Hey there!
I’m Rachel, a passionate photographer specializing in destination weddings, adventure elopements, and micro weddings. My heart beats for capturing love stories in the most breathtaking and unique locations, from the majestic peaks of national parks to hidden gems off the beaten path.
I embrace a documentary style, focusing on candid moments that tell the true story of your special day. With a keen eye for detail and a love for the great outdoors, I strive to create timeless images that reflect the beauty of your special moments and the stunning landscapes that surround them. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony on a mountain top or a cozy celebration in your back yard, I’m here to document your journey with authenticity and artistry.
As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I welcome all clients with open arms. Love is love, and I’m dedicated to capturing the unique essence of every couple’s story.
Having eloped in the Nevada desert myself, I understand the complexities of planning a non-traditional wedding. I’m here to help you navigate those challenges and ensure your day is as magical and stress-free as possible.
Let’s embark on this adventure together and create memories that will last a lifetime!
MEET Rachel
Hi I'm Rachel!
behind the lens
I capture the quiet, unseen moments as well as the unique and wonderfully celebrated ones. I ensure your invitation suite, the artistry of your floral arrangements, and the personal touches that reflect your love story are all documented, while also catching those intimate, candid moments and genuine emotions of the day that aren't posed.
Inspired by the natural world and the genuine connections between people.
You deserve someone who will celebrate you.
Go outside. Get married.
I believe in showing love, dignity, respect, and kindness to all. As a queer photographer, I am passionate about providing a comfortable and welcoming space for everyone.
My partner & I were engaged on a mountaintop in North Carolina, & celebrated our marriage in the Valley of Fire, in the Nevada desert. Having eloped myself, I love the uniqueness of non-traditional weddings!
Wherever you want to go- let's make it happen!
