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

The family that smashes cake together...

I have a lot of kids. Five, actually. And yeah, I thought we had fun with their little birthday parties all. Sweet little snapshots of them smashing a cupcake in their highchair and all. But now? I want to go back and redo it all.

This family was SO cute. They ALL got into the cake smashing. It was just adorable. I laughed and laughed, and how many times does a photoshoot turn into one of those hilarious family memories? I truly wonder if this one will be that way, in the end. It was great.


We started off with some family photos.

And you'd think that was the end of the fun, wouldn't you?

Wrong!

This cake smash was not over until the last morsel of cake was SMASHED!
