Hi, I'm Rachel. I'm a mom of 5 kids and I am passionate about documenting their lives.

My oldest two sons were officially diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder in January of 2004--when they were 4 and 2, respectively--and it began to make sense why I could never get the studio settings of big chain photographers to work for them. We went for a long time without many really GOOD pictures of the boys, and as our family grew, I became more and more restless about this. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and learn photography! Once I had the skills to photograph my own sons in a way that they found comfortable, without harsh flashes or lots handling and posing, I wanted to share it with other families who faced the same challenges creating keepsakes of their family's life.

Along the way, I've discovered I just love photographing everyone! So what started as a very focused journey in chronicling my own family's story has become a passion and an artistic outlet.

If you think I am the right fit for your family, wedding, or child's photography, contact me at rachelrenee1@gmail.com

My SUPER CUTE relatives.

Yeah, ok, there are a BILLION pics, but Cynthia and her family are SO cute. I seriously could not pick just a couple. The kids were hilarious. And the setting was awesome. It was super cloudy and it was threatening rain the whole time. But we got like an hour and a half or so where we were able to just shoot away and get the amazing clouds and sky, and then right as we got to the parking lot, it let loose! The rain just poured down in buckets.



You'd think that meant we were safe, right? Well, no. I lost my keys in the field. (Yep, in alllll that tall grass!) Crystal was awesome and walked back down into the field with me in the pouring rain and wouldn't you know it? I DID find them. So we were wet, but I still have my keys. And honestly, for dramatic settings like this, I would risk a little rain again in an heartbeat.
