KIND WORDS

- Erin & Packy

From the first conversation my husband and I had with her we knew this is who we wanted to capture our wedding day. She wanted to get to know us as individuals first, before even asking questions about our wedding day vision.

Rachael is a literal superstar!

KIND WORDS

- Gaby & Ben

Rachael made sure we were always comfortable since I mentioned I’m not used to being in front of a camera. We did an engagement shoot where we practiced a lot of poses. She also taught us how to do a dip and we got the perfect exit ceremony photo.

We’re so happy with how all the photos came out!
