Specializing in capturing the story of your love through authentic, timeless, and emotive wedding photography. Raechel is a wedding, family, and portrait photographer based in Bridgman, Michigan, documenting meaningful moments for couples and families.
As cliché as it sounds, I love love, and I know you do too—that’s why you’re here! Whether it’s the laughter shared between family members, the quiet, emotional seconds before you say “I do,” or the way your partner looks at you when you’re not even paying attention—I see the moments that matter.

She had such a creative eye in the best places to take photos around the venue space and made sure to capture the photos and pieces we were really looking for! Her ability to pose us and capture the genuine emotions we were feeling in those moments is pure magic. Looking at her photos brings us right back to our wedding day.
Kristin + Jared
Working with Raechel was an absolute dream! From our engagement session on the beach in South Haven to our wedding day, she made everything feel effortless and magical. The engagement session was like something out of a dream, and our wedding photos are pure perfection. We’ll cherish them for the rest of our lives.

Not only did the pictures turn out amazing, but she was instrumental in helping our special day run without a hitch. She is a natural calming presence, gives clear and simple instructions on poses, constantly made sure every detail of my dress, hair and makeup was perfect, and made the day fun!
My mission is to capture timeless, true-to-life photos that let you relive the emotions, energy, and beauty of your most meaningful moments for years to come. With a focus on creating a comfortable and guided experience, I ensure you feel present and understood while documenting both the big celebrations and the in-between moments.
Most clients invest an average of $4,800 for their wedding day.
You’ll receive a sneak peek within 24-48 hours, your full gallery in just 4 weeks, and engagement photos within 10 days. Your images are delivered in a beautiful digital gallery with access to a professional print store. Plus, I offer add-on options and timeline planning guidance to ensure every detail is covered.
Your wedding is more than just a series of events—it’s a story filled with love, connection, and once-in-a-lifetime moments. My approach blends beautifully composed portraits with genuine, unscripted emotions, and natural tones with a touch of vibrancy, ensuring your gallery reflects the joy, romance, and personality of your day with images that look just as real as the day they were taken.
From the moment you inquire, I’m here to make the process easy and enjoyable. You'll receive a personalized experience with clear communication, planning guidance, and resources to help you feel confident and prepared. On your wedding day, I’ll be both a calming presence and a proactive photographer—gently guiding when needed while capturing moments as they naturally unfold.
