So this is love

We couldn’t recommend Rachel enough. As the owner of a creative agency, I know first hand how rare it is to find talent who are so passionate about their art and so seemingly effortless good at it. Rachel’s passion and creativity means that you get truly authentic shots. She’s got her systems down pat! Rachel, thank you so much for being such a caring, fun and genuinely lovely and thoughtful photographer for our day. It was such a beautiful experience working with you. Thank you time a million!! Love Al + K

Couldn’t have asked for a more amazing photographer! Rachel has captured our engagement, wedding, maternity and soon new born session. The reason why we always go back to Rachel is because she has made it so easy and stress free. From teaching us how to pose and feel comfortable in front of the camera, answering all of my questions, and making sure I had nice outfits to wear! Its been so special to have all these moments captured by Rachel, and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else!

I cannot say enough about her creative talent, friendly demeanor, & fun energy. She made the photoshoot such a seamless & memorable experience. Her unique perspective & ability to bring out the best in the people she’s capturing is truly remarkable. The final photos were stunning & captured the essence of the occasion in the most beautiful way. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented, but also friendly, fun, & truly passionate about her craft.

Rachel is incredible! She is professional, friendly, great with little ones and has an eye for detail. Over the years we have had many photo sessions with her and she always makes you feel comfortable. She is a real talent and we’re incredibly lucky to have her here in Hawkes Bay.

Shona

Organising a New Zealand extended-family photo shoot from Australia, probably should have been a lot harder than it was - but Rachel was professional, friendly and made everything seem really easy!
On the day Rachel was down to earth and fitted in like one of the family. And the photos she produced are absolutely stunning - treasures!
I would have no reservations in recommending Rachel for any event requiring second-to-none photography!

Rachel is an amazing, artistic photographer. She is so friendly, professional and goes above and beyond for her clients. We were lucky enough to book Rachel for our wedding in 2021 and couldn’t recommend her more. Rachel made the whole experience of being photographed so great and put us totally at ease despite the wedding day nerves. The photos of our day are just the best & something we’ll treasure forever. 🙏 Thank you Rachel

Manda

I wanted to get maternity photos done by Rachel as I had been admiring her talent on Instagram for some time. Absolutely no regrets! She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and gets the most amazing shots, without even having to “pose”. Her eye for locations and shots is beautiful, and her editing - so perfect! I wish I had known about Rachel with my other pregnancies and wedding! Hawke’s Bay is very lucky!

Michaela

We were so nervous about having our first photo shoot as a newly engaged couple, but as soon as we met Rachel we instantly felt so comfortable. She made the shoot feel so natural and easy. We were absolutely over the moon with all the photos we got back, and couldn’t recommend Rachel more! The best in the bay ❤️

We have been lucky enough to have Rachel take photos of our family on two occasions, and we adore every photo she has taken for us. Rachel is so incredibly talented at capturing moments without it feeling forced or unnatural, and her friendly personality puts you completely at ease. We constantly get comments on her photos that we have on display. I don’t think you regret choosing to spend money on family photos as you blink and the kids have grown, and we will cherish these photos forever. I couldn’t recom

Kasey

Amazing, amazing, amazing!!! We have had the pleasure of Rachel capturing our engagement photos and our wedding day, and she was absolutely incredible. I had never stepped foot in front of the camera before and she made us feel so at ease and relaxed and the photos we received are incredible! Rachel is not only an amazing photographer, she is also a genuine, caring and hilarious person, which makes photoshoots that much more fun! Cannot recommend Rachel enough. She will always be our first call for photos
