Your Paris photographer
where every story belongs
Every love story is worth celebrating.
Every moment, worth remembering.
Every person, worthy of feeling seen.
No matter your race, religion, size, background, sexual or gender identity, I want to celebrate you, just as you are.
Let’s embrace what makes you you and create memories that feel effortless, real, and completely unique.
Consider me your Paris-obsessed
memory-making sidekick.
Oh hey,
I'm Rachael!
I capture the good stuff, the way your partner sneaks a glance when you’re not looking, the unfiltered joy of your kiddo chasing pigeons in a Parisian square, or that quiet, awe-struck moment when it hits you:
You’re really here!
When I say we’re gonna be friends, I mean it! I’m not the “stiff poses and fake smiles” kind of Paris photographer. I’m the one hyped up on espresso, fixing flyaway hairs, and making sure you actually have fun. No awkward prom-style posing here. Just you, fully present, fully yourself. Because who you are is already picture-perfect, and I’m here to prove it.
How Paris became home
I landed in Paris in April 2009 with a three-month work visa, a suitcase, and absolutely no clue what I was doing.
Fast-forward more than a decade and a half, and somehow, this city became my forever. Now, I spend my days photographing love stories, dodging tourists like a local, and debating the best baguette in town, all while sharing life with my incredible French husband and three extremely vocal French cats.
Capturing the real you
Ditch the stiff poses.
Forget the pre-planned shot list.
Just be in the moment.
The belly laughs that make your cheeks hurt.
The forehead kisses that say more than words.
The wind-in-your-hair kind of magic.
The smitten glances you thought no one saw.
The wiggly kids who refuse to sit still (and that’s okay!).
Because the best photos aren’t staged,
they’re felt.
"Not many people can instantly connect with you quite like Rachael"
"Rachael was all positivity, all smiles, and 100% bubbly. Which for anyone taking pictures at 8:30 am while jet-lagged, is exactly what you need! She was so kind and so, so funny, which really helped us loosen up before taking pictures! We highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!"
- Taylor
"I can't say enough wonderful things about Rachael"
"She is extremely conscientious, thoughtful and knowledgeable and went above and beyond to create the most beautiful photos for me! She is such a warm person and was so patient with and kind. I truly enjoyed my session together and could not love my photos more!"
- Olivia
"Rachael is one of the biggest gems I have ever met."
You won't regret booking her. The day of my shoot it POURED. She took time out to reschedule and found me a place to get my hair done for the re-do. My pictures are cool as hell and that's what you'll get with Rachael - warm, fun, incredible pictures because of the warmth and fun she brings to the shoot.

More than just another vacation photo
We laugh too much. Smile too wide. Dance in the streets.
And somewhere in between? We’re making the kind of memories that don’t just live on your phone, they live in your heart. The ones that stick, settle, and stay, the inside jokes, the spontaneous detours, the can’t-stop-smiling kind of moments that hit you like a love song when you least expect it.
Because this isn’t just about pretty pictures. It’s about giving you something real. Photos that feel like you, moments that feel like magic, and a Paris experience so good, you’ll want to replay, relive, and, let’s be honest, repost it forever.
If it feels like we’ve known each other forever..…That’s because we probably will!
You’ll find me weaving through the crowds, camera in hand, chasing golden light and stolen kisses. Just look for the Paris photographer with a contagious laugh, hyping up strangers, offering unsolicited museum recommendations, and making sure every love story gets its cinematic moment.
Maybe, just maybe, I’ll get to capture yours, too.
Your Favorite Photographer in Paris
Only a true Parisian photographer knows how to navigate the city’s quirks with ease. Finding the best light, sidestepping the crowds, and knowing exactly where to go when the weather pulls a fast one.
My job is to make your photo session feel effortless, so all you have to do is show up, soak it in, and enjoy the moment!
