hey there, im rachel!
I'm the lady behind the lens and the passion behind the story. I like backpacking on the North Shore, dreaming up my next travel plans, and picking up a good book before I have time to finish the last one. I have two dogs that know all the commands but do whatever they want to on a regular basis, and they are my couch buddies for nights when I settle in with a glass of wine and an episode of Friends! I’m a foster parent and I’ve been riding that rollercoaster since December of 2020. My life is never boring and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Some more about me.
I am just as happy hiking on trails as I am potato-ing on a couch watching my go-to shows. I’m always down to enjoy a game night with my best friends and I have a small card collection ranging from themed sets like "Camping" or "Alice In Wonderland" to sets I've been gifted from friends from places like Aruba, Ireland, and Alberta. If you ever go anywhere fun, find a cool set to add to my growing collection! I’m big on building community and making people feel seen. It’s how I run my business and my life. Now it’s your turn to tell me all about you!
fun facts:
I’ve been to 9 countries and counting. The next places on my list are Scotland, Spain, and Australia, but I’d always go back to Costa Rica, Switzerland, and Ireland!
I got my foster care license in October of 2020 and my first placement in December. While I won’t share about the kids in my care, I’m always down to chat about foster care and the experience I have had! Got questions? Ask them!
I'm an Enneagram 6: I'm community-minded and passionate about the things I dedicate myself to. Do I sound crazy? You probably haven’t heard of enneagram. Look it up, friend!

“Rachel is so wonderful to work with. She’s relaxed and makes you feel comfortable being in front of the camera. Her approach is very go-with-the-flow, while still capturing professional-looking pictures as well as perfectly candid and lifestyle moments. Trust her with your images - you’ll be happy you did!”
