Many couples know that a big, traditional wedding is not right for them.
I photograph intimate weddings and precious elopements across Northern New Jersey and New York City for couples who want to celebrate their love in their own special way, have the best day ever, and create memories for life.

"Rachel was the best vendor (by far) that we chose for our wedding."
“Right at the start, Rachel was as kind and accommodating as she was professional and Aly and I couldn't have been happier to work with her. On our wedding day, she and her assistant were calm and composed and that's a big feat considering she had to wrangle with over 40 people throughout the day for different pictures we had requested across Princeton University's campus. Rachel met with us in person on numerous occasions and really walked us through the process in addition to being very thoughtful in her photographs and blog entries. The best part of it all was the product; our engagement and wedding photos are stunning and we will treasure them for years to come. Thank you Rachel for everything; it was a joy to have you as our wedding photographer!!”

"Rachel is one of our new favorite people! From first meeting her, to wrapping up our wedding shoot, she was fun, bubbly, professional and kind."
“My husband and I have never looked better than in front of Rachel's lens ;) She made us feel completely at ease during our engagement shoot, which was a great experience overall. It was wonderful "practice" leading up to our big day. She listened to all of our wants and needs ("keep it low key, include our dog Roxy, no frills, just us having fun") and captured our true essence as a couple: lots of laughs and love! We met again prior to our wedding to discuss the details of our small affair, and Rachel really helped us to get all of our ducks in a row as far as timing and the photos we wanted taken. I love each and every image so much!! Thanks for everything Rachel, you are lovely!”
