I live in Columbus Ohio with my husband & two dogs! My father was a wedding photographer & made me fall in love with capturing weddings. Parker House is a name near and dear to me because it ties in my maiden name & where I first found, watched & developed my passion for photography, which is home.

When I shot my first wedding at 17 years old for free, I never could have imagined that 14 years later I would be capturing the most beautiful weddings all across the world.

Hi, I’m Rachel!

Although my passion is capturing stunning portraits, I take immense pride in being my bride’s best friend on her wedding day & developing lasting friendships with my clients.

What makes me different :

  • I shoot most weddings with just one photographer (me) & one camera to keep the crowd around you small & keep the day more centered on you than the content

  • I post my actual prices on my website

  • I don’t charge extra if I stay late at a wedding because speeches went too long or the dance floor didn’t get lively until later

  • I send re-edits of their portraits if my style changes or evolves & I still have their raws (Even 2 years later!)

  • As much as I believe my photos are my intellectual property, I am shooting real weddings and real people - your wants, needs, and requests are more important than what a contract says.

My Photos Are Love Letters To My Clients & I Cannot Wait to Write Yours. . .
