Bright & Timeless Wedding Photography for the Sincere and Kind-Hearted Couple.

Yay! You're engaged! Almost as soon as the ring slid onto your finger, you may have felt overwhelmed by a tsunami of questions: "When are you getting married? Where are you getting married? Who are your bridesmaids? What colors are you going to use? Are you going to have this type of ceremony? Who are you going to choose for your photographer?" The list goes on. Breathe. No, I am serious. Take a deep breath and smile. You're in good hands now!

The Details

“Rachel has an energy that makes taking pictures easy... She offers great planning tips leading up to the wedding and kept everything on schedule that day... We couldn't be happier with how our pictures turned out!”

EVERY MOMENT.

It’s the moments, the emotion, and the details that are important on your wedding day – and it’s my job, my privilege, to capture them all.

I've had the privilege of photographing weddings for nearly a decade, but I view myself as so much more than just a photographer. I get to document one of the most, if not the most, important day of two people's lives.

On your wedding day I will not only capture moments between the two of you that you'll cherish forever, but I'll also capture the moments you didn't see. The quiet moments before the ceremony, the entire event through the eyes of your guests, and of course the crazy dancing toward the end of the night.

These moments are what truly happened at your wedding, and they'll be created by the details and choices you selected to make your day impeccably "you". My goal with my photographs is to capture those moments, freeze them in time, and give them back to you to cherish for the rest of your lives.

My Process

Every wedding is unique, but there are certain milestones and processes we'll need to go through before your big day gets here. Learn more below!

INSIDE

INQUIRY

If you like what you see and think I'd be a great fit to photograph your wedding, you can inquire about your date using my contact form. Shelby Street couples invest an average of 6000 to 7000.

Virtual Call

Let's get to know each other! I'd love to hear about your love story, the vision for your wedding day, and what's most important to you when hiring a photographer.

Booking

Hooray! You'll be officially welcomed into the Shelby Street Couples family. Time to pop that champagne and celebrate another milestone in your wedding planning process!

Engagement Session

Engagement sessions are a super important part of my process! It's an opportunity for the two of you to get comfortable taking photos in a low-stress environment BEFORE we take photos on your wedding day. This will allow you to feel less stress and be more present on the big day – which lets me capture more candid and emotional moments.

Timeline Talk

We'll collaborate on a custom wedding day timeline that will ensure everything from a photography standpoint runs smoothly. This is where my expertise comes in! I know how much padding to leave around certain events, and what time the lighting is best for portraits at your venue!

Your Wedding Day

The day is finally here! I'll be there for you every step of the way, making sure you're comfortable and taken care of – all while documenting the best day of your life. I'll upload a sneak peek for your viewing pleasure shortly after, ensuring you don't go too long without seeing some of your epic photographs!

Gallery Delivery

You can expect to see your full, high-resolution, downloadable gallery of images 6 weeks after the big day. These images are hand edited with love and attention to every small detail to ensure you can cherish them forever.

Beyond

It's not over! Once a Shelby Street Couple, you're always a Shelby Street Couple. Hiring me to photograph your wedding means you're included into my second family, and that you'll have a lifetime of reliving your best day through your photos.
