I believe in timeless, heartfelt imagery that honors the depth of human connection

The Vision

I believe your wedding day deserves to be experienced fully, not performed for the camera. From the very beginning, my work has been rooted in creating an environment where you can slow down, breathe, and be present with the people you love most.
I document weddings with a calm, intuitive approach, blending natural light, gentle direction, and storytelling imagery so you can stay fully present while I preserve what matters most.

CAPTURING MOMENTS SINCE 2017

About rachel

a Cincinnati-based wedding photographer with a heart for honest moments, meaningful details, and love stories that don’t fit into a mold.

Your photographer is one of the few vendors who is with you throughout nearly every part of the day, their presence and energy matters. I create a wedding photography experience that is boldly sincere and gracefully authentic, grounded in calm guidance, thoughtful pacing, and genuine care for you and your people.

I want you to be able to remember your wedding day for it's quiet moments as much as it's big ones.

''We were super nervous, but she made us feel so at ease and comfortable and our pictures turned out beautiful.''

Rachel was wonderful to work with and I would recommend her for any and all photo needs! She did our wedding and engagement pictures and although my husband and I were super nervous, she made us feel so at ease and comfortable and our pictures turned out beautiful! Love Rachel and the work that she does, you can tell she takes pride in what she does

We were so lucky to have you there capturing our wedding day.

Thank you so much for everything you did on our wedding day! Zach and I were so lucky to have you capturing our moments. I can’t imagine the work it takes to be an awesome mom and kicking butt as a photographer, but you seem to be crushing both.

She makes you feel comfortable which was so important for us. Our wedding pictures are stunning and we are so grateful to be able to remember our big days with such beautiful snapshots.

At home, we live the same way I photograph: with intention, patience, and deep respect for connection. We believe the most meaningful moments aren’t the loudest or most polished — they’re the ones where everyone feels safe, seen, and fully present.

We value togetherness over busyness, conversation over distraction, and creating memories that feel honest and lasting.

Above all, we believe that the everyday moments shared meals, quiet mornings, laughter in between plans are what shape a life. These are the moments worth remembering, honoring, and holding close.

I thrift because I love the thrill of a good vintage find — the kind that feels like it was waiting just for me. I’m drawn to pieces with history, character, and charm, the ones that have already lived a little and still have so much life left in them.

I love the kind of evenings that invite you to slow down — a familiar sitcom playing in the background, a favorite movie you’ve seen a dozen times, or a cozy game that doesn’t ask much except your presence. These are the moments that soften the day and bring everyone a little closer.

For me, comfort media is about togetherness and ease. It’s laughter over shared jokes, quiet focus side by side, and the comfort of stories that feel like home. Whether it’s rewatching something nostalgic or getting lost in a gentle game, these small rituals create space to unwind and simply be.

Through the

You often hear, “Your wedding day will go by so fast” or “I only remember saying ‘I do.’”

My heart behind photographing weddings is to help you truly remember your day, not just the staged moments or the photoshoots, but the way it felt. The quiet glances, the laughter in between moments, the small pauses that let you breathe and be present with each other and your people.

With calm guidance, thoughtful pacing, and a focus on connection, I capture your day as it unfolds naturally, so your photos reflect not only how it looked, but how it felt - emotional, beautiful, and authentic to you.My role isn’t just photographer.
