Rachel photographed our wedding in August 2024, and the images she captured are absolutely breathtaking. Her talent is undeniable, and her positive energy is contagious. Beyond her...
incredible photography skills, Rachel is an authentic, kind, and beautiful person inside and out. I’m SO excited to work with her again for future events. I would recommend her without hesitation, again and again!
I don’t have the proper words for Rachel, nothing I say could portray (1) how amazing she is as a person, and (2) her talent. Both my partner and I felt totally comfortable, as if ...
we were just hanging with a friend we’ve known for years. The Polaroids she took have become one of my most treasured belongings and the gallery is overflowing with pictures I thought I could only dream of. 10/10 would recommend and 10/10 will be booking with her again.
Absolutely amazing! Blown away by my images, Rachel has an incredible eye for artistry & detail to showcase your confidence & beauty. She is professional, charismatic & so fun to w...
ork with. So comfortable & effortless to work with & her posing guidance brings out your best! Hands down recommend Rachel if you want not just beautiful but artistic photography!
I cannot speak highly enough about Rachel and her incredible talent. Rachel has taken our photos for three years now and each time is she organized, professional, has excellent com...
munication, and makes the experience so fun! Most recently, she was our wedding photographer. She captured all the photos we requested, last minute ideas, and had the absolute BEST time at the reception. She went above and beyond to capture our special day. She has an incredible talent of not only taking beautiful photos but telling stories with her photos. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and had fun doing it! We adore Rachel and will use her for photos for years to come!
Rachel was an absolute pleasure to work with and the photos she took came out better than I had ever imagined! She made me feel so comfortable and made the shoot incredibly fun! I ...
cannot wait to work with her again in the future!
Rachel Veltri Photo- Hands down the best decision I’ve made when it comes to hiring a professional photographer. She’s fun, energetic, outgoing, and takes some absolutely incredibl...
e photos. She makes the whole photo taking experience fun and easy. If you want to capture and share the love and memories you have Rachel is 10/10 the girl you want and need. She makes you feel warm and welcomed and will get in the mud to capture the memories.
We wanted a more editorial style photography experience for our wedding and surprise photography and Rachel truly delivered. If you're looking for an excellent experience with a tr...
ue professional who knows how to create photos that stand out look no further. These are not cookie-cutter pics and Rachel is not a cookie-cutter photographer. She's fun and inventive and really works to understand the aesthetic you're looking for and can deliver on a wide range of styles from more traditional to more editorial. Rachel is a joy to work with, prompt and professional, with all the tech to make billing and viewing photos a breeze. I can't tell you how many guests mentioned to me how impressed they were with Rachel and her team and we've been blown away by the pictures we received (early by the way). I would recommend Rachel for any photography project where you're looking for an elevated experience!
I have been following Rachel's work for years. When I first got engaged, I immediately knew she would be my photographer. She has done everything from our engagement photos and now...
wedding photos and hopefully family photos in the future. We could not be happier with the way that they turned out. She is not only a photographer but an artist. Her photos are like a work of art and her passion shines through them. She makes everyone in the room feel at ease when she is around and that means a lot when you have a husband who hates taking pictures. If you are looking for a photographer who is passionate, kind, hilarious, and wildly talented, Rachel is your girl. We cannot wait to continue not only our photos with Rachel but our friendship as well.
I am a wedding planner and worked with Rachel on a styled editorial and she is an absolutely unbelievable human being. Not only is she an exceptionally talented visual artist, but...
my god is she kind, generous and downright amazing to be around. She bought each vendor a little thank you present, had the highest energy throughout the day, was encouraging and supportive to all, and her sneak peek gallery was delivered SO FAST. Every photo blew me away - they were all eye catching, perfectly captured and downright stunning. If you are looking for a hype girl, best friend, mega talent and all around fierce business woman, look no further than Rachel Veltri Photography. She is one of the best in the business (and coming from a planner who has worked with A LOT of photographers, this holds a lot of weight.) 1000/10 stars for Rachel, she is an absolute gem.
Rachel is a consummate professional and amazing photographer. But above this, she is a warm, loving and incredibly fun person who made us feel beyond comfortable in front of her ca...
mera. Rachel has the innate ability to make her clients feel like friends and brings out the best in them. We absolutely loved working with Rachel and adore the gorgeous photos she captured from our unique love story. 10/10 recommend - Rachel will create memories you'll never forget and photos that will become heirlooms.
