    Incredible Experience! Definitely Recommend!

    My wife and I had the privilege of working with Rachel for our wedding earlier this month! We had looked into multiple photographers when setting up our wedding and are so happy we found Rachel. She was truly a pleasure to work with! We appreciated her attention to detail and responsiveness and care for our wedding. We are so thankful for everything she did to help capture all of the special moments of our day. My wife and I along with our family and friends were blown away at the level of service, professionalism, and creativity she provided. We definitely recommend Rachel to any and everyone looking for a professional photographer!!

    Excellent photographer!

    Rachel was our wedding photographer in October 2023. She was easy to work with leading up to the wedding and the day-of. During our pre-wedding discussions, she took the time to learn what was important to us (and what wasn't), and we could tell on the wedding day that she had really listened to us and taken everything into consideration. She is extremely professional - she knows how to get the shots that you want! She was able to give us direction while still not making everything feel super posed and staged. She got great shots during the ceremony and reception, and she made sure to check before she left for the night to ensure she had gotten all of our "must-have" photos. I think she even stayed a bit later than she had planned. But obviously, the key factor for any photographer is the photos - our wedding photos came out amazing. We got SO MANY photos, and somehow, they're all good! The coloring, staging, everything was absolutely perfect. We are still working with Rachel to order photo albums and prints - so far, she has been as easy to work with for this part of the process as pre-wedding! I highly recommend her.

    Lovely to work with

    Rachel was timely in her communications and generally fun to work with. She kept me calm and made sure her time was used effectively. The pictures turned out great and had so many options. I would definitely recommend her!

    Wedding Photographer

    Rachel was amazing from our engagement photoshoot to our wedding and reception. She is creative, very fun to be around and all around talent in her field. Great communication, responsiveness, and professionalism. We loved her energy and just beautiful photos! Love the full wedding package and can't wait to create the wedding album. She knows the local DMV area and does all sorts of shots. Loved working with her and hope to soon in the future! Thank you for capturing our memories that will last a lifetime.

    Hire Rachel right now!

    Rachel was a fabulous photographer for our wedding. From the very start, she showed how knowledgeable, flexible, and easy to work with she is. We did our engagement photos with her first, which turned out great. And on wedding day, she ran the show. She was able to herd our big, crazy families and the wedding party to get together for wonderful shots. Plus she captured some amazing candid moments on the dance floor. I couldn’t recommend her more!

    Our photos are lovely.

    We did our photos at the ceremony venue and then at a different venue on the way to dinner. She helped secure the second site and our pictures at both locations are stunning. Then, when she had the party months later, all our pictures really capture people having fun. She also made sure to get shots of all the little details that blur together such as the flowers, placecards, and entry set up. Several people have commented on how nice we look in our photos and how we have a good mix of posed and candid.

    Amazing experience!!!

    1. She did a wonderful job and was everywhere even though she wore a brace.
    2. People told us they were doing something and wished the photographer was capturing it. They would turn around and see that she was. Very impressed.

    Rachel was such a pleasure to work with! Her photos from our wedding came back GORGEOUS as she captured our entire day perfectly. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable when taking our photos, and she has such a kind and genuine personality. Thank you for everything, Rachel.

    Seasoned professional and great eye for vibrant lifestyle photos

    Rachel from RMN Photography was outstanding. We already were familiar with her work since she'd done a bunch of our friends' weddings and family shoots, so we knew we liked her style.
    She met with us via zoom to help us plan, and had us fill out a form with a list of types of photos that we could opt in or out on. We really needed this because we weren't really sure what we wanted. She asked all the right questions ahead of time so on the day of, she was able to make decisions in the moment when things went a little off schedule. She was able to manage the guests trying to take a bunch of pics with their phones and keep us on track. Rachel found gorgeous spaces to take photos that we hadn't even thought of, including a beautiful graffiti wall near our venue. The pictures are so vibrant, and she captured the emotion of the day with so much detail. Rachel's work is excellent. The only problem is how to decide on 200 photos for an album when you have 2000 good ones!

    Wonderful to work with!

    Rachel was wonderful to work with. Due to Covid, we had to reschedule 2 times and Rachel was very understanding. She is very professional and was always immediately responsive to any questions we had. On the day of the wedding she was very organized and considerate of the time spent outside since it turned out to be a very chilly day and during the reception she was always at the right place to capture the perfect moment.

    Great quality and service!

    Rachel did a fantastic job photographing our wedding. We got a huge amount of high-quality photos in a timely fashion, and she did a great job working with family members during the always-tricky family photograph portion of the day. Highly recommended.

    Absolutely Wonderful!

    Rachel is absolutely wonderful - she's an amazing combination of flexibility, creativity, skill, intuition and practicality. She helped us understand the possibilities along with the logistics of each option so we could make informed decisions that gave us the exact pictures and experience we wanted. We'd use her again in a moment and recommend her unhesitatingly!!

