessly. She made us feel at ease and provided clear instructions on how to strike the perfect pose. Rachel's attention to detail and her thoroughness in understanding our expectations truly stood out. She ensured that we were all on the same page and delivered exactly what we were looking for in our wedding pictures. Rachel's style of photography is what ultimately made her the standout choice for us. Her work is romantic, candid, and captivating. Additionally, knowing that Rachel had experience with various venues gave us confidence in her ability to capture the essence of our desert wedding. Our worries about the unique setting quickly vanished when we saw how Rachel beautifully incorporated the desert terrain into our photographs. She truly exceeded our expectations and created stunning images that we will cherish forever. Working with Rachel was an absolute pleasure. Not only did she make my husband and me feel comfortable during the photo sessions, but she also showed great kindness and professionalism towards our guests and wedding party. Despite the rowdy nature of our group, Rachel handled everything with grace and managed to capture the best moments effortlessly. The first time we laid eyes on our wedding images, we were overcome with excitement and joy. Rachel managed to capture a beautiful and emotional moment between my dad and me during our first look. The image she captured brought back all the feelings and memories, and it fills me with happiness and emotion every time I look at it. To anyone considering working with Rachel Solomon, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She will take care of you and your photography needs with utmost dedication. Rachel's talent, professionalism, and ability to create truly magical moments are unmatched. Trust her to capture the essence of your special day, and you won't be disappointed.

was able to capture our most natural smiles and her visual storytelling is unmatched. Additionally, she was incredibly professional from start to finish and was consistently communicative with us every step of the way. Thank you, Rachel!

hel made being photographed a fun and memorable experience that we’ll cherish forever. I can’t emphasize enough how great of an experience we had working with her. The photos are absolutely stunning and we would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding!

use of how great she is at communicating. She is very responsive, considers your needs, and asks the right questions to prepare. She was always one step ahead of us in terms of preparation. We've received our photos and are incredibly happy with them. Multiple family members have expressed how professional, friendly, and accommodating Rachel was during our wedding as well. I cannot recommend her enough for all of your wedding/portrait photography needs!!

ate our special day. I had been searching on instagram for wedding photographers in the AZ area and I fell in love with Rachel’s work. As it turns out, she came to us highly recommended by our wedding planner. Rachel really stood out from other photographers we spoke with 1) she is an excellent & professional communicator 2) her organization and how she manages her business (expect to see detailed emails with follow-ups) 3) her warm & kind personality. Rachel always made us feel like we were her most important client. One of our favorite things about working with Rachel is her ability to take control in chaotic situations (imagine a busy wedding day with numerous vendors running around). From all the email//phone/social media communication to the small details and follow-ups, Rachel is one of the best business owners I’ve ever worked with. All that said, our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely stunning. You can expect to get 100x more than just photos working with Rachel.

y for the rest of our lives. In addition, I did voice our concerns about limiting who was able to see our photos and what was posted on social media as my sister-in-laws do not want their children’s photos on the web. Rachel addressed these concerns by reassuring us that we would be the ones getting to share the photos and would be the only ones allowing access to the online photo gallery. I would highly recommend Rachel as she is able to tell a story with her photography and is such an amazingly sweet individual. Her communication before the wedding allowed our wedding day flow seamlessly and she worked well with my wedding coordinator. If you are looking for an amazing photographer, we could not recommend Rachel enough! She is well worth the money and if we were to do our wedding over we would have not changed a thing!

tentative timeline for the day over a year before the wedding to make sure we had enough time with her at booking. She sent us albums from our venue so we knew what our photos would look like. Also, her second and assistant were very professional and helpful on the day of. Rachel took the time to learn all of our family and wedding party's names so that she could direct while working, and made the process of taking photos quick and efficient for the larger groups. She comes prepared with poses for you and scopes out areas with good lighting and a beautiful backdrop. She also finished our gallery early, which we were over the moon about. My one tiny piece of feedback for her was to let couples know ahead of time that the guest link to the image gallery will not allow downloads, that only bride & groom can download - not a huge thing. Also, make sure you email her when she puts your sneak peaks on instagram! She will email you the images so you don't have to screenshot on Instagram. Overall, you cannot go wrong with Rachel!

