Rachel was AMAZING! From the moment we met her for our consultation we knew she was the perfect photographer for us! She was genuine and informative and made us feel instantly comfortable. Our engagement session was such a enjoyable experience, I was so nervous and she made me feel like a model and we STILL get compliments. Our wedding day ran so smoothly because of all of her help and confidence, she did so much more than just take pictures, she was basically a wedding planner at the same time. Our wedding photos are everything I could have dreamed of and more! I recommend her to anyone and everyone and I know you won't be disappointed, we will go back to her for any photography session in our future and can't wait for her to capture our family as it grows.

Rachel Smaller is best summed up with one word, passionate. Her photography skills and visual style caught our attention, but her love of the craft, her ability to to make a photo shoot feel like you are meeting up with a long time friend, and her effort that she puts forth to make sure your “special day” is just that, caused us to never want to use anyone else other than her. Rachel is not the kind of photographer that just takes nice looking shots, she is able to capture who you really are in images that are gorgeous, colorful, and natural. We knew early on that Rachel had a gift, so for our wedding we gave her no rules. We “released the creative beast” and now, the true spirit of an amazing artist hangs on our walls. Rachel is fun, down to earth, humble, incredibly personable, and made everything run smoothly and stress free. On our wedding day, we received so many compliments from our families about how joyful, enthusiastic, and hillariously fun Rachel was - she felt like family! Rachel truly loves what she does and put her heart and soul into us and our wedding - she was a huge help planning other aspects of the wedding and was a life saver several times! We have been blown away time and time again from our engagement pictures to our wedding pictures with the moments she was able to capture on camera. Her incredible attention to detail and her determination to capture the essense of our day, the personalities of our wedding party, the emotions of our guests, and the love and excitement between us was truly special. We cannot say enough about Rachel’s character, her professionalism, or her skill set. She is one of a kind. We hired a wedding photographer, and we made a friend.

Rachel is absolutely AMAZING! From the moment we met in our consultation I knew she had to be our photographer. She is incredibly passionate, down-to-earth, and sweet. We immediately had a connection, and she made us feel incredibly comfortable being in front of the camera. My now-husband and I have never liked having our pictures taken, but Rachel made us feel so relaxed and at-ease, we actually ended up having a wonderful time during our engagement shoot, and later at our wedding. Her photos are literally THE BEST you will find, we could not be happier with the photos we have gotten from her. Our engagement pictures are gorgeous and the sneak peek wedding photos we have seen so far are positively STUNNING! She is able to capture the most memorable and meaningful moments without you even noticing she is there. Everyone at our wedding was raving about her and how personable she is. She feels like a member of your family. We plan to have her take all of our future family photos and highly recommend her for anyone who wants amazing photos that you will cherish for the rest of your life. Rachel, you are AMAZING! Thank you SO much for giving us these amazing memories that we will cherish forever.
