Uriel photography

My husband and I got married in Ireland and we are so grateful to have hired Rachael and Colby!! They were troopers and drove on the other side of the road, on the other side of the car throughout the country of ROI and Northern Ireland, made sure we were eating(Colby made us breakfast and dinner and it was 🔥🔥), drinking enough fluids(Rachael made me an Arbonne fan for life), kept us laughing, timed the whole three days we traveled together so that we could make the most of every moment, and even through their sleep deprivation, hunger + thirst they still asked us if we needed anything. On top of everything, they gave us beautiful photos and a video that we have had on repeat for the past week! Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts! ♥️

I absolutely 100000% recommend Uriel Photography for so many reasons! Having a great photographer for our wedding was my biggest priority. Rachael was such a fun person to talk to, I'm so lucky to have been introduced to her by one of my friends whose wedding she photographed. We were fortunate enough to have her associate Jared do our wedding photography. I couldn't say no to her offer of him, he is a very talented photographer just like herself. I definitely can see why he is one of her associates! Jared was so professional and relaxed during the entire chaotic day. He was like a silent ninja, running around the ceremony and reception getting so many incredible shots. Looking at our gallery we were so amazed at everything he managed to capture! It is so easy to forget the details and fun things going on, but Jared preserved all of those little memories for us. He is phenomenal! After the reception we were fortunate to be able to go to the beach close by and do sunset photos. He stayed so calm and easy the whole shoot. My now husband absolutely hates taking photos, but Jared made it so simple and fun, he had us laughing the whole time! We can not be more thankful that we were able to have him as our photographer, we have all of these memories to look back on and they look incredible!! I can't stop showing off the pictures, I am so incredibly thankful to have had these wonderful, amazing, talented photographers helping make our special day so much more special!

Ahh where to start?! Rachel, Colby.. they are the freaking best!!! They are soo easy going, so kind, make things super comfortable, so fun, etc. Our wedding pictures.. AMAZING!!! Rachel did amazing at capturing the best moments of our day, but also the little details that we don't want to forget about. I love looking through my wedding pictures and I am soo happy with how they turned out. Colby also killed it with the video!! Our wedding video was unreal, he also captured every important detail, when I watch it I feel like I am reliving the day all over again. We couldn't be happier with how our pictures/videos turned out. The best part, is we now have life long friendship with them <3. If you need a photographer/videographer choose these TWO. Like really they are the freaking BEST!!!

When planning our wedding, the first thing we did was find a photographer/videographer. It's a big decision, to trust someone with the images and moments you will remember this big day by, and by choosing Uriel, we made the best decision possible. Rachel and Colby were so wonderful to work with, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing through the entire process. We just got to show up, be present, and trust them with the memories of our wedding day. When we got our photos and video back, it was even more clear that we had the best people we could have on the job. We can't stop looking through photos or playing our video over and over, and there have been tears all around. We knew that we wanted to place the most emphasis and cost on our photography and video, and we could not have been any happier with what was delivered. Rachel and Colby are professional, kind, personable, and masters of their art. Thank you , thank you.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer look no further. Rachael is seriously the best of the best! When looking for a photographer I came across her and absolutely loved her work. When I met her we immediately clicked and I knew I wanted her to capture one of the biggest days of my life! She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot and step out of our comfort zone to get “the shot.” During our wedding she helped not only capture the big moments but all the small behind the scenes that you tend to overlook on your wedding day. Rachael had our photos back to us so fast we couldn’t thank her enough. She did such a great job we then had her shoot our pregnancy announcement too. Rachael is not only the best photographer but an absolutely amazing person we are happy to have gained such a wonderful friend from our experiences with her. You won’t regret booking her!

She isn’t just another photographer! She got such amazing shots because she became part of our wedding. Our family and friends had a blast with her and my husband I absolutely LOVE our photos. The story of our day was told beautifully with what she captured. We even did a day-after shoot in a completely different scene and people don’t even know until I tell them that we were married in Glendale, but did our day-after shoot in Sedona. Thank you Rach!

