Hey y'all! Â My name is Rachel and I'm a photographer in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia. Â I've loved photography and capturing special moments ever since I was a teenager, but I started pursuing my passion for photography about a year ago. Â Right around the time my now husband, Andrew, and I had our engagement photos taken and our wedding was quickly approaching, I realized, "Hey! Â *I* want to take these kinds of photos for people!" Â And so it began :-)
I photographed a few events for friends and family here and there, but the first "real" photo session I did was engagement photos for one of my best friends. Â It was so much fun! Â We wandered around a lake near their house that they love and captured so many sweet moments. Â The groom-to-be even got poison ivy from venturing through some "pretty, green areas"! Â But if the photo turned out beautifully, that means it was worth it, right?! ;-) Â I loved the photos, and more importantly, so did Danielle and Phil! Â
