Houston family, maternity & newborn photographer
stress-free, personalized experiences for families who value authentic family memories
you want beautiful photos, honoring your maternity, newborn or family experience
You want photos you are obsessed with. You want stunning locations, natural posing without having to stress about anything. You want to actually enjoy the session and have fun. You value real authentic moments in parenthood. You value memories and creating family heirlooms. You want a personalized experience that showcases your family’s love…
you’ve decided you don’t want the stress of…
bribing your children to smile at the camera
a traumatic experience where someone (or everyone) ends up crying
scrambling to choose everyone’s outfits moments before the session
choosing where, how and what to print into art for your home
my purpose is to create an enjoyable photography session and provide timeless art
From assisting with clothing for the entire family, to scouting stunning locations, engaging your children in play, everything will be taken care of so that you can simply relax and enjoy your family! I provide all-inclusive photo sessions from planning, execution and printing art work to display in your home
My family sessions are play-based family photo sessions: You want beautiful family photos but your active children won’t stand still and smile for the camera. Good! Let them play!
Trust me, The images you’ll cherish for decades are the candid moments. The moments of playing with dad. The hugs and kisses from mom. The smile of mom while watching her husband tickling her son or dancing with her daughter . Let’s capture these moments now because they truly are fleeting ♥️
about me
My mission is to create personalized family portrait sessions, showcasing your unique family. I do not want to simply show up, pose you next to each other and snap while you stare at the camera. I desire to create art with images of your beautiful family loving on each other.
You want someone who understands motherhood: the messiness of toddlers, the attitude of teenagers, the dad jokes 😜 I have my own two young children, who do not sit still and a husband who doesn’t love his photo being taken!
I have years of experience working with children and adults who experience neurodivergence and/or special needs. Even if physical touch isn’t your love-language, I got you! We will obtain beautiful loving moments that you’ll want to share with the world. A candid lifestyle session thrives on being your normal selves and loving on your family; in whatever way that looks like for you. You can rest assured your children will enjoy their experience and feel comfortable with me

"We had such a great experience working with Rachel! She had such a calm, down-to-earth vibe that helped all of us (especially the kids!) feel at ease right away. She was so patient and wonderful with out little ones, even when they were constantly on the move. The pictures turned out beautifully, and we'll treasure them for years to come. Highly recommend!"