We knew before we even got engaged that we were going to ask Rachel to be our photographer. There is no one else on this planet that could have done a better job than her. She is t...
he most sweet, thoughtful, and caring person. Rachel has a way of making you feel so good and excited about the entire process. When we first booked Rachel we were set for December but due to some unfortunate health issues we had to reschedule and Rachel was so amazing she was there every step of the way and made us feel like everything was going to be OK. On the day of our wedding we felt like Rockstars. Rachel is your number one hype man and she makes everything so fun. We got our photos back and they are more than I could have ever expected. I look at them and it's like I'm right back there. She is so talented and if you choose her to be your photographer you won't be disappointed.
Rachel is amazing. My husband and I had no experience with professional photos prior to our wedding and Rachel made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Our pictures t...
urned out beautifully- honestly there are too many images to choose from that we are in love with. Aside from making you feel at ease, Rachel is dedicated to making sure your wedding day is completely stress-free. We told her the night before our wedding that our first look spot wasn't what we had hoped for so the morning of our wedding, she went out to scout the perfect location! She is confident, kind and a ton of fun to be around. I'm so glad we were lucky enough to nab her for our wedding!
I would like to preface this review by saying 5 stars is not enough to rate how amazing our experience working with Rachel was.
I first found Rachel on Instagram and I completely...
fell in love with her rustic, bold, and intimate style. Fast forward a couple years, my fiancé and I got engaged and I knew right away we had to work with Rachel for our engagement photos.
Leading into the engagement shoot, Rachel was so attentive and so informative. Rachel knew it was important for us to have our dog be a part of the photos so she took the time to suggest some dog-friendly places with the most GORGEOUS scenery.
To say that the engagement shoot was fun would be the understatement of the century. My fiancé and I are very introverted so we were nervous about the shoot, how to pose, how to act, what to do with our hands, etc. Looking back, we were truly worried for no reason.
Rachel has such a fun and calming presence and she really brought out the best in all of us (my fiancé, our dog, and myself). And it truly shows in all of the pictures. And I'm not talking about just ours, but you can tell that she brings out the absolute best in everyone she has worked with - I think that's what drew me to her in the very beginning, but I wasn't able to put it in the right words until I had the experience of working with her myself.
While she is based out of Colorado, Rachel is more than willing to travel. So if you're out-of-state, do not worry! We're getting married in Chicago and just hired her as our wedding photographer!
There is truly no one else we trust more than Rachel to be with us and capture our love for each other on the biggest day of our lives.
Rachel is literally the BEST!! She did both our engagement photos and wedding photos and we are just obsessed with her work. We’ve only gotten a sample of our wedding photos back a...
nd we can already tell that she captured the magic of that day perfectly! Rachel knows how to make anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and she knows how to make taking pictures so much fun! We love her so much and know for sure that if we have any other big life events that need photos, we will absolutely be asking her to take them for us :)
Look no further - you have found your perfect wedding photographer! Not only is Rachel such a talented artist, she is such an amazing person. I was drawn to her style online, but c...
hose her for how instantly comfortable and understood she made us feel (even over stupid zoom!) Rachel worked with us every single step of the way - COVID stress and all. She completely captured our love story with such perfection - I am still speechless at the final result. Not only does she capture such unique, gorgeous and "small moment" shots, she will make you and your loved ones feel so comfortable and special the entire day. She was like another bridesmaid to me and truly helped me so much - she was my calm in the chaos and I could not be more grateful for all she did for us. I really could go on but you get it, Rachel Veltri is one of a kind and you will thank yourself for hiring her. We love RVP!!!!
Rachel is absolutly amazing! She did engagement photos for my fiance and I, and they turned out better than I could have imagined. She was incredibly helpful in answering all my qu...
estions and made us feel comfortable during the shoot as well. Our original location fell through, but she was prepared and had a back up spot- which ended up being perfect! She truly can make magic happen anywhere! I can't wait for her to shoot our wedding !
Rachel is simply the best!!!! She did a boudoir shoot for me and I loved every minute. I felt so comfortable and had a blast!!! The photos turned out so good!!! The final product a...

