“Rachel is so great! My partner and I don’t like having photos taken much, but really want pictures of our family taken because kids change and grow so fast. It was a dilemma, until Rachel. She somehow captures great expressions in beautiful compositions without anyone ever needing to pose. Our two-year-old daughter hardly stops moving ever and yet Rachel has captured some stunning shots of her. I really have a hard time relaxing in front of a camera, but Rachel is really talented at giving some direction but also kind of disappearing so that you aren’t hyper aware of being photographed. It’s always a struggle to choose which photos to order bc I love them all. We highly recommend Rachel!”

“Rachel managed to capture some amazingly beautiful pictures of my family, this despite my three year old bringing equal parts grumpy and goofy to the session. Rachel is incredibly friendly, patient, professional, and talented! She documented some very sweet, tender moments...our coffee table book of her images is for sure one of my prized possessions. We'll definitely look forward to working with Rachel in the future as our family grows up!”

“This is the second time Rachel has taken pictures of our family. we are in LOVE with the photos: she is able to seamlessly come into our home and capture our daily lives with ease (with the understanding of tantrums and meltdowns like only a mother could). and amidst all the chaos, she manages to capture the most beautiful images. thank you so much.”

“We hired Rachel to document the homebirth of my son. She was the first to arrive and the minute she entered the room she brought with her a calm reassuring presence. His arrival was fast so I was concerned there wouldn’t be a ton of photos. Not only did we have a complete package of photos and an amazing video, the quality and emotion captured were second to none. We will always hold a special place in our hearts for Rachel and the intimate moment she captured in our lives. We highly recommend her for birth and beyond.”

“Rachel’s shots are simply magical! She made our photo shoot fun and painless, and had a great balance of getting poses/combos I wanted plus capturing candid moments that all turned out amazing! It was so hard to choose from all the amazing photos!”

“We hired Rachel for a family photo shoot after our second son was born and it was a wonderful experience. She managed to take amazing photos of both our boys, even our blur of a toddler who’s never still. She was calm, friendly, unflappable, great with kids and super helpful to me in the album making process. Definitely worth the investment!”

“I’ll start by saying what Rachel produced is absolutely magical, seriously. She is extremely passionate about what she does and it shows! Rachel served as my doula along with being the photographer/videographer and she pulled it off what appeared to be effortlessly. If it weren’t for her helping with counter pressure or asking if I needed food and water I wouldn’t have known she was there! I was super intentional about who I allowed in my birth space from the very beginning , and I am so happy I chose Rachel to be apart of mine. I highly recommend! Rachel, you went above and beyond for us on more than one occasion, thank you so much for everything. What you captured exceeded my expectations, I look forward to sharing these precious memories with my daughter. We’ll see you at the next one! ;)”

“I can't say enough good things about Rachel and the work that she does. Not only did she do a phenomenal job of documenting the birth of our daughter, as a trained doula she was an amazing support throughout my labor process. Having her there meant that my husband could focus on supporting me and relishing in the moment of delivery without worrying about taking photos. We will cherish the photo books (especially the board book for our baby) forever. Hire Rachel to photograph your birth; she is worth every penny and you will not regret the decision.”

“We've had Rachel do newborn photos for our three kids and two maternity shoots. We love her!! Even in the pandemic, she found a way to safely capture these amazing times for our family. Her photos are beautiful, and the photo sessions are fun and relaxed. She makes it super easy for harried new parents by coming to you. Highly recommended!!”

“Our recent experience with Rachel exceeded our expectations. We had a family session at our home with our newborn baby and Rachel made the session comfortable and natural which came through in the photos. The moments she was able to capture were absolutely beautiful. My wife and I are both usually very camera-shy but we were blown away by how much we loved our family photos. We've worked with other photographers in the past but Rachel was definitely the best. We will absolutely use Rachel again in the future.”

— JESSICA J. —

“Rachel did such an amazing job with our family photos. My kids are just about to be teens and not kids anymore. It's a really awkward time, and getting photos taken is one of those things that can be fun or a real drag. Rachel is so good at holding space for people and giving a part of herself in a way that absolutely comes through in the photos. I'm so happy we found her!”

— META S. —

“Rachel is an incredible photographer AND doula. She was absolutely instrumental in creating a positive, calm, supported birth space for me, my husband, and our baby. Her gentle and nurturing spirit was so so helpful; she was there when we needed her but expertly hung back when we needed space! Beyond that, her photos are gorgeous, honest, and authentic; they are such a great memory of such a huge moment in our lives. You will absolutely love having Rachel as a part of your birthing experience!”

— MEGAN F. —

“I reached out to Rachel somewhat last minute to do a maternity shoot in addition to newborn photos and she was extremely flexible and responsive - I’m so glad I did. She put us at ease when we are both normally camera shy and she has an absolute gift as evidenced by our amazing photos. I cried tears of joy when we first saw our newborn photos and still have so much love and appreciation for Rachel’s photos when I look at them (on my desk, on our walls, at the grandparents... we put them everywhere!). We cannot recommend her enough! My husband has already said if we have another baby and don’t live in Philly we will fly her to us for family photos... I think he is actually serious!”
