I’ve always thought about planning my own styled shoot, but never done it! Well, third trimester me last month thought “Could I squeeze one in before our son is born?” Haha. So I took the shot and began contacting local vendors I’d like to work with! After MUCH planning, talking, and adapting, God worked it […]

Almost exactly two years later, I got to be at the Johnson home again to capture their life now as a family of 4! 😀 And wow, being pregnant with our son due April 1, editing these sneak peeks hit me in a whole new way <3 :’) With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Happy the-winter-storm-is-almost-over, y’all :D. I do love the brightness the beautiful snow/sleet mix outside reflects into our windows <3 . If you still have power like we do, enjoy these sunny fall family portraits I was blessed with capturing in November! 😀 With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

I’m so glad to be blogging Jordan and Claire’s utterly pleasant wedding day :’) . Enjoy, friends 😀 . And Merry Christmas <3 With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Hooray for getting to photograph the Beall family once again, but this time with Glamaw and Papa too! (And hidden baby girl Maron :’) ) . And praise the Lord for taking the rain out of the forecast and giving us SUCH a beautiful day! With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

What a wonderful joy to capture my dear friend Claire marry her man yesterday :’) . It was sunny, rainy, then sunny again and Claire was her happy, mature, stunning self through it all <3 . Jordan’s peaceful confidence in Claire and God’s work in bringing them together was so encouraging to me and made […]

Here’s Abigail’s golden senior portraits :’) <3 <3 With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Before their baby girl makes her outside debut (could be any day!), here’s their lovely, fun maternity shoot from back in April 😀 . With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }
