“Working with Rachel was an absolute pleasure. I fell in love with her work that I saw online and booked her for our pre-wedding photoshoot and wedding in France. Living in the states and finding a photographer for our elopement in another country was a little intimidating, but Rachel made it seamless. She was very easy to communicate with, she’s friendly, personable, and professional. I felt like when we finally did meet, we already knew each other. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We are so happy with how our photos turned out. She captured our day beautifully and we can’t thank her enough for that. I would highly recommend Rachel.”

PROPOSALS

I believe that your wedding photos can be both timeless and cool. I shoot intuitively and produce vibes-based, candid images filled with movement and emotion, as well as elevated, effortlessly editorial portraits that you and your family will love. I am the unicorn that thrives doing both.

I also believe that with a luxury service, you should be able to 100% trust what you’re getting. No nasty surprises and no disappointments. My clients don’t have to choose between editorial, documentary or classic, I deliver beautifully curated galleries, co-created with my couples following your energy and expertly tailored to your personal taste.

hi! I'm rachel. Whether you’re more documentary or editorial, you (and your vibe) lead the way.

my approach

And you should feel good getting your photos taken. I take a collaborative and highly intuitive approach working alongside my clients to provide a photography experience & wedding gallery that is perfectly tailored to you (with a few artistic gems sprinkled in throughout!).

Your energy on the day guides how I shoot. If you and your guests are super chill and want a calm space in the morning, I’ll just candidly capture the last touches of makeup and getting dressed, keeping direction to a minimum. If you’re super expressive and outgoing then I will absolutely lean into that! I’ll put on some music and have them sing or dance with your friends!