Rachael is an AMAZING photographer!!! She was my number one on my list of photographers for my wedding but I didn't think it would happen since my wedding was in Temecula and she was in Utah ! After she reached out to me thanks to a mutual friend, we were able to make it work!!! As hectic as it was on my wedding day, Rachael did a GREAT job!! She captured all the special moments and little details that we always get to look back on!!! She was a lot of fun to work with and will make you feel absolutely special 💓💓 I 💯% recommend her for any event !!! - xoxo Kialani

I had Rachael shoot my wedding photos just over two years ago and I wanted to leave a review because having her do our photos was the BEST decision I made through my wedding journey. She is so incredibly talented, makes the whole process super fun and natural, and is the absolute sweetest person. I look at our wedding photos everyday and I will forever be grateful for all the beautiful moments she captured!

If you are looking for a photographer Rachael is your girl. My wife and I hired her for our wedding and we were not disappointed! Rachael is so down to earth and easy to work with. We received so many compliments from family and friends about how amazing she was and how beautiful the pictures came out. We are still recommending her to so many people! You will not be disappointed!

What can I say except Rachel is completely amazing. She is more than a photographer. I mean, her photos are spectacular of course, but she goes above and beyond for the bride and groom. I had so many of my guests tell me what a wonderful person she was and she makes you feel so at ease on that day. And the photos, like wow! I’m very particular with how I come out in photos, as anyone is, but especially because I’m the heavier side. Now when I tell you, i wish I could use her photos for everything in my life: headshot, LinkedIn profile, drivers license. But seriously, she works to make you look your very best and she captures those small moments that warm your heart years later. All in all, If you want your wedding to be absolutely perfect, you HAVE to hire Rachel.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, honestly look no further! Rachael is EVERYTHING!!! She is beyond talented. She so sweet, so kind, so energetic! My husband and I rarely have others take our picture because we’re pretty shy but Rachael was able to make us super comfortable. She was able to get us to open up. Another thing, she is very fair. Her prices are unbelievable, honestly! She works with your budget and is very understanding of how expensive weddings can be and does her very best to meet you halfway. The quality of her work is also impeccable. I truly can’t say enough good things about her. She did our engagement pictures, she did our wedding pictures and she just recently did my pregnancy announcement pictures. Honestly, she’ll probably be my photographer for life!!! You won’t regret booking her, don’t hesitate and just hire the girl! She’s worth every penny!!!

If you’re in Utah or anywhere in this world, these two will give you just what you’re looking for! Also, if you’re in the fence of doing both, photo and video, DO IT! Colby created the most perfect video of our special day with all the details We will never Want to forget! They both make things so fun and comfortable! They danced the night with us too and I LOVED IT! They are the best and you can’t go wrong with them ❤️

Rachael is amazingly talented, super fun to be around, and an overall incredible photographer to work with!! I am so grateful we were able to work with her for our engagement and wedding photos, from our first meeting we were so excited to work with her and see how the photos turned out. After seeing our engagement session photos we were FLOORED with how beautiful they turned out and could not wait to see what she would do with our wedding day. During our first session she made us feel really comfortable and honestly enjoy the photo session. Being in front of a camera can feel awkward or stiff but Rachael worked through that awkwardness with us and the session flew by with how much fun we had. We had a little over a year between our engagement photos and the wedding, but once we saw her the day of it was like no time had passed. She brought that same energy and excitement to our wedding day. Everyone was super impressed with her throughout the day with how professional and friendly she was to our family and friends. Then we got the photos back and are still in shock every time we look at them. Even some of friends with weddings coming up are using some our photos to tell their photographers what kind of shots they want to get. Rachael gave us the candids, the family portraits, the straight on shots of us, the incredible landscape photos, the detail photos, captured our friends and family enjoying the night - she got it all. We are forever grateful to have worked with Rachael and to have these incredible photos to relive the best day of our lives.

Rachael is a dream come true! Starting with our engagement shoot months before the wedding, her bubbly personality, fun approach and beautiful eye put us at ease. My fiance (now husband!) who is camera shy was feeling like an international model at the end! At our wedding, Rachael brought the same energy and light to the entire (long) day. On top of that, she was extremely organized and managed to get through our circus of family photos with time to spare. We have already seen a few teasers and our hearts are exploding. She is talented, passionate and truly cares - which is so evident in her art. We have not yet seen Colby's video (thought we can't wait!). We can say that he was professional, has a creative eye and him and Rachael are clearly a great team. We could not recommend this sweet powerhouse enough. Thank you!!

