SW florida family photographER

Growing up in Sarasota, Florida, I fell in love with photography at 16 and turned that passion into a business in 2018. Today, I specialize in capturing proposals, elopements, family moments, and intimate weddings throughout Southwest Florida. My approach is warm, natural, and true-to-color, preserving the excitement, connection, and little moments that make each season of life worth remembering.

Behind the Brand

John & Gabbi

Rache did an amazing job capturing our engagement! She’s very responsive and goes above & beyond to make sure your needs are met for your special moment. She’s such a sweet person and made the process very easy. Her photos speak for themselves so if you need a photographer look no further!

Tom & Meg

I hired Rachel to document a surprise beach proposal, and I could not have been happier. Her communication prior to the day, assistance in setting everything up, and attention to detail during the shoot was top notch. We are absolutely obsessed with the photos that we got back, and I can't recommend her highly enough!

Alexis & Bryce

Rachel is seriously the BEST!!! I found Julia Rachel Photography at one of the Tampa Wedding Expos and it was a match made in heaven. She did both our engagement shoot and wedding photography and I could not recommend her enough!

Her eye is on point and she literally gets every shot you could ever want. She is also the nicest person ever, so easy to work with, super responsive, and truly takes the time to get to know her clients.

Also, her turnaround time is AMAZING. We got a wedding preview 3 days after our wedding, which was so special, and the full gallery came back so quickly too. Her client portal and shop are also so easy to use for albums, prints, etc.

We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and could not have asked for a better photographer. If you’re thinking about booking Rachel, do it!!! 🤍🤍
