hey, I'm Rachel.

 

A confident young woman in a white blazer and black pants sits gracefully on a chair against a light gray background.

I specialize in newborn photography and milestone sessions with a neutral, minimalist style to preserve the sweetest moments of parenthood.


Whether you're preparing to meet your little one or already soaking in those early newborn days, my goal is to capture images that preserve this stage of life in the most beautiful way possible.


Proudly serving babies and families in Utah County and Salt Lake City.

First, some thoughts...

my art direction


I believe that stunning newborn photography follows three rules:


  1. Less is more (white space = 😍)
  2. Authentic moments are beautiful moments
  3. Baby runs the show



I keep things simple... I curate the perfect, distraction-free backdrop- then immediately step back and let your baby call the shots. By combining thoughtful preparation with raw, unscripted freedom, we capture the real personality (and sometimes real chaos... beautiful chaos, though- I swear) of your newest addition.



At the end of the day, baby is the boss- and I'm just working on their schedule.
