It's so nice to meet you
I'm an adventure seeking, hopeless romantic, mama to two humans & one attention seeking fur-child (and yes, he is my favourite) ;) Always belting out a tune in the shower trying to hit those Whitney high notes. Glass half full kinda gal especially if it's a savvy b. Everybody loves me, especially the oldies. I promise I'll bring my fun energy, infectious smile and blend into your day to tell your story!
Laughing with my Grandma as we flipped through her wedding album is what inspired me to become a wedding photographer. The look on her face lit a fire in my soul and I knew I wanted to document weddings. To know that couples can be transported back to that day and feel the emotion all over again.
My name is Rachael

MY PHOTOGRAPHY JOURNEY
MY PHOTOGRAPHY JOURNEY
My love for photography began well over a decade ago when my boys were little, after realising photography was the career for me, I then went on to study photography at RMIT for three years. Fast forward to today I've now been working in the industry for 11 years, my passion is still as strong as the day I began.

MY FAV THINGS
EVERY Wedding, I see the WORLD through a Whole New Lens
01 / 02
My overall goal when behind the lens is to make sure the day flows smoothly. Documenting the getting ready prep through to ceremony, reception and afterparty. I’ll be there in the centre of it all or as a wallflower behind the scenes, photographing moments and details that you might’ve missed (e.g. Aunty Doris getting drunk on the d-floor). Whether I stick to purely candid shots or guide you for editorial shots, Like a chameleon I blend in beautifully to every situation.
Behind the Lens
Rain, hail or shine, I won’t miss a beat
