Rachel's photography experience comes from her love for art, and the emotion woven into every celebration.

Before even considering professional photography as a career, I attended graduate school to become an art therapist. This is where I developed a deep understanding of people’s emotions and experiences, and how those connect us together. While I felt more compelled to become a creative, my education in art therapy shaped my ability to capture moments that are both intimate and meaningful, while understanding how important it is to preserve memories with authenticity and care.
MY BEST WORK IS FOUND WHILE PHOTOGRAPHING INTENTIONALLY
n approach rooted in human connection
What began as a passion for creating emotional and visual stories quickly grew into a thoughtful, intuitive career. I specialize in crafting editorial imagery while also documenting the in-between, emotional moments as they unfold. With a calm presence and a practiced eye, I know that my couples will feel like the best version of themselves.
In 2018, Rachel transitioned into the world of wedding photography, bringing with her a unique perspective and a natural ability to connect with her couples.
To work with me is to know I am a lover of fashion, spontaneous acts of romance, and thoughtful artistry. My couples give their full attention to the experiences in front of them, and enjoy such celebrations candidly. Your wedding event deserves to be captured by a team who values the authenticity of in-the-moment emotions, and attentive story telling.
With 8 years of experience, and over 150 weddings photographed, Rachel's approach at its core is client based with a heavy emphasis on adaptability. Mastering my craft in lighting, composure, and posing. It is such a honor to bring my experience into your memories.

On our big day, Rachel took charge and handled herself with the utmost professionalism. Her eye for finding the perfect angles and locations is truly awe inspiring. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve looked through our wedding photos, and each time I find it hard to pick a “favorite” because they are all so wonderful!
Choosing Rachel was the best decision we made for our special day. Like everyone says, the day goes by in a blink of an eye. Rachel photographed everything perfectly. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime and will forever be grateful for her.
