"the second I saw Rachel’s I was so excited and absolutely fell in love with her photos. She was very quick to respond! She did a quick call with me and my fiancé about what we were looking for and how the process worked. At the shoot Rachel was very kind and patient, she played music and made us as comfortable as possible! She gave us poses and prompts but also let us just hang out and captured who we are which was exactly what I wanted! She got our photos back to us pretty quick and they were gorgeous and more then I could have asked for! Her Gallery site was super easy to use and navigate, the whole thing was incredible and I would 100% recommend her to all shoots in OBX!"

"Jake and I are both introverts so we were a little nervous for the photo shoot. Rachel made us feel so comfortable and played songs by one of our musicians (Jack Johnson) on her mini speaker. We felt so natural to just be ourselves. The pictures came out beautifully. Rachel was able to capture every single moment of that morning perfectly. When we look at our pictures we are just amazed at how she was able to take photos that represent who we are as a couple and the love we share for one another. We will have our favorite photos from that day on display at our wedding in 2024. We cannot say enough great things about Rachel!!:

""I’m so glad I found Rachel to take photos of our engagement! She captured the emotion of the moment and the day perfectly. We were blown away with how well all the photos turned out, and how professional she was. We also did an engagement session with her at the National Gallery of Art. We were so impressed with her creativity and artistic vision, and it was so much fun! She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos turned out so great. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a super talented photographer!"