My sister found Rachael on Instagram and sent her page over as a suggestion while I was looking for a photographer for our engagement & wedding pictures. I instantly fell in love! I loved her pictures, her vision, and personality! She is the sweetest person you will ever meet. My guy is much more comfortable in front of the camera, but she made me feel at ease without making me feel awkward. She did her "research" to find the best places to shoot (for our engagement pictures) and knew what poses would look great. I am interested in doing family photos with her just for fun because she is just overall amazing!

Where do i even start?!!! Rachael is AMAZING. I have never in my life met a more kind, fun, loving girl than Rachael. I had never met her before we shot, but right when I did meet her we instantly connected and i felt like we had known each other forever. She makes you feel so confident behind the camera. She goes way above and beyond. I really honestly can’t put into words how amazing she is!! If you want perfect pictures, and the best time doing them, SHE IS YOUR GIRL!!!❤️❤️

You might as well check one thing off of your wedding to do list, because you have just found your wedding photographer. Seriously, Rachael is amazing. She photographed our engagement picture in Joshua Tree National Park, and even stayed into the night to get some amazing night shots for us. She goes above & beyond to capture you, your love, and emotions. My husband and I hate taking pictures, but she made us feel so comfortable , like we had been friends for years. She also tells you exactly how to pose, which takes off a lot of stress and feelings of being uncomfortable! She takes the time to get to truly get to know you, she is more than just your photographer! She photographed our wedding in October and I shared a few pictures on my Instagram! I had people messaging me and telling me that they thought our photos were advertisements because of how beautiful they were! Looking back on them we were able to relive our big day and experience all of the feels all over again! Thank you Rachael for capturing it all on our big day, we are so grateful! Xo

Rachel will go above and beyond to capture the perfect photo! For my engagement shoot she literally climbed mountains to take the most breathtaking pictures. If you’re not comfortable in front of the camera it’s no problem, by the end of your shoot Rachel will have you feeling like a Vouge model. Booking Rachel for my wedding was the best decision I made.....besides taking the groom of course😜

Rachael is not only a superb photographer, but also a stellar human being. She does not treat you like a client, but instead makes you feel like a long lost friend, and valued treasure. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and captures beyond the “picture perfect” moments. Rachael and her team of associates are talented, personable, and dedicated to turning your memories into photographs you will ooh-and-awe about for years to come. She is up for any and EVERY adventure, and will capture unique images that go beyond the norm. Her style is unique, and so is she! Do not hesitate to book, you won’t be disappointed!

If you are on the fence of having a videographer for your wedding, I’m here to tell you to ABSOLUTELY do it. Rachael has recently added an incredible videographer to her arsenal of options, and his name is Colby. Colby is the absolute definition of professionalism, while also being laid back enough for you to be comfortable. He goes above and beyond to get the most breathtaking shots, and watching his work all come together is nothing short of art. We got our engagement video back so much faster than we imagined, and it was unbelievable! The quality is top notch, and definitely something we will treasure and watch back for years to come. Smooth transitions, gorgeous composition, and a real talent for capturing the love between people. Colby offered us multiple options for our video, so we had a longer piece as well as a shorter video for us to be able to share to Instagram. That attention to detail really put him above other videographers we’ve seen. I am so glad this video is now in our life, it really captured the emotions of that day and transports us back. A perfect addition to the big ‘picture’ ;)

If there was a rating above excellent on here, that’s what Rachael of Uriel Photography would get. She has exceeded every possible dream and expectation I had by a landslide and I am so thankful for her! She really is the most genuine and kindhearted person I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Her work speaks for itself, as she is not your average photographer by any means. She has open communication before and during your session, making sure she captures exactly what you want. Her sessions are so much fun which I think is how she always gets such amazing shots. She has an effortless way of putting you at ease, thus makes the smiles genuine rather than posed. I love her organic style, so your LOVE is the subject, not just your faces. Uriel Photography is worth the investment and then some.

