GET TO KNOW ME
Hey there! I’m Rachel - a wife, dog mom, and your biggest cheerleader. For as long as I can remember, I have always been most comfortable when I’m creating- as a child it was painting and drawing, but once I got my first camera at 16 photography quickly became my biggest love!
My passion is to capture authentic images that you will fall in love with for a lifetime.
My goal for your wedding is to capture the candid moments that naturally happen between you and your loved ones, as well as create timeless, artistic images that are unique to your relationship. I want to always deliver images that reflect exactly how you felt in that moment, ones you can still feel when you show them to your grandbabies one day. (All in as much golden sunlight as possible of course!)
The photos themselves are obviously very important, but as your wedding photographer I also want to make you feel calm and confident on your wedding day! I am here to calm your nerves, ensure that your big day is stress-free and have a lot of FUN all along the way!
When I’m not photographing couples in love, you can find me hanging out with my hubby, Marshall, and our two puppies, Boss and Sophia. We enjoy kayaking, trips to the beach, taking walks through the woods, and working on our hundred year old home. I’m mostly known for my lighthearted personality and my love of the TV show Friends (still bitter that Netflix took it off). As the theme song says, “I’ll be there for you”, cheering you on through your biggest life moments!
"Rachel is such a sweet soul! She made us feel comfortable and at ease, and was so helpful with her posing directions! Rachel was even nice enough to photograph us with our dog, and was extremely patient with us. She's very responsive and gets your photos to you in a timely manner. You can tell that she truly cares about her clients, and pours her heart into each session."
-Reed & Shelly
"Rachel is warm and genuine, she put my fiancé at ease & took her time during our photo shoot. She made us feel important, it was like having your best friend take your wedding photos! My biggest concern when I decided to hire her was finding a photographer who could create a lasting memory that both my fiancé and I would love. We are an interracial couple so I wanted to make sure that our photos highlighted both our best and Rachel did just that!"
- Brian & Tumaini
creating an elevated wedding experience
I'm sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned for your big day. It's all very exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. Your wedding day is over in the blink of an eye and is the one thing you're left with after it's all over. Making sure you have a photographer that gets to know you as a couple, your relationship with your family, and values you as more than just another wedding is vital!
Our goal at Leigh Wolfe & Co is to make your experience is FUN, personalized, and memorable from the day we meet until the day you hold your album in your hands. We are committed to preserving memories that can be seen, touched and felt so you can enjoy reliving your wedding every single day.
Logistically, we will start the process by having an IN PERSON MEETING (or video chat if distance separates us). The meeting helps us get a feel for each other to determine if we're a perfect fit! After booking, we love to get to know clients through an ENGAGEMENT SESSION. Engagement sessions really help you warm up to the camera so on your wedding day, you feel like a total pro.
When the big day arrives, we'll begin photographing you as you're getting into your dress and stay until you're done dancing the night away. But the fun doesn't end there! A few weeks after your wedding we'll have a REVEAL PARTY. We'll pop some bubbly and watch a slideshow of your big day. Friends and family are welcome! We'll also finalize and order your album that day so you can share your memories with friends and family as soon as possible!

Handcrafted Heirloom Albums are the perfect way to remember your wedding day
Your wedding album is an heirloom, a tangible representation of your celebration into marriage. We remember things more vividly when we hold them, feel them, see them, and experience them. A wedding album gives you the ability to hold your wedding memories in your hands and becomes an irreplaceable gift to your loved ones.
We believe in the power of printing your memories so much that we include an album for every one of my clients. Parent albums are also available and a heartfelt gift to loved ones.
Heirloom albums feature a one-piece wraparound cover design in a choice of leather or linen. Images are printed directly on an exclusive crystal archive deep matte paper. The surface produces rich color with pure whites and tremendous visual impact that can be both seen and felt.
The secret sauce to an amazing wedding experience
We offer complimentary engagement sessions to every one of our wedding clients because we believe they are VITAL to getting joyful, relaxed images on your wedding day. Most people are uncomfortable in front of the camera, us included! The more uncomfortable you feel, the more you NEED an engagement session!
At an engagement session you have 1-2 hours to learn some basic posing that will make you look amazing on camera. We learn how you interact as a couple and what kind of images you love. (Maybe you think you only want fun, laughing images. But then at your reveal you swoon when you see the romantic ones.) You get your images back and have proof that you looked as good as we said you did! In turn you trust us and know how to pose. When your wedding day rolls around we get more images in less time (because you've already learned basic posing) and you feel much more relaxed in front of the camera. It's a win win. Plus, it's a good excuse to get your hair and makeup done and flirt for a couple of hours, who wouldn't like that?!
Thank you so much for considering Leigh Wolfe & Co to be a part of your wedding day! If you’re interested in working with us, the next step is to get a date on the calendar. Looking forward to working together soon!
