CEO and Lead Photographer

Hi! I’m Rachel

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me with a good cup of coffee in hand, soaking in life’s littlest moments. I’m fueled by music, golden light, and the kind of joy that comes from singing your heart out at an at-home karaoke night. The beach is my happy place, where the waves and sunsets remind me to slow down and just enjoy. These simple joys are what inspire the way I capture love — genuine, effortless, and full of light!

More about me

kind words

  • "This woman was absolutely incredible. She is a superhero. Not only was every single shot perfect, but she is an absolute joy to be around and really knows her stuff. Rachel was very communicative throughout the entire process and listened to every idea I had and made them all into reality, even the silly ones! Rachel Betson is worth every single penny. Book her, you will not regret it."

    – JEFF + RED

  • "On the wedding day, her personality was just what we needed- she was organized, stuck to a timeline (but we never ever felt rushed), and gave clear directions to us and a large wedding party. But most importantly she was lighthearted, fun, and our biggest hype woman all day!!"

    – MORGAN + ANDREW

  • "We are absolutely thrilled with our experience from start to finish. She was always very responsive throughout the entire planning process and everything was great. We had a large wedding party with 5 children and she was so patient and easygoing. AND her pictures are beautiful, we are so, so happy with how they turned out. She is truly talented and great at what she does! Highly recommend!"
