Rachel C Bonnett Photography is more than a business...
Meet Rachel & Melissa
We’re Rachel and Melissa—best friends, creative partners, and the heart behind Rachel C. Bonnett Photography. With a friendship spanning over a decade, we bring more than experience to each wedding day—we bring genuine joy, trust, and seamless teamwork. We believe the best photographs are created in an environment filled with laughter, calm support, and meaningful connection.
About Rachel
I’m Rachel: a wife of 15 years, a mom, a photographer, a student, and a lifelong animal lover. I’m happiest on warm spring days with a good cup of coffee, my Kindle nearby, and meaningful conversations that linger. Photography is my way of honoring love, connection, and the beauty found in real moments. I’m endlessly grateful to document such meaningful seasons of life—and to do so alongside my best friend.
About Melissa
Melissa is my best friend and trusted second photographer, but her role extends far beyond that. She’s married to her wonderful husband, a devoted mom to an amazing daughter, and a proud grandmother who absolutely adores her grandson. She loves being outdoors, soaking up sunshine, and noticing the beauty in everyday moments. Melissa’s calming presence, creativity, and heartfelt approach bring an added layer of care and intention to every wedding day.
