I know that Jill and Ted’s life together will be filled with tons of laughter and lots of love!

I had the great priviledge of photographing Jill and Ted’s beautiful wedding at the Fort Collins Coutry Club, which provided the perfect backdrop for their Colorado wedding.

Jill and Ted (and their entire families) have the greatest sense of humor..they had me laughing all day.  It was a wonderful gathering family members and friends and the entire day was a true celebration of Jill & Ted’s love for one another.

Remember the sense of humor I mentioned? See below.



Thank you for allowing me to be a witness to your wonderful day. It was a true pleasure!

A big thanks to my assistant Tricia. Also to Sunie & Lia at the Fort Collins Country Club who made the day run seamlessly. And to Matt at Amore DJ Entertainment for the great tunes.

Thank you again for allowing me to be part of your beautiful day. I wish you many laughs and lots of love throughout life! Best, Rachel

There will soon be a new addition to this gorgeous family and I can’t wait to meet her!

I had a wonderful evening in Boulder with Sadler and Gina who are amazingly beautiful both inside and out. We found the perfect little niche next to the foothills for their maternity portrait session.

Thank you for joining me for a beautiful evening. And for laughing at me as I jumped through the grasses and almost stepped on a snake! I can’t wait to meet your sweet little girl-soon! Best, Rachel

Life leads you in circles…many speak of the 6 degrees of separation- and if you know me well it seems to be about 3 degrees of separation most of the time- which is fabulous!

I love how life is so interconnected.

2 years ago I walked into a birthday party for a then 2 year old… I looked up and said- John what are you doing here? He asked the same question of me. It is indeed a very small world!

I have know John since I was about 5 years old. He was my next door neighbor when I lived in Fort Collins as a kiddo and his sister was my best bud with whom I ran around the cul de sac, played soccer and took ballet classes…

I reconnected with John when I ran into him (and his sis) at CU where I attended college and then again at this 2 yr old’s birthday party years later.

The circles of life are amazing and wonderful.

So glad that they brought me around to you and your family again!

Thank you for spending the evening with me.  It is so wonderful to be reconnected with you and your family!  Best, Rachel

Check out these big blues!

I had a blast with this adorable family in City Park on a hot afternoon for our portrait session.  Thank you for sharing the afternoon with me and for acting like fools-jumping, singing, squeaking… to get little “C” to show his bright smile to the camera. (Oh the things we do- anyone watching us had a real show!)

Enjoy all of the marvelous moments with your sweet boy!   Best, Rachel

I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing these darling families recently. When the best friends from college (Julie & Marjorie) reunite now they bring their families too-what fun! 

And I had to include this shot- I love it! It was a bit of a misfire…but happy accidents are always welcome- you never know what you’ll get!

Thanks for spending a lovely morning with me.  I hope that you had tons of fun during your visit.   Best, Rachel

I had the great pleasure of photographing this awesome family up in Vail.

Do you remember this little guy from last year?



Check out how much he has grown!

Thank you so much for being the easiest (and fastest) people to work with…you guys are a blast! Enjoy every minute with your little man!

Best, Rachel