Rachel travelled all the way to Australia for our wedding in November. My husband Leo and I were a little unsure at first whether to arrange a photographer to travel all the way from the US for our wedding, but once the communication started with Rachel, there were no questions about it!! Rachel is so responsive and eager to please in any questions we had, and that’s just the start. She was absolutely incredible as our photographer!! So talented and natural in her approach and instigated options of where to take photos in her own time. We were so impressed with the way she rolled and we had full faith and trust in her style. And her photography is next level!!! We have been blown away in receiving our wedding photos. We are so so happy with them. Rachel is passionate and heart felt and we absolutely loved having her part of our special day.

Being a wedding planner, I have very high expectations for my clients. Rachael and her team did an AMAZING job for Sara + Brian's wedding. She was organized and professional in her paperwork and personable in her demeanor. The day of, the photographers arrived on time, worked hard getting the right shots and were a true pleasure to work with!! The photography turned out beautifully and we were all very happy with Uriel Photography! I look forward to working with them again! -Tala Events

First of all, Rachael is basically the coolest person in all the land. My husband and I found her by chance through a recommendation from another photographer. (I love when fellow vendors help each other out!) She was a goldmine of a find. Unfortunately, she was not available for our wedding day, but for some reason I trusted her from our first conversation which led us to use her associate. (Also, another gem of a human!) Trust your gut, people! Just from Rachael's Instagram page(s) I knew I wanted to work with her. So we went forward with the engagement session. Tony and I weren't sure what look we wanted. Until she posted about the sand dunes. And we were sold. We drove a total of 6 hours to photograph in Glamis, CA and holy crap, it was worth it! Rachael made us feel so comfortable. She made feeling awkward hilarious, she made being sweet feel even sweeter! She made us laugh and is literally the most down to earth human. We got there at 6 and didn't leave until almost 10 because we wanted to wait for star shots. (Do yourself a favor and marvel at her star shots on her Instagram @urielphotography) What a dream. On top of that, on your drive home Tony said to me "I'm glad we waited for star shots just so we could hang out with her in the meantime." She's the best. Hire Rachael! She travels, she sings, she dances, but most importantly, she captures the most perfectly imperfect candid moments. That's what memories are made of.

If your reading this review and everyone elses your on the track because Rachel is an amazing photographer!!! When my husband and I were looking for the right person for our wedding and after meeting her for the first time, I knew she was the one. She will make you laugh and make you so comfortable like you have known her for a long time. For Example; every girl has this imagination of how there engagement session would go and Rachel made that dream come true for me. She captured just all of those natural moments so beautifully. I can tell you that she is there for you every step to your special day. Thanks for being a part of our special day!!!

Rachel is seriously not our average photographer. She is patient, she is energetic, and she’s got a way of not just making people smile but capturing it! My husband and I wanted a photographer that took more than just your simple poses and captures who we are as a couple. I also have to mention that we have two kiddos and Rachel found a way to take their personalities and freeze it in a photograph. After our engagement pictures we were so happy to have chosen her as our wedding photographer. My engagement pictures before the wedding I can honestly say I never felt so beautiful! Rachel knows the angles and the ways to help you feel super comfortable in front of the camera. Everyone at our wedding complimented on how professional and funny she was. I wanted a photographer who could capture the emotions and energy of the day and Rachel did that and so much more. I wanted to favorite them all! I look thru them time and time again to relive that special day and I get tears every time. I will share my mistake so you don’t make the same. I DIDN’T book them for my video. A year later, credit card disputes, non-response from the other vendor we used and we still have basically nothing. Rachel has been an angel to help go between us and the cameraman to find the videos still exist but it has been horrible. DON’T THINK OF ANYONE ELSE! I’ve watched the amazing videos Colby has put together and I kick myself every single time for not booking with them. They are beautiful and honest people inside and out. If you want a photographer who is going to look “outside the lense” then Uriel Photography is for you! LOOK NO FURTHER! THIS TEAM IS FOR YOU!

Rachel is AMAZING. Not only is she a SUPER talented photographer, but she is so nice and makes the entire process enjoyable. My fiancé hates getting his picture taken and he even found out engagement picture session to be fun!

