EXPERIENCE & PRICING

"Where do I even start with Rachel? Everything was seamless with her. She is professional and organized while also being effortlessly calm, fun, and enthusiastic. It's so apparent that she loves what she does and equally loves the clients that she shoots for.”

Emily & Daniel

Why me and why here?

Just like you probably are, I’m completely in awe of the PNW and all it’s beauty. I moved to Portland, Oregon in 2013 to be near my sister, unaware of the love affair that was about to begin. I spend all of my free time exploring every waterfall, mountain top, and forest from here to Canada. Being outside makes me feel grounded and connected to something real. I would love nothing more than to share with this feeling with you while taking your photos.

Remembering forever

Photographs are what help us to remember people, places, and times that have passed. They inspire us to tell stories and re-live moments. Almost all of my memories are defined within photographs. Most of these memories, I would never have without the photos.

Rachel is absolutely wonderful!! We drove out to the gorge for some photos on a cold/windy day and she made it so much fun :) Both my fiancé and I are a little camera shy, so she was able to pose us and talk us through the process – which made it so effortless and enjoyable! Rachel is hilarious and so pleasant to be around. She even let us bring our little pup and snapped some precious photos of her! The turnaround time for photos was so quick and she even sent us some preview photos that day. I highly recommend Rachel and am so grateful we were able to work with her!

My fiance and I had our wedding planned for summer 2020 and Rachel was our photographer. We ended up postponing and changing plans due to the pandemic, an incredibly stressful and difficult time for us. Throughout all of that Rachel was absolutely amazing. She was flexible and worked with us as we made new plans and her communication was always excellent! Rachel was so laid back and down to earth that the whole thing felt really chill and relaxed. If I could give 6 stars I would, strongly recommend!

Rachel was our wedding photographer, and 100% the best decision we made in planning the wedding. We are completely ecstatic with how the photos turned out, and Rachel was a dream to work with from start to finish. She was also a great communicator, and in my case, was able to glean a whole lot about what I wanted from a whole bunch of me not being sure. If you want photos that really capture emotions, a photographer that will make you feel beautiful in your own skin (even if you hate taking photos), or a photographer to capture the essence of a perfect outdoor location, you should call Rachel.
