I love when I have the opportunity to witness the next phase of my wedding couple’s journey as they add more to their love stories. The first phase of Abby & Andrew’s love story that I was able to capture was their awesome engagement session tucked in the foothills north of Fort Collins, at their family cabin. Then it was on to Abby and Andrew’s super fun wedding at the beautiful Della Terra Mountain Chateau.  Since then I have been fortunate to be able to see Abby and Andrew during their next adventure by frequenting their delicious Food Truck… Read More »

This family…what can I say?  They are just so much fun, and you can see it in the photos. This family is full of awesome personalities and no shortage of laughter and fun in their family. We met up in Old Town for a quick morning shoot, and I love the shots we captured. I am so lucky to have them as friends and clients and as an AMAZING teacher for my youngest! Miss Heather, you are wonderful! Thanks for inviting me to capture your amazing family. You guys rock.

More catching up! Here are some of the beautiful families that I was fortunate enough to photograph on the second day of mini sessions at the the AMAZING Laughing Buck Farm. I mentioned this before, but it’s worth repeating because Laughing Buck Farm is a gem tucked right here in Fort Collins.  And if you haven’t been there yet to check out their delicious fresh eggs of their amazing goat soaps, or to have your kids take part in their farm programs…then head there right now, you won’t be disappointed. They are amazing and the classes… Read More »

A highlight of every fall is when I get to do Portrait Mini Sessions. It is the time of year when I get to reconnect with families, some I have seen and others I haven’t since the previous year. I love seeing the growth and changes in the kids and I love meeting a few new families every year. Since my wedding season extended into October this year, I did not have a lot of time for full sessions, so I am so glad that I was able to squeeze in two jam packed days at… Read More »

Its always a joy to do newborn sessions. I forget just how small they are, despite the fact I am only 2 years post having a little bundle of my own. I am so grateful to all of you who ask me into the special times in your life. It is a great honor to capture it all for you to remember long after the sleep deprived nights are over, and this newborn stage is a distant blur, as you are whirling through toddler-hood. Thank you for inviting me to photograph your darling family again…. Read More »

Another stellar day in the fields of Fort Collins with these spectacular families.

Another smashing bunch of families!  I am so blessed to see many of them year after year, and I LOVE seeing how the kids grow and change. Thank you for taking part in the Mini Sessions.  What a terrific way to spend my day, lucky me! (Image overload coming at you…)

Oh these gorgeous families!  Thank you so much for being part of the portrait mini sessions- and for being flexible with the rain!  I love seeing these families grow and change every year.

These two are growing up way too fast (and that means my kiddos are as well, since they are buds!). You may remember these sweeties from this shoot back when she was just about 6 months old and he was around 3. But here they are now! As cute as ever. We wish you didn’t live so far away…but can’t wait for you to move back!  Thank you for inviting me to document your sweeties as they grow, I love it. Best, Rachel

This has been such a wonderful project to work on. Wonderful babies and families and an incredible local business to work with. Thank you for inviting me to take part in it. I can’t wait to see what the amazing people One Tribe Creative come up with. Here are some of the images from lifestyle shoot #3.
