Rachel Dibs Photography

My partner and I got married in May 2023 and Rachel was our photographer. We were drawn to Rachel for the vibrance and quality of her photos, which were a perfect for for our colorful and vibrant wedding. What we had NO idea of was that we would have so much fun with Rachel on our wedding day. Neither of us felt particularly expert at wedding planning, and we were a little nervous about a day full of attention on us too. Rachel is goofy as hell and lovingly dedicated to supporting couples throughout the day. She went above and beyond at every moment, which was amazing especially because it turns out you spend A LOT of time hanging out with your photographer on your wedding day!!!!

Rachel was AMAZING to work with. As a WLW couple, we were very intentional of finding a photographer who we felt could pose us well together in a romantic style. Rachel went the distance! She was so thoughtful and intentional with our time together and went above and beyond to create and capture beautiful moments. Rachel also collaborated so well with our videographer so that the both of them could capture so many moments together throughout the day. We are beyond happy that we went with Rachel for our photography and now have these beautiful memories to share!

I have to give all the credit to my wife for starters. She found Rachel and had such a clear vision for what she wanted our photos to feel like. Rachel not only saw that vision, she elevated it in every way. From our engagement shoot at One Eyed Mikes in Fells Point, to our wedding day on May 3rd, Rachel brought her creativity, professionalism, and genuine care to every moment she captured.

The engagement session was when I first realized we had something special, Rachel used light so intentionally and understood exactly what we were going for. The results were stunning, and it made booking her for the wedding an easy decision. Fortunately, the stars aligned, and we were lucky enough to have her shoot our wedding.

On the wedding day, Rachel was phenomenal. She had scouted photo locations around Mt. Vernon, including a walk through Flower Mart. She knew exactly where to take us to make the most of our surroundings. We also captured moments at Hotel Revival, and her attention to detail made everything run so smoothly. She took the time to understand what we wanted and helped us feel comfortable and confident from beginning to end.

We’ve already received a few sneak peeks, and they honestly left us speechless. Rachel captured us in a way that felt so true to who we are. One photo in particular stood out to me not because I looked good in it, but because she somehow captured the exact energy and emotion of the moment. That’s a gift.

I can’t recommend Rachel enough. She matched our style, exceeded our expectations, and brought my wife’s vision to life in the most beautiful way. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly gets it, someone who listens, prepares, and delivers more than you hoped for, Rachel Dibs is the one.

Rachel is fantastic to work with! Her energy is evident from her very first email response. She is a great presence to have on the day - reassuring, funny, down-to-earth, and personable. Many guests at the wedding complimented how great she was. She captured lovely posed and candid moments, both indoor and outdoor. I felt so beautiful on the day, and that feeling shines through my pictures! So grateful that her pictures captured all the feelings of the day so well.

Rachel was a phenomenal photographer!! From our first phone call to our wedding day to previews to everything in between, she has been a true joy to work with! On our introductory zoom, my fiancé said he hated photos - taking them, posing for them, everything about them. I worried we would scare Rachel off, but she was ready for the challenge of an anti-photo groom. Come our wedding weekend, Rachel was so thoughtful about how she took our photos and such a blast to be around! When we started taking couples photos, my now husband said “Wow, I’m actually having fun!” She took so much thought into how she set up shots, or posed us or gave directions and we both appreciated the art and care that went into everything. Now when we take photos, we think - “what would Rachel do?!”

She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and we had a blast. As a bride, I worried a lot about how I would look in photos. But taking photos with Rachel, I felt like a model and had so much fun with her, her second shooter Haley and her husband who helped for the day.

She captured our love, our families and the fun of our wedding perfectly! If you’re looking for a photographer, look no further because Rachel is the best choice you could make!

As a person and through her photos. Rachel was simultaneously a calming presence and the ultimate hype girl on our wedding day. My HUSBAND and I are quite camera shy, but you'd never know looking at our photos. Rachel was able to help us with posing and give us the confidence to have fun and be ourselves. Our guests and family were so impressed with her efficiency and willingness to go above and beyond.

She was everywhere at one time and captured everything we wanted! Amazing!!

Rachel is an amazing photographer and she captured so many beautiful moments during our engagement session and during our wedding. Rachel is incredibly talented and so easy to work with.

When choosing a wedding photographer we not only wanted to make sure that we chose someone who was talented, but because we knew that we would be spending the entire day with our photographer, we wanted to make sure that we chose someone we would enjoy spending the say with. Rachel easily checked both of these boxes. We love how our photos came out, and we have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful our engagement and wedding photos are from family and friends. Rachel is very kind, easygoing, and laidback. She helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and made sure that we were having a great time on our wedding day.

Rachel captured portraits and candid moments from our wedding that are bright, beautiful, and truly encapsulate how special our day was. She was also able our sneak peaks and wedding gallery to us very quickly, and we have enjoyed looking through our photos and sharing them with our wedding guests.

Rachel was one of the very few photographers in my area that was willing to shoot for a few hours at my microwedding with a reasonable price! I was pleased with her website and how clearly everything was laid out. I adored her photography style with the bright vibrant colors, which is exactly what we received. I can testify that Rachel is easy going and made me and my husband super comfortable during our engagement shoot and wedding! It was overall a wonderful experience. I can’t wait to see the final product from our wedding, because are sneak peaks are 🔥!!

Working with Rachel for our wedding was an absolute DREAM! She took so many beautiful photos that were bright, beautiful, and captured the magical essence of our big day. Even before the big day, she was great -- she answered all of my (many) questions, took into account our priorities for photos (for example combination/s of people, the background, the style of photos) and made a scheudle to make sure we had ample opportunity to take bridal portraits inside and outside (hello natural light!!) at our venue. She makes you feel so at ease and comfortable when taking photos and knows exactly which poses to do and where to look exactly for the extra glimmer of light/beauty in the photos and it shows!! I can't say enough great things about Rachel & her beautiful work!!!

Also as a side note, I was also so impressed that she worked 2 weddings in a weekend (including our wedding) and was able to get us *SNEAK PEEK* photos within a couple of days!!!
