    Laura and Rachel were a dream to work with’

    My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Laura and Rachel. The package we chose gave us both engagement and wedding pictures. We had never done a professional photo shoot, so we were a bit nervous, but Laura and Rachel walked us through every shot. Our pictures came out beautifully, so natural and professional looking. Also, to top that off, they were so much fun! We received both our engagement and wedding photos within a few weeks of taking them. They always made sure to send some sneak peeks the first week or so. They were awesome with communication and I can’t say it enough, they were just a dream to work with.

    Excellent experience with Laura & Rachel

    Working with Laura and Rachel was an amazing experience for my wife and me. They had specific knowledge of the venues that we were holding our church ceremony and reception at, which played a huge role in getting the right light for our pictures. We live in New York, Laura and Rachel are based in Charleston, and we had the wedding in California. Understanding that they knew exactly how to shoot our church and reception gave us so much reassurance that the day will run smoothly in their hands. Nothing felt forced or awkward when it came to taking photos and the final proof confirms it when we look over our pictures. They are confident, professional, and lead the...

    Hire This Dynamic Duo

    Laura and Rachel are fabulous! They made me feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera (something that is not always the case). They are professional, talented, on time, and quick with their gallery deliveries :)

    Top notch!

    I had a lovely experience with Laura and Rachel shooting my business branding photos. They provided guidance with posing, made the photo shoot fun and made our vision come to life. The final photos represent both us and our brand so perfectly. Highly recommend their photo services!!! For weddings, they are a joy to work alongside! They are super responsive in emails, create very detailed photography timelines and offer so much guidance for couples. Truly a power duo!

    Laura and Rachel absolutely blew us away in every single way!

    Laura and Rachel absolutely blew us away in every single way. From the very beginning, the two of them made us feel more like their family than simply clients who were paying them for a service. It took us less than 24 hours after our first meeting with them to know they were who we wanted on our wedding day, and I am SO glad we did. They made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and more than that, they made it FUN. We felt special and joyful and so full of love the entire time we worked with them. They made our day flow flawlessly, keeping us on track while still letting us ENJOY the...

    Perfect, professional, charming, delightful

    With all the energy necessary for planning a wedding, it is extremely special to find people who truly understand your heart and inspirations. I found Laura and Rachel on a preferred list of photographers and like most brides immediately looked at their Instagram. Quickly falling in love with their story as a mother and daughter duo, it was safe to say that I did not need to look any further. My experience from the start has been the most professional, heart-warming, and fun that I could ever ask for. They have amazing talent and truly have made me feel like I am the most beautiful bride there is. During my bridal portraits I felt comfortable and I trusted them...

    Blow away by this monther/daughter duo!

    Laura and Rachel were an absolute joy to work with! They made us feel so comfortable and special on our wedding day. They went above and beyond to scope out the wedding ceremony & reception layout prior to the event which was already very short notice for them. They were a true blessing to work with, and I am so glad that our wedding planner recommended them to us. The best mother/daughter duo! My husband and I would highly recommend Laura and Rachel to anyone looking for a photographer. Our sneak peek pictures were so perfect, and we look forward to receiving our full gallery!

    Flawless, Beautiful Images from two creative photographers

    Laura and Rachel are a true joy to work with. From the moment we met them, we felt that we had known them for years. They made taking the photos easy and effortless, and we had a blast creating these new memories along with exploring Charleston along the way. They really take the time to understand the look and feel that you are going for, and gave excellent direction to ensure they captured images we would love. Their eye for detail is impeccable, and the creative element they add to their photos is flawless -- overall they are extremely talented!! The photos we got back were beautifully edited, and returned to us much quicker than expected, we couldn't be...

    Amazing dream wedding photographers

    I cannot put into words how amazing Laura and Rachel are!!!!! From the moment we sat down with them to chat about our wedding they were so kind, professional, answered all of my annoying questions and from that moment on they have never let us down and they have taken some AMAZING PICTURES OF US!! They were so understanding and professional and SO EASY to work with especially when it came to scheduling our engagement session in the midst of COVID shut downs and then when it came time to reschedule our wedding. They are super responsive and always get back to us in a timely manner. They sent us an amazing bridal guide that helped with planning! They...

    We loved them, the experience and the results!

    My fiancé hired Laura and Rachel to capture our proposal in Charleston, South Carolina and I’m so happy he chose them. Due to a hurricane the previous weekend, my fiancé was unable to meet this mother-daughter pair prior to the day-of, but it made no difference because their sweet, vivacious personalities made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. After he asked and I said YES, Laura and Rachel talked us through different poses during our engagement photo shoot. My head was still in the clouds and full of excitement and happiness, so I greatly appreciated the direction! A few hours later when they sent us the photos, we were still celebrating with our family and friends...

    Phenomenal Engagement Session

    Laura and Rachel are simply amazing! They recently photographed my surprise engagement on the beach in California. Those two have great acting skills too! My fiancé planned it out perfectly with them and they captured the moments better than I could have ever imagined. They truly care about taking incredible photos for you to have memories for the rest of your life. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone and hope to have them do our wedding too! Y'all need these two photographers for any important occasion.

    Amazing Experience with Laura & Rachel!

    Laura and Rachel were absolutely amazing to work with! They helped my now fiance, who was not familiar with the Big Sur area, plan the location and set up for our engagement. They went on to capture our engagement perfectly - everyone we shared the photos with said they feel like they were there with us. We cannot recommend them enough and we look forward to working with them again as we continue our journey.

