Behind the Lens
An Indiana girl from the start, I stayed for college where I explored the arts through theatre and music at Indiana University. This led to my big move to Los Angeles where, with the respect and discretion of the hospitality industry, I catered with ease to discerning clientele and distinguished celebrities in 5-star establishments in Beverly Hills. Leaving the bright lights of Hollywood behind me, I moved again to sunny Phoenix, Arizona. For ten successful years I worked in residential real estate selling new homes for the nation’s top builders. In the corporate world, clear communication is key, attention to detail is essential, and professionalism produces lasting relationships.
Eventually, it was time to fill my life with creativity and artistry again. Having always been fascinated by photography and how a single impactful image can tell a captivating story, I dedicated myself to pursuing the art. Within two years I was able to quit my day job and find my way back to my creative roots by becoming a full time professional photographer.

design for a national catalog. The art room was a dream. It was there I freely explored and fell in love with art—from running my fingertips over the endless types of sample paper, to the wall of markers in every color imaginable, catalog markups and why products ended up on the cutting room floor, and the smell of the warm pages and fresh ink off the massive commercial printer.
Rachel is a true artist with understanding of light, composition, and emotions that photographs can evoke. She is fun to be around, very professional, and put us all at ease. All of our guests were so excited when they saw the quality of her photography in the previews. We are still on a high from that day. We hired the best.
