Rachel Bonnett

Hey there! I'm Rachel, and I'm absolutely passionate about capturing the magic of your wedding day. As a follower of Jesus, wife to my amazing husband Jonathan, and mom to our three incredible kids - Kerra, Abby, and Mikey - I understand the importance of family, love, and those precious moments that take your breath away. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me juggling college classes, baking homemade cookies for my family, getting lost in true crime podcasts, or having epic game nights with my crew (including our three dogs - Molly, Nugget, and Ozzy, who definitely think they run the house!).

 

Photography became my calling over a decade ago, and I've been exclusively focused on weddings and engagements since 2014. What I love most about wedding photography is the privilege of witnessing pure, authentic love - those stolen glances, happy tears, and moments of pure joy that happen when two people commit their lives to each other. My approach is warm, personal, and genuine. I believe your photos should feel like YOU - natural, joyful, and full of life. I take the time to get to know each couple because I truly believe that when you feel comfortable and celebrated, it shows in every single photo. I can't wait to meet you and hear your love story!