ediately. She had samples of previous weddings she photographed at our venue, provided us with different timelines, and was all around personable and professional. I knew seeing her photos that I had to secure her for our date, and I am so thankful we did. I don’t say this about many people, but she was PERFECTION! She made sure to meet the needs of my husband & I and our families, while also being realistic (regarding lighting, group photos, etc.). I found this to be very helpful. It showed me how serious she took her job & how much she cared about the quality of our wedding photos. When we got our wedding photos, it was a dream! We couldn’t stop looking at the gallery. All of the smiles, laughs, and tears came flooding back. She was a gift, and I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married in Arizona. She was a dream, and we plan to work with her again in the future for an anniversary or family session! Thank you for everything, Rachel!!

important moments and details on our wedding day. It was also important to us that whoever we hired was someone we would want to spend time with- your photographer is with you all day so the energy has got to be there! Let me be clear- we cannot imagine our entire wedding experience without Rachel- her attention to detail, professionalism, communication and organization was beyond anything we could have imagined. The process of working with Rachel was just the best. She is patient, and makes you feel like her only client. She went above and beyond to work with us and our family. Rachels work speaks for itself, but the service and experience she provides truly differentiates her from anyone else. You are in the best hands working with her- she is truly gifted in what she does. We cannot express how thankful we are to have had her be a part of our wedding, and capturing everything from the biggest moments to the tiniest details!

e one for our big day after our initial phone call with her. She is very professional, organized, and personable. She was always so gracious with all our questions we had through the year leading up to our day. She checked in with us many times before our big day to ensure we were always on the same page. She is always very thorough and prompt in her email responses. She had a great established working relationship with our wedding coordinators (Revel) so their communication was seamless. One of our biggest concerns was how do go about capturing our longer day with multiple ceremonies as we had a Catholic church and Jewish ceremony. Rachel was so kind to jump on a call with us to go through the details of both ceremonies and provide her professional advice on how to transition smoothly into family photos afterwards. This preplanning of the order of photos not only brought ease to Sam and me but also provided a more enjoyable day to each side of our family. We utilize our time most efficiently which was amazing as the day goes by so quickly. One of our other concerns was that Sam hates taking photos. I knew it was going to be a long day for him as we wanted to capture this day. Rachel always took that in consideration and made sure he was comfortable and having fun throughout the process. At the end of the day, he said the photo taking experience wasn’t bad at all. So special thanks for Rachel for doing that for us! Rachel also had an assistant and second photographer that helped her the day off. Her assistant made sure we got all the desired shots we requested beforehand. I am happy to report we got them all! None of these were missed and I am so grateful. Her second photographer was also so kind and delightful! At one point in our sunset shots, she took a bobby pin out of her own hair to give me so that my veil would stay in place. I was so AMAZED at the level of service her team provided. Rachel is so timely with getting photos back to you. She surprised us with our gallery a few weeks earlier than was expected. I was so happy to see these and relive the day! Sam would tell you that there is not one bad photo. Rachel and her team did an incredible job in capturing photos all our guests too. We were able to share these with our family and friends which they very much appreciated. Rachel made our day stress free with her planning and execution. If you want to work with someone who is the best at their craft but also brings a level of ease, then look no further. We LOVED working with Rachel and hoping to work with her again. Thanks a million! Helen and Sam

of and they made sure it was a great experience for me and my new husband. I can't recommend them enough!

grandparents so they could be in the photos. We are so grateful!

nd I had NO anxiety on my wedding day. My husband and I have very large families and she was able to "herd the sheep." We wanted photos that we could look at forever and remember our wedding vividly. We got those. We also got them so FAST. I highly recommend Rachel.

r wedding day her and her team were professional, kind and patient with us. We chose not to do a first look and after the ceremony Rachel captured our pictures with family, our wedding party and us so quickly and efficiently without making us feel rushed. Our pictures came out beautiful and we will truly cherish them forever. Thank you Rachel for capturing our favorite day even better than we had envisioned.

