About

Thank you for taking the time to review my work, I hope you will find that I am the right photographer for you. I am an artist, I love exploring new ideas and sharing my passions and talents with others. I am NOT your common Photographer. I am a Wife, Mother, Sister, Aunt and before all of these I am a born again christian. I have had a love of photography for as long I can remember. My late grandfather, who has 6 children, 12 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren, was a advent photographer. There was never a time he was without the camera. I believe I got this talent of seeing things and knowing ways to capture our special moments from him. Most of my sessions are taken outside, on location (typically a park like setting) or indoors with plenty of windows. Natural light is the best way to capture the details of each person and place. Of course there are a few poses but mostly I like to capture the memories that last a lifetime as they are happening. I try to make sessions fun! Once the session has ended I still have a LOT to do. With photo editing, I take time to bring out the best in each photo taken. After all these will be with you for a lifetime to share and are YOUR precious memories! I would be honored to have the opportunity to capture those precious moments in your life. My hope is to be there for you as your family grows...little children, seniors in high school, weddings and the huge family portraits. Please be sure to keep an eye on my Facebook page as well to see any current specials that are going on. Thank you again, and I look forward to making your memories last a lifetime! Rachel Payne

We selected Rae Rae Photography for our daughter's Senior Pictures - We were extremely pleased with how professional Rachel was and the photo's turned out AMAZING! We opted for a "mini" session, but will definitely be scheduling for a full session in the near future for our daughter's graduation. Not only was Rachel wonderful to work with, her pricing was very reasonable for what we were looking for! We will definitely be contacting Rae Rae Photography in the future for family photos and more!

Rae Rae photography was the absolute best choice we could have made! The pictures turned out gorgeous and Rachel was like a photographic ninja she got shots that were so great! We loved our experience. The only thing we would have adjusted was having our list of pictures we wanted with her on the day. We both forgot it and forgot to get a few shots we wanted. No biggie we got a ton of great ones. Thank you again!

Not one to give reviews normally but we did not have a good experience with Rachel. She was very nice and all but that is it. When it came to poses for the wedding she wanted us to come up with everything and did not take charge getting everyone in order as I feel a professional should. Next it took over 3-4 months to get any pictures back from her. Was promised an album to be made for us when we decided to go with her. Here we are over a year later still have not received it and anytime we email or text her she ignores it and will not get back to us. Needless to say we will not be using her again. Again I hate bashing people and their work but I just would not suggest her as a wedding photographer.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
