Miss *S*

I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting this sweet little girl last week. This is Miss *S*. I photographed her and her mommy and daddy at the beach. Have I mentioned how much I love beach sessions?! Miss *S* was just as sweet as can be. She held out for 2 hours. She just cracked me up when she put a handful of sand in her mouth and *crunched-crunched* on the shells. I know, makes you cringe, doesn’t it? Kind of like fingernails on a chalkboard. Yeah! But her face and words afterwards were priceless, when she would get a big smile on her face and say “Yum.”

*K* and *R*, thank you for making the drive. I really enjoyed meeting your family. You were great. Thank you for allowing *S* to explore. I got some great shots because of your patience and calmness! Can’t wait to show you the rest!

Breast Cancer Book

As many of you know I have been working on a project to raise money for Breast Cancer. I am doing my last photo session on July 17. The book has grown from 32 pages to 64 pages due to the amazing response from the women in the community who have been affected by this horrible disease. I would like to let you know that the books are now on sale. I have not finished designing them as I am waiting on this last session. However, I must place my order for the books by August 1st. I still need about 150 orders for the books. So, I need your help. Please if you are interested or know someone who is interested in purchasing a book have them email me at photosbyrachel@aol.com.
Here are the specifics.

Amount: $50 (ALL proceeds go towards the cause)
Amount due before Aug. 1.
Email me for more details on how to make payment.

Here are some preliminary photos of the book. The cover will actually have one of the women's faces on it. Each woman will be featured on a page. This is a beautiful coffee table album which you can proudly display. Thank you for your help on this!

Interested in me coming to your town?

I have had people ask me if I will travel for a session. The answer is YES! I do travel. If you aren't in my area or if you are out of state, don't fret. I will travel to you. :) If you are interested in me traveling to your town contact me. Let's set something up! You can email me at: photosbyrachel@aol.com

Christmas in July

Yes, it's that time again. Time to begin thinking about your Holiday portraits. I am currently booking for holiday sessions.

Thanks for capturing this for me, Lis. I need to get a video camera.