    Dynamic Duo!

    Where do I even begin? Laura and Rachel are two of the most kind, dedicated, and talented people I've ever met. Our paths crossed by chance at a bridal runway show and it didn't take longer than a few seconds to see how genuinely passionate they were about their profession in photography or serving their couples.

    Since then, we've developed an incredible friendship and my husband and I couldn't be more thankful for them. They've captured a couples portrait session (2016), graduation portraits (2017), my *surprise!* proposal (2017), our engagement (2018), and finally ... our WEDDING (2019)! Every shoot we have had with Laura and Rachel has been incredibly enjoyable and FUN! My husband does not normally...

    Amazing, Talented Photographers!

    Working with Laura and Rachel was a true joy! They are incredibly genuine, passionate and amazing at what they do (not to mention, they are so talented at photography)! Photographers play an intimate role in your big day, they are around you at the most precious/monumental moments and Laura and Rachel are the perfect photographers to help make your wedding day extra magical. They make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, capture your love, make you feel valued and celebrate the excitement of your special day with you as if they were your longtime friends.

    I was constantly so impressed with their professionalism, organization, helpfulness and responsiveness. They always made me feel like I could...

    The pictures were perfect! From the bottom of our hearts we cannot thank them enough for everything. Between giving me a timeline to work with, answering all my questions, our engagement picture shoot and how much ease they navigated every picture on the day of our wedding, we were so lucky to find them! Picking a photographer is such a big task of wedding planning and from the moment we met them we knew that working with them would work with such ease. The day goes by so quick and I am so happy that we had Laura and Rachel to capture every moment for us. They also have such a quick turn around in getting the pictures to you which is always great since you cannot wait to see them! Thanks so much Laura and Rachel!

    Laura and Rachel did the most amazing job with my wedding photos! They are seriously a dream come true, I have gotten so many compliments! People keep saying they belong in a magazine! Thanks so much for the awesome help! I recommend them to everyone! They were quick too! Took less than a month to get my pictures! I can't wait to order some prints, and I'm looking forward to getting my album ?

    Incredible!

    Laura and Rachel helped me make my proposal so special, and I cannot speak more highly of the work they do! I reached out to Laura and Rachel several months before I was planning to propose, only having chosen a date.

    From there, they walked me step by step through every piece of the process including picking a location, selecting flower arrangements, selecting a restaurant, finding and scheduling transportation, picking a hotel, and more! Not only that, but they took care of everything on the big day! They decorated every venue impeccably- and they made everything look so easy!

    Additionally, the photos were nothing short of perfect. My fiancé and I couldn't be happier with...

    Best Decision of our Wedding!!!

    Where do we begin?! Laura and Rachel not only saved our wedding day, but made it truly the most magical experience for us. We had booked Laura and Rachel about a year and a half out before our scheduled wedding date. When an impending hurricane was headed to Charleston for our wedding day, we made a spur of the moment decision to get married the day prior to our schedule date. Laura and Rachel, with only hours notice, made themselves available for our impromptu ceremony and captured the most beautiful photos we ever could have asked for. They calmed us and made us feel so special. We had so much fun with them and can’t thank them enough for...

    Amazing!! Can't recommend them enough!

    We absolutely loved working with Laura and Rachel! From the beginning all the way to receiving our wedding photos they have been so welcoming and upbeat. They truly did a beautiful job capturing our love for one another and the beauty of Charleston. Both our families and friends have absolutely praised our wedding photos and we can't recommend them enough! We will definitely be coming back and working with Laura and Rachel again to document our special family moments throughout the years to come.

    Best wedding photographer!

    Laura and Rachel were a joy to work with! I cannot say enough great things about them. From the start of finding Laura and Rachel, they took the time to get to know us and understand our vision for our wedding. Once we hired Laura and Rachel, we were struggling to find some of our other vendors and they recommended a variety of vendors we ended up moving forward with.

    Nolan and myself aren't the most comfortable in front of the camera and they went out of their way to put us at ease. We had the most amazing engagement session in Big Sur and then for our wedding in Carmel, Laura and Rachel went above and...

    Dynamic Mother/Daughter Duo

    There is not enough words that I can say about Laura & Rachel. But I'll start with this, they are AMAZING! L&R are the sweetest, most creative team I have ever come across. We hired them for our engagement shoot, which we were very nervous to be in front a lens. Their professionalism, kindness, sweet smiles and laughs made us feel so comfortable and confident which translated to amazing photos. Then we hired them for our wedding photos, and oh my god - they showed up! I had a destination wedding and these two showed up days earlier to scout the area for the best views. The entire photo process they guided me and my husband through feeling and...

    Engagement Photos

    Laura and Rachel are an amazing duo! I am not from the Charleston area and had little familiarity with the town. I knew that I wanted to propose in Charleston, and that was about it. Laura and Rachel made amazing recommendations for proposal locations and helped create a perfect plan for the big moment. They provided very specific details which helped alleviate any stress I was feeling. After the proposal they made my fiancé and I feel very comfortable during the hour long picture session. We also received the pictures way ahead ahead of schedule, which was not expected! The site is easy to use as well which is nice. Overall an amazing experience and I would 100% recommend working with this mother daughter duo.