ut so well! I was so impressed with how they turned out, it is hard to pick our favorites because they are all just so beautiful!
Everything about Rachel is truly amazing! From scheduling, to postponing due to covid, to the day of and everything in between! She brings fun energy to your day and turns out STUN...
NING photos! Our gallery was more than we expected and every photo is beautiful. Couldn’t have asked for a better day captured by the talented Rachel! Book her for all your photography needs!
Rachel is beyond amazing! She takes the time to learn your style and how to capture your wedding in the way that you have always dreamed of. She takes time to research people that ...
might not be in the bridal party, but are still important to capture: grandparents, relatives, and those special people that have made your life meaningful.
She is so relaxed, focus, and gets her job done while adding to the fun of your wedding. I genuinely do not have words for how amazing she is! I will DEFINITELY use Rachel for every important milestone in my life! You can bet I will be going to her for every maternity, family, and lifestyle shoot from here on out!
Rachel photographed my sister's wedding. Not only was her work absolutely amazing, it's like we knew her forever and she was apart of the family. So kind, so fun and professional. ...
Her work is stunning. Truly the best wedding pictures I've had the privilege to be part of and the best I've ever seen.
I have sat down to write this review several times because I’ve had trouble finding the words that will do Rachel justice.
Rachel took our engagement photos, and there was no quest...
ion that she needed to be with us to capture our wedding day, even if that meant flying her thousands of miles to be with us.
Rachel has a way with people and her camera that makes her work product natural, effortless, and unposed. There are special moments in life, especially on a wedding day, that are so random and sporadic, that they are seemingly impossible to capture, but somehow, Rachel is able to capture every single one. My husband likes to call Rachel the “Camera Ninja” because anytime friends or family would pull us aside or we would want a photo together, Rachel would pop up, almost out of nowhere, ready to take photos.
If you are looking for a photographer, I would tell you to look no further, because Rachel is, hands down, the best photographer you can consider. Rachel produced the most beautiful photos, better than anyone could have expected. While her work speaks for itself, working with Rachel is unforgettable. We didn’t know what to expect from our day, but Rachel is flexible and patient and able to handle any situation with ease. There were some stressful moments during our wedding day (try taking a group photo with 25+ people and kids), yet, Rachel’s bubbly personality has a way of making everything seem perfect.
At the beginning of the day, Rachel was more than a Photographer to us, but by the end of the night, Rachel was family.
Rachel, we wouldn’t change a single thing about our wedding day and your presence and energy made our day a thousand times more special! Thank you so so so much! We love you from the bottom of our hearts.
-Teddy and Eric.

d really listened to what we wanted and executed the ideas way beyond what we could have ever imagined! We are booking her for our wedding in 2021 and I cannot wait! It is by far the easiest decision we will be making for our special day!
My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our elopement! We were suppose to have a large wedding, but COVID cancelled everything. Not only was our year lon...
g planning put to waste, but most of our vendors were making things difficult to manage after our cancellation. Rachel Veltri was the ONLY ONE who was compassionate about our situation. We could tell she was not in the wedding business for the money. She genuinely loves what she does, and it goes without saying that her pictures are magnificent!
Rachel is INCREDIBLE to work with. She is friendly, takes beautiful photos and is so much fun to work with!! Several of our family members kept saying how much they loved our photo...
grapher for weeks after the wedding. Do yourself a favor and book her IMMEDIATELY!
Rachel is the absolute best photographer/friend/hype woman anyone could ask for.
Let me just say, Rachel is AMAZING! My fiancé and I booked her for our engagement pictures, and we could not be happier with how they turned out. Her shots are very candid and natu...
ral, so you can really feel what’s happening in the pictures. We’ve had other photo sessions with other photographers that made us pose awkwardly and the awkwardness reflected in the photos. We’ve also had other photographers who just capture 2 or 3 different poses and called it quits. Rachel did not do that!! She drove us to different spots at Red Rocks and had us do a lot of different things. We even sang Fergie!! We are so happy that we chose Rachel for our pictures and are definitely going to ask her to work with us in the future!
Seriously, 5 stars can not do this wonderful soul justice. Rachel is genuine, authentic, professional, and her energy is out of this world! When I first started following Rachel on...
