Meaningful Celebrations
If you’re planning something meaningful and aren’t sure what type of coverage fits best, I’d love to hear more.
We had the best time doing our family shoot with Raquel! We had two littles - a two-year-old and a newborn - and she was so patient. I appreciated her willingness to go with the flow of the evening as we navigated temper tantrums and diaper changes. Through it all, she delivered an absolutely beautiful gallery (early!). We will cherish the photos forever. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in need of a great family photographer in the DC area.

KIND WORDS
Raquel was absolutely amazing with our mini shoot and the photos came out amazing! I had to get the whole gallery because I couldn’t decide which ones to pick. She took the time to read what I wrote in my pre-shoot info and then took time with us prior to the shoot to understand what we wanted out of the photos. She was so responsive any time I reached out or had questions, and she was so incredibly kind. Thank you for the beautiful pictures!!!

Raquel is incredibly talented behind the lens! She is also so kind and passionate about making a connection with her clients before AND after their photoshoot. Her calming and easy going demeanor was perfect for our newborn and toddler during a family lifestyle session. We adore the photos she was able to capture during such a special time in our lives. I look forward to booking her for our next session as well.
