Friendly and skilled true to life photographer

I cannot recommend Rachel enough. After spending a significant amount of time identifying what style of photography we preferred, Rachel’s photography came out well ahead of everyone else’s. Working with her was just as exceptional. Throughout the process, Rachel provided guidance and was a valuable resource given her knowledge as someone who has participated in many weddings.

Our engagement shoot was the first proof that we had definitely chosen right. While we got lucky on the timing of the shoot (we nailed peak cherry blossom bloom), she truly transformed an average city park into an amazing setting. She was easy to get along with and took the stress out of the photoshoot process. She guided us through the park and through different poses seamlessly. When we got the photos back, far quicker than expected, we, and our families, were blown away by them. There was fantastic range too, from romantic to moody to playful.

On the wedding day, she kept us on task while blending into the background. She made sure we kept moving through our shot list and captured everything, but during the formalities I forgot she was even there. We worked with a videographer she was not familiar with, but they collaborated effectively sharing shot ideas with each other without stepping on the other’s toes. Rachel and her second photographer did an excellent job of catching the little moments that we wanted to see but weren’t always present for. As with the engagement shoot, the final results were amazing. We can’t stop looking at all of them, from the funny candids to formal shots that make us feel like we could be on the cover of a magazine!

Best photographer out there 100%

We are absolutely OBSESSED with our wedding photos! Rachel and her second shooter Susan went above and beyond to capture every detail of our wedding day. Her work is absolutely beautiful and you can tell how much she puts her heart and soul into every one of her shoots. Rachel also keeps us laughing during the whole photo shoot (and the included engagement photo shoot), keeps the flow of the wedding going, remembers every photo that you want on the day and makes sure she gets it, comes up with amazing ideas (like how to get the best group shot of all of our guests at our wedding) and pumps you up (even if it starts to rain on your wedding day). We are so excited to put up all of her photos on every inch of our house soon 😂! Thank you Rachel for capturing our love on our favorite day!

The best decision we made!

Rachel is such a talented photographer! My now-husband and I are so glad we hired Rachel to capture our wedding day. While most couples decided to postpone their nuptials we decided to move forward with our wedding in October 2020. Rachel was so flexible throughout the process which made planning a wedding during the pandemic a lot easier. So far, Rachel captured significant milestones in our lives: engagement (2019), wedding (2020), and maternity/newborn (2021) and we absolutely love each and every moment!

Brides, if you need a photographer, please do not hesitate! Rachel is worth every penny - I PROMISE!!

Rachel was a phenomenal photographer for our wedding! She had great ideas and a creative eye throughout the entire process. She was flexible, professional yet personable, and willing to go above and beyond! You can see immediately that she loves what she does and her talent truly shines through with every photograph she takes. She made sure to get all the shots that were important to us, but also added her own ideas and all of our photos are beautiful! I am so glad we had Rachel as our photographer and will most definitely be recommending her to anyone with photography needs as well as calling her again in the future for upcoming family photos!!

Rachel will go above and beyond to capture a shot. She did my engagement photos and wedding and I couldn’t be happier with both sessions. There was a blizzard the day of my wedding and she was above ankle deep in snow capturing our day, never complaining a single minute of the crazy weather but rather embracing it. Probably the only vendor that wasn’t late either due to the weather conditions! I couldn’t be happier with the results of my foliage engagement or wedding blizzard pictures. I can’t recommend Rachel enough. Impeccable value and willing to do anything!

There is no one else I would trust than Rachel to take photos. She has done my engagement photos (twice, for different seasons) and captured my wedding. Her work speaks for itself. I constantly admire the photos she has taken and I will treasure them for a lifetime. She captures the most beautiful moments in a person's life and I will be forever grateful. She is kind, professional, and fun to be around, she made everyone in my bridal party comfortable in front of the camera. Rachel is someone I will recommend to anyone needing professional photography!
