FOR COUPLES WHO WANT DOCUMENTARY-STYLE PHOTOS THAT HELP THEM RELIVE THEIR DAY OVER AND OVER

You’re not looking for stiff, overly posed photos. You want to remember how it felt, the details you spent months carefully choosing, the moment your partner first laid eyes on you, and the in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening. That’s where I come in! My goal is to give you the freedom to be fully present, trusting that every moment is being captured as it unfolds.

    Keagan's senior pictures turned out fabulous! Rachel did a fantastic job capturing her personality! Personally, I love that each photo was offered in color and black + white. She did our family pictures too.

    Rachel was very easy to work with and the pictures she took were exceptional. We were very pleased and would certainly use her again.
