“Working with Rachel was an absolute pleasure. I fell in love with her work that I saw online and booked her for our pre-wedding photoshoot and wedding in France. Living in the states and finding a photographer for our elopement in another country was a little intimidating, but Rachel made it seamless. She was very easy to communicate with, she’s friendly, personable, and professional. I felt like when we finally did meet, we already knew each other. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We are so happy with how our photos turned out. She captured our day beautifully and we can’t thank her enough for that. I would highly recommend Rachel.”

PROPOSALS
- Amanda and Alec
Working with Rachel was unreal — her vision and artistic eye was everything, and there was never a moment where she didn't have our complete trust. Our wedding day was magical, and she captured every detail and moment impeccably.
"Her images are what caught my attention, but her heart is what captivated us."
- Amanda and Alec
Her priority was understanding us as a couple and the story we wanted to tell and capture during our wedding weekend. We immediately felt like we could trust her.
"From our first interactions & calls, Rachel was professional and approachable."
- Amanda and Alec
The final gallery left us speechless. She caught everything, the moments you noticed and the ones you didn’t, and somehow made them all feel timeless.
" From our very first conversation, she had an instinctive understanding of the aesthetic we were after"
- Amanda and Alec
The real film photos were something extra special; every single one completely natural and in the moment, and they are the ones we keep coming back to
"Booking Rachel was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day.."
Alongside your custom online gallery — my clients work alongside me and my team to carefully select heirloom keepsakes to last generations to come. From albums to prints, our goal is for your images to be passed down, and last a lifetime.

Working with a limited, selected number of clients a year allows for a personal and approachable experience. I believe in advocating for YOU both during the planning process and on the wedding day itself, making sure your priorities are my priorities, and providing you with a seamless photography experience. I work well with all teams and bring a collaborative mindset to wedding weekends.
kind-hearted and approachable
I work across both digital and film photography, choosing the medium that best serves the feeling and story of each image. Rather than treating them as separate practices, I see digital and film as complementary tools. Both allow me to explore light, atmosphere, and emotion in different ways, while keeping the focus on what matters most: creating honest, distinctive images that feel true to the moment.
