A San Diego Based Photographer

​

​

Hey, my name is Rachael!  

 

I'm a San Diego, California based wedding and lifestyle photographer - Specializing in organic and sun filled photography. I shoot weddings, engagements and family photography in Coronado, La Jolla, Point Loma, Del Mar, Carlsbad and beyond.  I am also a fashionista, foodie, world traveler, animal lover and fitness junkie. As a San Diego native, my favorite activities include sunset walks on the beach and trying out new restaurants. Since photographing my first San Diego wedding in 2014 (Can't believe it's been 10 years in business.. Wow!!), I've been published, shot weddings all over the world and met some of the coolest people!  One of my favorite parts about my job is photographing people in love, on the most important day of their lives.

​

A little backstory:

​

From an early age, creativity was something I was strongly encouraged to express.  Drawing, painting and writing were a daily activity in my household.  I always thought I wanted to follow my mothers footsteps and become a therapist, but the second I picked up a camera, everything changed!  My background as a photographer started over 10 years ago in editorial and fashion photography.  I got my foot in the door working for a popular jewelry brand, focusing on product and lifestyle photography.  Also, learning the in's and out's of how to run a successful business.  Later, second shooting and interning for wedding and lifestyle photographers all over the San Diego area.  Fast forward to 2024 and I'm now running a successful, full time photography business of my own.  The experience I've learned over time has shaped me into who I am as a photographer and individual. 

​

My dream client:

​

My ideal photography client is more than just someone investing in photos.  My ideal client is kind, trusting, joyful, fun and someone who truly values my experience as a photographer.
