Hello, World!

A Few More Kind Words...

  • Woman wearing a large pink sun hat and a yellow floral dress holding a glass of white wine and smiling at another person during a social event.

    Working with Rachel Yatteau Photography for this year’s Down and Derby benefit for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta was an absolute privilege. Rachel has a rare gift—not just for capturing images, but for telling a story through every frame. Her photos from the event go far beyond beautiful composition and lighting (which were stunning); they feel alive. In reviewing the photos afterward, it felt like reliving the entire event moment by moment.

    From candid laughter between friends to the heartfelt speeches and the vibrant details of the decor, Rachel captured our event with warmth and authenticity.

    If you’re looking for a photographer who doesn’t just document your event but elevates it by capturing its true soul, Rachel Yatteau is the one. Her work is not just photography—it’s storytelling at its finest. We’re so grateful to have had her talent behind the lens for this special night.

    Rachel - 

    I just wanted to say how absolutely AMAZING the photos you took turned out. We truly love your work - you have such a beautiful way of capturing those special, magical moments, and it really shows in every image. The snow globe images you created were especially incredible. They are so unique, creative and thoughtfully done - something truly special that stands out in the best way. We hope we’ll have the opportunity to work together again the future!

The candid shots turned out so good. She efficiently organized each group in a way that appeared effortless....a real gift! Thank you Rachel. Our wedding photos will always be treasured reminders of our special day!!
