Portraiture

As of September, we will no longer be known as Racheal’s Photography. After much soul searching, and beating our head into a wall, we have decided to change the name to Bella la Vita photography. It means lovely life in Italian. : ) It will still be us behind the new name, and we would love for everyone to be a part of these exciting changes! Be on the lookout for “Grand Opening” specials in the coming weeks!

When I spoke to Ashley about taking Bayley’s newborn portraits, I was so excited, because I had not been able to visit with this wonderful family since their wedding.  Everyone was still as awesome as I remembered them to be, and now they have Bayley, which is turning out to be just as amazing as the rest of them.  Ashley, I had such a great time with your family, and I can’t wait until we get together again.

These two are just too darn cute…

What can I say about this uber awesome family?   That they are super sweet, and have amazing good looks?  Or is it their sense of fashion?  Whatever it is, I LOVE photographing them!  Our relationship started with a chance encounter at a wedding and blossomed from there.  We started with a maternity session, then newborn pictures, and now family images.  I simply adore this family, and look forward to all the beautiful images we can make together.

Maegan is my heart, and the daughter of my dear friend Nikki. From the time she could talk, it’s always been, “I want to go to Racheal’s”!  The very first place that she spent the night away from home was here with us.  A couple of weeks ago, after much begging, she finally convinced her mommy to let her call and ask to stay.  While she was here, we decided to play dress up and do some pictures. Here are a few that I just adore!
