Hello from Missouri! 😀 . My parents and I are at the tail end of a long over-due visit with our honorary extended family the Kellys 😀 . It’s been SUCH a precious visit and a gorgeous additional adventure was Kaitlyn’s STUNning, snowy senior session yesterday afternoon!! 😀 . We stood on a frozen lake […]

This is my cousin Christian and his lovely fiance’ Cassandra 😀 . Yesterday evening I got to have the happy mix of photographing their engagement photos AND us having a mini family get together with his parents and mine! 😀 We had such a fun time and I’m so happy to have been able to […]

I’ve known Shelbi for about 13 years and to see her become a wife to a Godly man today made me very happy 😀 . Congratulations again, Steve and Shelbi!! May the Lord richly bless y’all as a family unit now 😀 . With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Last Friday morning I had the privilege of capturing Kurtis asking Caitlyn to be his wife and I’m so happy I can share sneak peeks now 😀 😀 . Caitlyn grew up visiting Daingerfield State Park with her family and it’s also where she and Kurtis had their first date 😀 . What a fun, […]

Right after she got her braces off and right before all the Texas rain began, we were able to squeeze in Amalyah’s senior portraits!! 😀 We (along with her sister Niyah‘s whose senior portraits I took last year!) had a great time exploring downtown Daingerfield yesterday afternoon for the occasion :D. So, here’s the stunning […]

We had such a fun time yesterday evening :D. This smart, confident, caring girl loves working with kids and hopes to be a child psychologist someday! Enjoy the sneak peeks of the cheerful, beautiful Claire and her fantastic hair. Hehe 😀 With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Yesterday evening I got to meet and photograph the lovely Skylar :D. She is an artist, a photographer, a cat person, a book lover, and an aspiring journalist :D. I so enjoyed this creative shoot and I hope y’all do too! 😀 With a smile, { Rachel Leigh }

Another senior session happened yesterday! 😀 This is Jameson Gaertner (his sister is Ana whose senior portraits I took two years ago!): he is an avid runner (ran his first marathon last month!), musician (piano), and he’ll be pursuing actuarial science at Drake University this fall! Yeah, smart and talented guy, right here :D. Hope […]

Caroline has been my neighbor her whole life (just a fence separates us!), but as she’s grown up we’ve also become true friends 🙂 . She is joyful, loving, loyal, a great dancer (she hopes to have her own dance studio someday!), and has a true servant’s heart <3 . Yesterday evening I took her […]

Aaah, yesterday’s senior session with my friend Rebekah was fantastic 😀 :D. We had such a great time and she was just effortlessly beautiful as you’ll see :D. I’ve known Rebekah pretty much her whole life and it’s been so fun to watch her grow up and become the caring, well read, strong woman she […]
