THERESE, MOTHER OF THE BRIDE
Our day (I know... My kid's day) was as close to perfect as you can get and right there to capture it all was Rachael! The energy she brought. The way she pulled out their personalities. How she knew exactly what to do without prompts. How she worked with others. The way she managed the crowd. I just don't know how she did it and I can't tell you how thankful we are to have had her on the big day!

With all of the amazing Nashville photographers I know it may feel overwhelming. I was in the same boat until I decided to book with Rachael. My husband and I had Rachael take our engagement photos, our wedding photos, maternity photos AND newborn photos. Rachael is so relatable and makes you feel so comfortable. We have her photos printed all over our house. I could not recommend her any more.
Alongside your digital images — available to you via a custom online portal — my clients work alongside me to carefully select heirloom keepsakes to last generations to come. From albums to prints, our goal is for your images to be passed down, and last a lifetime.
Working with a limited number of clients a year allows for a personal and approachable experience. I believe in getting to know my clients on a personal level, to ensure on your wedding day we feel like friends documenting your dream day.
Your wedding weekend is custom tailored — so is our photography experience. We don't have packages for you to choose from, but rather, we get to know you and your need first. Then, based on what you share with us, we craft a unique and custom proposal for you to review. Most clients investments average $8,000-10,000 for their wedding day.

You get a stylist, therapist, and coordinator! Rachael helped me decide on outfits for our engagement shoot, navigate postponing a wedding during a pandemic, helping to create our day of time like and countless things in between. I couldn’t be more thankful to have her during the wedding process- not to mention our STUNNING photos!
