THE END.
Some of you may know from conversation with me previously, some of you may just now be hearing of this - I am quitting photography. Rest assured, current bookings are safe and I'm still BEYOND excited and overjoyed to be capturing your memories!! Starting now, I will no longer be booking new inquiries no matter how big or small.
You may still see me post old work and even some new work for awhile considering I do still have some weddings and engagements on my calendar for 2026 + 2027! I may even snag a spot at a super fun local styled shoot here and there, because let's face it, I can't put down my camera for good. It's still fun for me, still a great occasional creative outlet in this busy life routine of mine. I love photography and loved serving all of you over the years and am excited to continue to serve my remaining couples 🤍 As for photographers, please continue to keep me in mind for second shooting! If the stars align, I'd still be so excited to help you out.

I'm proud of what I built. It stings a little (or a lot) to be pressing the "post" button on this today. If you're a photographer (or any entrepreneur) while also being a mom, you can understand a portion of my struggle. Is this goodbye forever? I'd like to say, probably not. I cherish all of these years learning and growing and spending time with you, creating art, and doing something pretty cool. Whether client, creative, or business owner that I've came in contact with over the years, I'm grateful for you, I will miss you, and you are always in my heart.
Yours truly,
Rachel
