Be it your wedding day, your elopement, or your photoshoot – my approach is exactly the same.
It’s all about you. It’s your moment, your big day.
So, you get to call the shots. Yes, ALL of them.
So, I say do what makes your heart sing and brings a carefree smile to your face.
Not your neighbour Joe’s, nor your Aunt Sally’s. No. Today is all about you two.
And as your trusty sidekick (and brazenly talented photographer), I’ll be there every step of the way to support you and help turn your beautiful dreams into reality. I’m here for you both to capture your beautiful love story. And tell it the way you want it to be told.
And we’re gonna have so much fun while we’re at it, too!
Sure, you’ll be comfortable in front of the camera. But we’ll cry together, laugh together, and make your already magical day even more magical (like that’s even possible). I’ll help you create a safe space to be truly yourselves. And I’ll help you free your souls to have fun, laugh, and love without filters.
Just remember, this is YOUR fairytale – an exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime kind of experience crafted just for you. So live it up on the happiest day of your life, and don’t let anyone rain on your parade!
The vibes I bring…
After all, you two are unique. Your love is special. And your story is rare and truly one-of-a-kind.
And I want to give you an unparalleled experience that goes beyond just taking stunning photos.
So, I’ll actually take the time to get to know you, understand your vision, and tailor my approach to ensure that every photo is a true reflection of who you are as a couple.
On your big day, I’ll stop at nothing to make you feel comfortable & confident in front of the camera. I’ll put your minds at ease and create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that liberates your souls and embraces everything that makes you, You.
And this kind of natural comfort will lead to genuine expressions and candid moments, captured for eternity in my photographs… beautiful photos – your memories, frozen in time – that are visually stunning, emotionally captivating, and yours to keep forever.
…AND WHEN IT COMES TO CAPTURING YOUR MOST PRECIOUS MOMENTS, YOU DESERVE NOTHING BUT THE BEST.
Hi, I'm Rach
Your Elopement & Wedding Photographer
Being part of your beautiful love story, giving you the experience of your lives, and experiencing your happiness & love – now that’s what makes photography more than just a job for me.
As I’m sure you’ve figured out by now: I’m a die-hard romantic. The Notebook is my favourite movie, I married my husband, Jared when I was 19, and I’ve never stopped believing in “Disney-style” true love.
Sure, the snapping pictures & creating art part is super fun (and I’m, like, real good at it). But it’s not what gets me up in the morning.
I’m a sucker for fur-babies, and I’m the proud momma of pup (Nala – a husky) myself. But I’ll love and embrace your dogs, horses, or any other furry family member you might have as my own.
So yes, you’ll get some seriously incredible photos too. But if you choose me as your photographer, you’re also getting a creative partner & new bestie with an unwavering dedication to making every moment count.
I’m Rach. And I’m ready to go all-in for you.
Where to begin? Rachael is absolutely amazing! she puts her heart and soul into all her work, and it shows.
Rach made my partner and I feel so comfortable being in front of the camera, the whole sessions flowed so nicely and the images came out even better then I imagined, they are so real and beautiful!
When I was looking for a photographer I was looking for someone I could use time and time again to capture our special milestones and I have 100% found that in Rach. I cannot recommend her enough.
Keely & Doug
“Everyone and everything just made us feel like we had no choice.” Said one of my brides. And it broke my heart. Because deep down, I knew it was true.
Everywhere you look, you see big & beautiful weddings. Romantic movies, your Instagram feed – heck, even your friends & family are doing it!
So, the choice to elope can feel scary.
But that’s why I’m here: to tell you that if you want to elope, then don’t let anyone hold you back.
Don’t get me wrong: if you want an all-out wedding then that’s awesome, and I’ll support you every step of the way.
But not gonna lie… I have a soft spot for elopements.
So you do you – and everyone else’s job is to support your decision. After all, this is your day and it only happens once. So go enjoy it. Embrace it. And love every second of it. – it will be gone before you know it.
And if you want to elope, I’ll help you have the time of your lives.
You’ll dance in the rain, sing out loud, climb the highest mountain to (barely) make the most epic sunset ever. You’ll laugh freely, love dearly, shed a few tears in each other's arms, and bring the fur babies because why the hell not.
But if you want a classic wedding, I can’t wait to help you make your fairytale dream come to life.
The point is, you’ll be yourselves. And you’ll love every moment of it.
And I promise to be right there with you, supporting and gently guiding you through the happiest day of your lives. So years from now, when you look back on your wedding day, you’ll have some photos as one of the few things you have to remember your day by.
Sure, I believe in elopements. But most importantly: I believe in you.
I believe in elopements
I also love our planet. It’s our home, and we need to take care of it. So, all my products are environmentally friendly, and my business is sustainable at every level. And finally, I love connection. I like to find the awesomeness in every vendor & every client I’ve ever worked with.
This means that you can rest easy knowing that whatever it is you need – I’ve got your back. I’ll help you get in touch with the right people – videographers, celebrants, or venue organisers – to help bring your vision to life.
But it also means that if you let me into one of the most profound and intimate moments of your lives – the day you get married – you’re looking at a potential new life long friend who feels honoured to have shared that bond with you.
AND NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE…
I believe that love is love. And love is unique – Love is beautiful.
So – without skipping a beat – I’d be honoured to document your love story no matter who you are, or who you’re in love with.