Instagram I could not help but fall in love with the way she captures the raw emotion in every couple she photographs. I knew when it was my special time to get engaged I wanted her and only her to take our photos, and lord did she bless me with raw, compassionate, and authentic photos that I will forever be grateful for. I will always remember reaching out to her hoping she would be available to take our engagement photos, and her respond was “ I will always be here for you girl”. I am glad to have been able to have our photos captured by someone who genuinely loves doing what she does. You can definitely tell this is something she loves doing by being able to witness the passion she expresses through her photos, but also through her.
If I could give Rachel a million star rating, I would!! When we first met for our engagement session over a year ago, I KNEW right away that I could put all my trust in her as our ...
wedding photographer. She is so much fun to be around with a contagious energy that lights up the room! Our wedding came and went and Rachel was there for every important detail. So many of our guests commented on how fun she was to be around and how hard she worked at our wedding. She posted over 30 sneak peek pictures the morning after my wedding and had the rest of our gallery of 1,000+ pictures to us in less than 6 weeks. Rachel created memories for us that we will never forget and I am SO happy we chose her to capture our big day. She is a photographer that has easily turned into a friend and I cannot thank her enough from the bottom of my heart for all she did for us. We love ya, Rach!! xoxo
Where to begin?! Rachel is amazing, she made us feel so comfortable from day one and in front of the camera. She was flexible and helped us throughout the planning process. We're s...
o lucky to have someone capture and reflect our day so perfectly. She got us pictures so quickly and made sure everything went smoothly the day of. She was accommodating to guests, we received multiple compliments about her. You can tell she loves what she does as it is reflected in her work plus did I mention she's amazing?! I cannot wait for another excuse to use her again.
Rachel is absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough great things about her! Her professionalism, energy, everything was incredible. She did my engagement photos and will be doing my ...
wedding photos next August! I highly recommend her to anyone! Love her so much!
Rachel was an absolute gift on our wedding day which was clear to me, my husband, my family, and all of our guests. We immediately connected and I loved her style of truly capturin...
g the feels. She made the entire process stress free, fun, and simple. On wedding day, when time was flying by, she made the best use of the right moments to capture the most incredible photos of the day. She checked in with me consistently about making sure I had got the photos I wanted and if I needed ANYTHING and she really meant anything... when the rain started pouring 10 minutes before our ceremony was set to begin and we made the call to move everything inside she was quick to (first ask if it was okay) put her camera down and help reset the entire ceremony space. The following day by lunchtime (after a 4 hour early morning drive back to her home) she already had about 30 of the most beautiful photos for me to see and post. The compliments on photos have been pouring in. My wedding and memories wouldn’t have been nearly as special without her.❤️
FOR REAL!
Rachel Veltri is the most passionate, caring, fun and exciting person, and THE VERY BEST at what she does!
Her candidness and ability to connect with you are beyond what...
you could ask for with someone sharing your most memorable day. Rach knows what to do for you and when to do it. She only gives you the very best because she is the very best!
We found Rach when looking for a photographer for our engagement pictures. We loved her fun, laid back, candid style. We met and connected right away, and knew it was a good fit for our pictures. As soon as we saw our gallery, we were beyond stunned with her skills as a photographer. We knew we had to snatch her up immediately for our wedding too!!
Needless to say, our wedding pictures were exactly what we asked for. Moments that we will never get back but get to relive over and over because you can tell exactly how we were feeling at every moment by the amazing photographs she takes.
Rach has been amazing to us from minute one, helping us with our budget and timeline of events. Her turn around on our photos was 4 weeks.
We honestly cannot celebrate this amazing human more than we already do. Rach is one of a kind, the best kind! We are so grateful to her for using her gift on us!
Check out our wedding gallery on her website and see for yourself!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH RACH!!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!
Rachel is amazing. I’ve never had professional photographs taken of me, and I was nervous going into my engagement shoot in 11/18. BUT Rachel had me twisting, twirling & posing in ...
no Time. She is a delight to be around and our photos came out beautiful.
Rachel was the best photographer we could have asked for on our wedding day! As a bride who typically doesn't like having my photo taken, Rachel did a great job making me feel comf...
ortable in front of the camera throughout the day. She pulled out lots of funny tricks to make myself and my husband have fun while taking photos. Our wedding day ended up being pretty rainy but she made the best of the situation and hustled to get our photos done when the rain stopped. She even got great shots during the rain -- and she made sure we had a great time throughout the process. She turned what could have been a negative experience into a perfect day. We would recommend Rachel to anyone!