    Quality, Affordable, Fantastic

    I found Rachel through a referral from a friend who also had used her as her wedding photographer. Rachel did such an AMAZING job capturing the essence of our day!! Not only were the photos beautiful, but her warm and friendly manner immediately put me at ease. Rachel was flexible too - it was unclear whether my husband was going to be able to travel to the United States due to Covid, and she was willing to work with us and allow us to push the date back if we needed to without losing our deposit (such a relief). She’s also way more affordable than others which was perfect for our small gathering. Highly recommend - I will definitely call on her again in the future to capture other special moments that come along!

    Amazing Photographer & Experience

    Rachel was amazing through every part of the wedding process. We had booked Rachel during COVID and ‘interviewed’ her over the phone. During that call we knew we had to book Rachel. Just from that short conversation she sounded like the perfect fit for us and our crowd. Rachel was flexible and supportive during it all. We decided to add an extra hour to be able to capture getting ready pictures and have Rachel til the very end of the night. She captured the night perfectly. She is the exact energy you need for the day. Our guests are still raving about how great Rachel was. We highly recommend RMN Photography.

    Fantastic Wedding Photographer!

    RMN Photography/Rachel Naft is a gem of a wedding photographer! First Rachel has an easy-going, fun and calm presence that is so welcomed on the craziness of the wedding day. She is very organized and was excellent in helping us narrow/condense our lists of photos to make for a manageable schedule that would allow for us to also enjoy some of our day. She is a very hard worker, doing whatever it takes to get a good shot. We had multiple outdoor photo locations on a very warm sultry August day but nothing stopped her from getting fantastic shots. Many of our guests commented on how hard she worked and how she was also moving around to position herself to take a great shot yet never being intrusive. She was also very gracious with guests, allowing them moments to take photos too. Most of all however, the photos are absolutely fantastic! We have so many incredible and beautiful photos that feels impossible to choose the ones we like the most. She was excellent in all locations (church, outdoors, reception venue) and we have both amazing posed photos and wonderful candid shots too. Would highly recommend Rachel Naft/RMN Photography!

    Great Wedding Experience

    We enjoyed working with Rachel and highly recommend her for your wedding photography needs. Rachel was a pleasure to engage with from the initial consultation through multiple COVID reschedules, even providing a calming influence during the last-minute stress of the wedding day. As others have noted, her pricing is quite reasonable and we've received many compliments on the quality of the photos.

    Rust Manor Wedding.- June, 2021

    Our wedding was postponed three times last year due to COVID-19 and the capacity restrictions put into place by the Governor of Virginia. Rachel was so supportive and helpful in working with us to navigate the ever changing dates. Her professionalism and her work were outstanding on our wedding day. Her photos beautifully captured every detail of the wedding. From beginning to end, our experience working with Rachel was wonderful. She was very responsive to our many questions and concerns and always answered us within 24 hours. She made the process of working together very easy and it felt like a true collaborative. On our wedding day, Rachel deftly navigated the family dynamics and moved swiftly through the portrait sessions and knew when to blend into the background and when to assert herself to get the best pictures. The quality of the finished photos is exquisite and exceeded our expectations. If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-around, look no further.

    Thank you Rachel for beautifully capturing the most Important day of our lives. We will treasure the photos forever.

    The best photographer in the northern VA area!!!

    Rachel was beyond amazing to work with. She shot both our engagement and wedding photos and did stellar work. Our guests are still commenting on how good our photos turned out. Rachel was always extremely responsive and professional answering all my questions. I could not speak more highly about Rachel and her work. If you are looking for a photographer that does excellent work, look no further than Rachel. You will not be disappointed!

    Amazing Photos and Wonderful Photographer to work with

    Rachel Naft was wonderful to work with!!She took absolutely amazing pictures. She is so easy to work with and really helped my husband and I really enjoy our engagement photo shoot and our wedding day photos. She was so supportive, flexible and responsive throughout the whole planning process. Which was so nice and really helped ease any stress when it came to the photos. Our venue closed and we had to plan the whole wedding over, less than 45 days out. We found a new venue and Rachel helped us figure out where to do pictures before and after with the family. We even had pictures with our two dogs. She caught all the little things around the reception that I didn't even think to ask about but I'm so grateful she captured them. And she took ab

    Incredible

    We hired Rachel pretty last minute, and she was fantastic! Her photos were intimate, and she knew exactly how to capture the moment. She was warm, funny, and had a great knack for getting our dog to focus on the camera for photos. We wish we had more events to photograph so we could hire her again!

    Amazing Experience - Beautiful Photos, Easy to Work With Professional

    My husband and I had an outdoor wedding in DC in February and planned it all in one month. From the moment I started speaking with Rachel she was thoughtful, professional, and engaging. She listened to everything we wanted and made some excellent recommendations for photo locations. She was on-time, had a patient and positive attitude the entire time she worked with us, and our photos turned out STUNNING! Her ability to observe and work with different lighting was very impressive and made our photos so much better than I had hoped for. I would highly recommend hiring Rachel for any photography needs - you will get a talented, professional, funny photographer and some amazing photos!

    Amazing Photographer!!

    Rachel was so fun and easy to work with!! We knew from our initial meeting and examples of her work that she would be perfect for our rock and roll wedding. All of the pictures she took were completely amazing and exactly how we wanted them. There are so many great in the moment shots and we are so excited to decorate our new home with the pictures!
