This spring my family was fortunate to engage the professional services of Rachel K Photo to document a memorable time in our family. Rachel traveled with us to a local out-of-the-way nursery to capture six of us as we rambled through the gardens to find those special floral and greenery spots that qualified to be a great photo setting. Yes, Rachel did a wonderful job and we are ever thankful for the professional skill and interpretative talent she brought to this special family event. Beyond that though, what Rachel was sensitive to and successfully captured, was the intangible nature of our personal family relationships, the love, respect and connectedness we individually hold for each other. Yes, her photos captured all of us but more importantly they told a story most photography strives to, but does not always capture, - our story, our love, our family! Thank you Rachel! read more

We have done 3 photo sessions with Rachel and loved every single moment of each one! She is so talented!! Her work is outstanding, but what sets her apart is her personality. She is professional, courteous, comfortable, and kind. Two of our shoots were with our kids. She is GREAT at getting kids to cooperate. She also good with older people. We did a mini session with our moms for Mother's Day, and Rachel really helped them engage and have fun. Rachel is a designer by nature. Every single detail of the shoot from location to posing is finely detailed and coordinated. Rachel's gift is seeing what will make a shot extraordinary instead of simply good. Rachel literally takes the crazy out of trying to get good photos. We love Rachel, and highly recommend her! read more

I was looking for a natural light photographer to capture my son's 6 month photos and some family photos. I am so happy I found Rachel's website and that she was available for our shoot. Rachel was professional, flexible, and a pleasure to work with! We wanted outdoor photos in the middle of winter, so we knew there would be some risk associated with the colder temperatures and an unpredictable infant! Rachel made us comfortable during the photo session, and even went out her way to change the location last minute. She was also able to secure a permit to take photos at a park on short notice. The photos turned out wonderful, and the turn around was very fast. I would highly recommend Rachel for family photos and look forward to working with her in the future! read more

Rachel did a family photo session with us and the whole experience was wonderful! She was great with the kids; coaxing an unwilling 4 year old boy into a smile. Rachel is a fantastic photographer who produces wonderful pictures. She's very easy to work with through out the whole process from scheduling to a very quick turn around on the photos themselves. We also had the privilege to be apart of a wedding where Rachel was the photographer. She was very professional and almost invisible, which for a wedding photographer is a great compliment. She was able to get beautiful candids and portraits without disrupting the flow of the event. We will definitely call Rachel again for family and event photography! read more

I was originally drawn to Rachel because of the style of her photographs. The way she could capture moments and the deep tones she played up sucked me in. Bonus, she was an absolute DREAM to work with! She made us feel so comfortable and relaxed even when our toddler was getting antsy. She was willing to photograph us in a location new to her and absolutely delivered incredible quality images. I can honestly say there was not a single photo that I was not in love with. There is absolutely no way I can adequately express how much I treasure the photos she shot of my family. If you find yourself connecting with Rachel's work, run, don't walk to book a session! read more

If you are searching for a wonderful photographer in the DC area to beautifully capture your family's precious moments, we highly recommend contacting Rachel. We were lucky enough to find her for our maternity and newborn photos (she offers a bump to baby package deal) and could not have been more pleased with the results. Not only does she make the shoots relaxed and enjoyable but she provides a large number of edited photos for digital download afterward. We will absolutely cherish the photos she took of us for years to come and hire her again in the future! read more

Rachel has done the photography for our family with our first child for his 3 month, 6 month and will do his 1 year pretty soon. She is wonderful at choosing great locations, flexible to work with ideas you have, and very patient! She works to get our sons attention and gets amazing smiles out of him. We never feel rushed and are always in love with the photos we get. She gets the photos out QUICK and as a mom I love that part, I can't wait to see them!! read more

As a momma, there are moments with your babies that you try your best to soak in and lock in your heart as to never forget, though it's not always possible. That's why photographs have always been so special to me. Rachel has captured some of these precious moments for my family. We have amazing photos of our two boys, as well as our family! Some of my favorites are our beach pictures! I could never thank her enough! Rachel is extremely talented! read more

Rachel took my maternity photos in February and did an amazing job! She was very easy to work with and I appreciated that she scouted out some spots near our home to make it super convenient for us. Rachel did a great job coaching us thru the different poses and positions and we couldn't be happier with the end result! I really appreciate her capturing these beautiful photos during a very special pregnancy for us. read more