We genuinely could not be happier to have Rachel taking pictures at our wedding next year! She did engagement photos for us and they are absolutely stunning. If you're worried at a...
ll that you're unphotogenic or you're uncomfortable having pictures taken or you just feel plain awkward she's the girl for you. We are all of those things and narrowing down the pictures to the ones we want to print is seriously impossible.
Rachel is incredible! When we were looking for a photographer, it felt like so many of them had similar "bright" editing styles. We wanted someone who worked a little differently a...
nd would be able to capture the natural beauty of our mountain venue.
This girl blew us away with our engagement photos and was a blast to work with on our wedding day. Her editing style is darker, but the photos are all gorgeous. Also, she got a ton of complements from family and the bridal party on how much fun she was to be around. We love her and couldn't reccomend her enough!
If you’re that couple that thinks getting engagement photos done will be awkward, hire Rachel. Not only did we have the best time during our session, the photos she captured are ab...
solutely breathtaking. She is full of energy and unique ideas to make the shoot 100% yours. Would recommend her and her team with no hesitation!!

race, professionalism, and amazing talent! Everyone loved Rachel and her sister, who came to assist her. We had the best time with them and the photos were absolutely gorgeous! She made us so happy!
Rachel is so kind and talented. Our wedding was better because she was there.
Where do I begin!!!... Rachel encompasses everything you could ever want in a photographer. Her talent is beyond understanding and she is so in love with her job that you know your...
in good hands when you meet her and hear her laugh. She is extremely professional and truly does everything in her power to give you what you desire in your photos. Rachel and her whole team are worth ever bit and I encourage you to consider her for your special day or any event and recommend her for all your family and friends too!
Rachel is a beyond amazing photographer! We’d did our engagement photos with Rach and to say it was a blast is an understatement. I personally do not feel comfortable taking photos...
, but Rachel made me feel relaxed and confident. The photos are stunning and I cannot wait for her to be our wedding photographer!
Rachel is so lively and fun. She made my fiance and I feel so comfortable during our shoot. Her photos are so beautiful and unique. She captured our personalities perfectly.
Rachel was absolutely amazing! Book her now. You will not regret it. I booked Rachel for an engagement shoot and she will be doing our wedding later this year.
I had this vision...
of a mountain winter romantic shoot and she nailed it. She allowed us to get ready at her house, organized the timeline and eased my nerves about the entire process. Rachel made the shoot so much fun and relaxing. I can’t recommend her more.
Rachel went above and beyond any expectations that I have ever had for a photographer. From the beginning she was always open and honest with us, and made sure she could give us ev...
erything that we wanted for our big day. Rachel poured her heart and soul into our session and made me feel like a queen. Words cannot even describe how amazing she is at what she does. She will forever be my go to for any and all my future events.
We were so excited to have Rachel do our wedding this year, and made all arrangements with her months ago including the down payment. Today, she tells us that she accidentally dou...
ble booked and had to drop us. She had months to realize this oversight on her part, and now we are months behind. All we got was a "my bad" email (not even a phone call). My fiance is upset and now we have to start from the beginning again, now with less time.
We just got our engagement pictures back and I’m blown away! My fiancé and I are way awkward but Rachel is amazing at getting you to open up to capture you at your best. Not only i...
s she an amazing photographer but she’s also the sweetest person! Finding someone who truly loves their job is hard these days, Rachel exceeds that! She’s the best in the biz and I honestly can’t wait for her to shoot our wedding day!
Our experience with Rachel met every expectation we could have had. She was extremely professional, friendly, and prepared. When I say prepared, I mean she thought of every detail...
that could make our experience more comfortable and enjoyable! This included hand warmers, hot chocolate, blankets, and multiple sets of helping hands to hold our jackets and accessories. The location she selected was better than anything we had imagined and added an unexpected ambiance to every photo.
The photos themselves turned out lovely! It is clear Rachel knows exactly what she is doing behind the lens and has a great eye for detail when it comes to editing.
Rachel is a top notch photographer and human being! The experience was super fun and I am so happy and satisfied and can’t recommend her enough!
