Rachel DesJardins Photography

Hey there, I'm Rachel! I'm the lady behind the lens and the passion behind the story. I like backpacking on the North Shore, dreaming up my next travel plans, and picking up a good book before I have time to finish the last one. I have two dogs that know all the commands but do whatever they want to on a regular basis, and they are my couch buddies for nights when I settle in with a glass of wine and an episode of Friends! I’m a foster parent and I’ve been riding that rollercoaster since December of 2020. My life is never boring and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Let's ditch the poses and document real life. The messy, the silly, and the belly laughs. I want to document you as you are. I am a candid storytelling photographer. Of course we will get your portraits and family photos but I want to catch those in between moments and the candid sweetness. I enjoy giving my couples some light prompting and then watch the two interact. Awkward? No problem, I got you. I am a lover of stories, a kindness collector, a foster parent, and a never-giver-upper. My inner circle of friends is my family and I wholeheartedly believe in changing the world through your passion, service, and kindness.
