Capturing Life’s Organic, Intimate & Joyful Moments

Emotional authenticity is the hallmark of my work. Preserving the intimacy of each moment is extremely important to me. I document things as they truly happened, capturing the in-betweens and the love that was shared.

Weddings on digital & film

Hi, I’m Rachel. I’m grateful you’re here. It’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of documenting your story. I am a visual storyteller. I put my heart and soul into every photograph I create.

Photography is my love and documenting love stories is my passion. I feel so inspired by light and natural elements, especially when capturing love in the beauty of it. I understand the emotions of a wedding day and what matters most. I will always prioritize moments for you to connect with your partner and loved ones.

An Experience Built On Trust & Comfort

Most couples don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera, at least not right away.

Comfort is built upon mutual trust and it is an honor to be entrusted with documenting your love story. I will always aim to create an environment where you feel at ease and can be yourself. As your photographer, I will encourage you to focus on slowing down, taking it in, and connecting with your partner. This allows me to capture organic and raw moments that are true to who you are as a couple. My favorite photos from a gallery are uncurated moments that capture the essence of your partnership and unwavering love for one another.

Storytelling at its finest.

Producing images that you keep coming back to, over and over.

Testimonials

“She followed our vision beautifully and created photos that are works of art.”

Rachel was extremely professional and thoughtful about capturing our special day. We were lucky to have Rachel as our wedding photographer. We had a vision to combine both beautiful traditional photography with something more fun, dynamic, and done in a documentary style. She followed our vision board beautifully. Not only that, we needed a photographer who would be able to capture our low-light (mostly just candlelit) church ceremony. She not only managed to do this, but also created photos that are works of art. Forever grateful to Rachel and her second photographer who was wonderful as well!

K&Y

“We absolutely cannot recommend Rachel enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond.”

Not only did she capture our wedding day beautifully, but she also provided invaluable vendor recommendations that made planning so much easier. Her expertise in the wedding space was evident every step of the way, and it truly helped us feel confident in our choices. On the day itself, Rachel was not just professional, but incredibly friendly and warm, making us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. When we saw our wedding photos we were blown away. Every image was stunning, and they perfectly captured the emotion and beauty of the day. If you’re looking for someone who not only delivers gorgeous photos but also helps you feel at ease throughout the process, Rachel is the one. We love our photos and will treasure them forever!

D&C

“Creative. Intuitive. Thoughtful. Rachel embodies true talent as a photographer - and so much more.”

My husband and I got married at Yokayo Ranch in Ukiah, CA, and we wanted our vision - classic garden meets California party - to shine through the lens. Let’s just say, Rachel understood the assignment. She not only captured our vision but brought a creative perspective that exceeded our expectations. Rachel caught the little moments you dream of - the magical details, the spontaneous laughs, the quiet glances, and the heartfelt emotions. Her editing style preserves the authenticity of the day, adding depth and vibrancy to our gallery. We highly recommend Rachel to any couple looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also kind, creative, and easy to work with. Trust us, that goes a long way.

K&R

“Her way of interaction allowed us to always feel comfortable in front of her camera.”

We had the opportunity to have Rachel as our photographer in San Francisco. She is such a lovely person always taking care of her clients and their needs. She instructed us when it was necessary but also gave us the freedom to authentically act the way we usually do. We are super thankful for everything she did for us and all the unforettable and amazing memories she captured for us.

S&A

“Words will never perfectly describe the magic of Rachel — but her photographs sure do.”

There is a story behind each one; a sweet, joyful memory that you will forever cherish. Rachel was more than our elopement photographer. She met with us multiple times, curated a perfect timeline with us, and never let one detail be missed. From locations, timing of the sun to get magical lighting, vendors, and even parking suggestions, Rachel took the stress of traveling to a new state from us and enabled us to truly focus on our love for our special wedding day. Rachel is so intentional and has a passion for promptly, but carefully curating the perfect gallery. We recommend Rachel to any couple seeking someone they can trust and that has a gift of capturing those special, in-between moments!

R&J

“I can’t say enough about our five-star experience with Rachel from start to finish.”

I am a Bay Area native and my husband and I traveled from our home in LA to SF to marry at city hall. We knew from the start that the photography was very important to us because of the limited time and setting so it was critical that we not only found someone who was familiar with city hall, but landmarks to serve as one-off site shoot, and Rachel delivered on all fronts. We were so impressed with her thorough communication as well as the thought and care behind it. We can’t thank her enough for bringing our photography vision to life and feel almost as if we are letting a well kept secret (her talent) out!
