Behind the Lens


Hi, I’m Rachel!


I’m a Northern California photographer who loves documenting genuine connection, whether it’s a wedding day, family session, engagement, maternity session, or one of life’s many milestones.


Since 2017, I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings and portrait sessions throughout Northern California, creating images that feel candid, natural, and true to the people in them.


My goal is simple: to help you feel comfortable, enjoy the experience, and walk away with photographs that reflect who you are—not just how you looked. I’ll guide you when needed, but I also know when to capture moments naturally as they unfold.


When video is part of your experience, my husband Mark joins me as our lead videographer! Together, we create a seamless photo and video experience so you can stay present while we document the moments you’ll want to remember for years to come.
