Raeforest Photography

I truly wish that I could give Rachel more than five stars, because in my opinion, she deserves about 100. She not only is professional, courteous, kind, loving, understanding, creative, artistic, but she listens to absolutely everything that you say that you want, she’ll use your inspiration photos, listen to what pops up or what you ask of her or request. She is there to truly work with you and bring your dream to life. I met Rachel back in 2018 at a friend‘s wedding, she did such a magical job and every photo that I got to see from that magical day was truly stunning, that day, I told Rachel that one day when it is my turn, she will be the one photographing everything for me. When I got engaged, I immediately called Rachel to let her know finally it was my turn and that after all those years before she was actually going to be able to capture my magical day. In 2021 Rachel drove and met me at Mount Hood, where we took amazing and stunning engagement photos in the snow. She helped us find poses, my brother and his girlfriend met us as well as my soon to be husbands best friend and my dog. She was able to work with everyone and captured the most magical moments. While getting my engagement photos taken, I had accidentally burnt my hand with bacon grease, yes, for those wondering it was my left hand the one that’s going to be photographed all day in these photos. Rachel was able to edit the picture to make the skin match the rest of the skin on my hand to where you couldn’t even tell that there was a horrific burn on my hand. She made sure to check with me about any edits that she made to ensure that I was happy with them and approve of them before putting the final touches on it. January 2022 Rachael was there for the most magical, stunning, beautiful and loving day, my wedding day!!!!!!! She was able to capture the most magical, loving, sincere and candid moments from my big day, she captured every detail, she captured the most magical picture of my dog, who was our ring bear, and it is blown up and on my wall. She was also able to get all the details from our cake, to the table settings, from jewelry to my shoes to my dresses and every detail in-between was captured anything that I told her I wanted or was special to me, she was able to get. She showed up early to make sure to sneak around capturing the most magical moments and talk and make sure what ever you wanted or what was on your mind she was able to get. She stayed late and truly was the biggest blessing on my big day, she even helped me pack things up and the end of the night. She was truly put on this earth to be a photographer, she’s amazing at what she does but she truly cares and that’s what makes the biggest difference. I couldn’t recommend her enough to anyone who wants an amazing photographer! I get the pleasure of seeing her in 2024, she will be photographing my brothers wedding and I couldn’t be more excited that they are in the best hands! Rachael has truly become family, she simply out is the best and she cares, she gets everything you want and she gets your pictures / albums to you quickly and can make any changes you need! She was able to change some of the most precious pictures she captured for me into black and white and they are truly stunning! Whatever your photography need is, I would HIGHLY recommend you reach out to Rachael and have her take care of you, your family, loved ones and big magical day, you won’t be disappointed!❤️