There are no words to express how much of an amazing photographer AND person Rachael is. By far, hiring her to capture our special day was the best decision we made, her vision and perspective are STUNNING! Rachael is inviting, professional and a fantastic artist! Our photos are BREATHTAKING. I’ve been so moved by her ability to tell our story and capture the beauty & emotion of our day. We shared our first few photos with our immediate family and it brought everyone (and of course, us) to tears! I’ll never be able to thank her enough!

Rachael is the absolute best and will be your BFF by the time wedding day rolls around. She did my family photos/ surprise engagement phots, wedding day, and day after photos. I’m absolutely in love with every single one of them. She’s a total goofball and makes the picture process so natural. She’s willing to fly, drive, walk, hike, climb just about anywhere to get some really special photos. I highly recommended her. You will not be disappointed!

Rachael is AMAZING. My husband and I absolutely loved having her as our photographer for our wedding. I also had so many compliments from our family members and friends who said she was SO much fun! She makes you feel so comfortable when taking pictures that there was never an awkward moment for us! She seriously has the best personality for a photographer. Rachael makes sure you are taken care of and is great at communicating throughout the whole process. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone! Her work is beautiful.

Rachael was hands down the easiest and nicest professional to work with leading up to and during our wedding. She provides such amazing quality art/work/sessions. She makes getting photographed easy because she is so natural at her job and makes you feel 100% comfortable. She was the only vendor I committed to way before our wedding and she was the only one I felt 100% right away about. Besides providing the best photography (ours was engagement/wedding) she is super helpful in so many wedding questions, resources, and tips. She goes waaaay above and beyond for each client <3

Let me just start off by saying Rachael is SO SO talented. She is so sweet, and makes the entire shoot so easy and fun. Her fun spirit makes you automatically so comfortable infront of the camera. She makes it easy to get the candid moments because she knows what she is doing. Her work is absolutely AMAZING. She did our engagement pictures and now our wedding. Both were so fun! Cannot wait to see our wedding images! Highly HIGHLY recommend Uriel photography!

Rachael is amazing!!! I have had the pleasure of having her do my engagement photos and in two weeks she will be doing our wedding photos. She made my fiancé laugh and smile so our pictures turned out AMAZING because she got us both to relax and enjoy in the moment! We is always up for the drive to wherever you want to take pictures! Not only her work is amazing but she has a great heart!

Uriel photography was everything I could have ever wanted in a photographer for my wedding! Rachael was very professional while working with my husband and I and kept it always light hearted and upbeat. I first found Rachael through my sister Courtney because she photographed her wedding and I was blown away with her photos and HAD to have her for mine. All around she is everything you could ever want in a photographer for any occasion. Now I have to find another reason to use her as my photographer again! We love you Rachael. Thank you so much!

Beyond happy that we decided to book Rachael as our wedding photographer. Rachael and her team have such an upbeat vibe and seriously make magic happen! She has such an amazing skill set and an eye for great shots and everything comes out with great quality and uniqueness. As a photographer I feel they went above and beyond and we absolutely can not wait to see the rest of our wedding pictures! Would absolutely recommend! We loved you guys!!!

We HIGHLY recommend @UrielPhotography! We were blessed enough to have Rachael shoot our engagement and wedding pictures and I cannot express how happy we are with both experiences. Not only does she put you at ease with how down to earth she is but she finds out what's important to you and helps to tell your personal story & style. Also, while a lot of photographers have tried to make my darker skin look lighter, she's does such an amazing big job capturing tones without lightening my tone and it is simply gorgeous!!

Where do I start!? I was so lucky to find Rachael and her team for my big day. She worked with what I could afford and had so much enthusiasm for amazing photo shoots. She was like having an extra bridesmaid, wedding planner , and best friend through out the entire process. With joy she helped me understand and preppare both engagement pictures and wedding day. Thats not only the best part! She is extremely talented with a fresh and vibrant style of photography. Always up for andventures, the possibilities are endless with Uriel photography !

Rachael is AMAZING. Shooting with her feels like hanging out with your best friend, and her photography is to die for. She is truly an artist, and we cannot imagine what our wedding would have been like without her there. We are also running out of wall space to hang the 8 million perfect photos that she gave us. She will laugh, cry, and dance the night away with you - and capture it all while she's at it! You seriously cannot find a better photographer - book her while she is still available and you will be SO glad that you did!!