f prep work she did to get to know us better and to make sure we felt comfortable with her on the big day was impressive. It was important to me that we had a photographer that was familiar with our venue (The Royal Palms) and would take control of the schedule to ensure we got all the shots we wanted and finished on time. I cannot say enough good things about Rachel and her team. She was so organized, her team was well structured, she knew exactly where to go on property, she was thorough and coached us through all the awkward poses that wedding photos require. We got our photos back from her exactly one month after the wedding (a month early) and there wasn’t one photo we didn’t like. She did a phenomenal job capturing our personalities and our best angles. We are so in love with the photos!!! Thank you Rachel for making our day feel flawless! We are forever grateful to you and your team for all the special moments you captured.

e the entire process so seamless for us – she was easy to communicate with, organized, and made sure she kept things moving all day to capture the photos on our list, which I am so appreciative of. From the engagement session photos to the wedding photos, I am so happy with how they all turned out and would definitely recommend her to anyone in search of a fabulous photographer for your big day!

onnaire that she had my husband and I fill out to find out more about us as a couple, and learn what we like/dislike in general. She is extremely professional, punctual, detail oriented and very organized...which I Love!! At the same time, she is also so friendly, laid back and makes you feel comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rachel to anyone in need of a GREAT photographer, especially for your big day! :)

a few days later. After hearing how knowledgeable and experienced she is I hired her on the spot. I loved that she is a fellow IU Hoosier as well! Rachel was so helpful in determining our wedding timeline and the day was incredibly smooth. My bridal party couldn’t believe how organized and quick our pictures were (we chose not to do a first look). Rachel has a fantastic eye and we are so thrilled we chose her to capture our wedding day!

ering all of my concerns and questions. Rachel is a true professional, she is organized and has her system down which I very much appreciate. I was so so happy with the photos from both my engagement session and wedding day. I’ve received numerous compliments as her work is absolutely beautiful. She makes posing in front of the camera a breeze as well - she’s seriously the best.

ere incredibly organized to make sure they didn’t miss a thing! Her website and portal is also extremely easy to navigate. We cannot recommend her enough!

know the couple better. On the wedding day, she slays. She is personable yet direct (which is so necessary when wrangling bridesmaids/groomsmen/family for photos). She is talented at surveying your venue prior to the big day and finding amazing settings and landscapes for bride/groom shots. Beyond this, Rachel makes you as the bride and groom feel natural, beautiful and at ease when taking your wedding day shots. She is an amazing person and professional and I couldn't recommend working with her for your wedding day more!

king with our schedule. We ended up deciding to elope, and then have our big wedding about a year and a half later. Rachel photographed both events, and was absolutely amazing both times. Rachel was amazing at communication, she always answered our emails and questions in a timely manner. Once we got our photos back (incredible quickly), they were everything we could’ve hoped for! If you want to see you and your partner’s personalities shine through, Rachel is the person to book! I cannot recommend Rachel enough!

ay. The photos themselves are spectacular - her use of film is stunning and produces photos that no photographer can really rival. We specifically wanted film and she's the best. On the day of, she was so kind but efficient (especially with so many group variations to run through!). And she went out of her way to make sure my husband and I got some special post-ceremony shots as the sun was setting. Last, but not least, we received our photos only 3 weeks after, which was far sooner than I expected. I literally go through them everyday because they are so amazing. Cannot recommend Rachel enough for your wedding or literally any other event!

d really understand what we wanted. She listened to everything we said and captured every single moment we had talked about. She guided us through the whole process as we had never had professional photographs, so we didn’t know what to expect, but she was so patient and amazing through the engagement and wedding photos! Rachel honestly felt like a true guest at our wedding and was such a joy to have around. She was quick to adjust and make everyone happy when our mothers demanded certain photos on the day of the wedding while also making everyone aware that it was our day! On top of all this, we received the most wonderful high quality wedding album that we will be able to share for the rest of our lives. She is truly the best and an expert in her field! We can’t wait to use Rachel for all our future milestones!
