Hello, World!

A Few More Kind Words...

  • 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 Yatteau is absolutely incredible!!  We have used her twice for our non-profit, Smasherson, events and can’t wait to hire her for family photos too!   Her talent behind the lens is matched only by her incredible attention to detail—whether it's perfecting lighting or capturing the ideal shot, Rachel’s work always exceeds expectations.

    Rachel is an absolute joy to work with. Fun, outgoing, and easy to be around, she creates an environment where everyone feels relaxed and at ease, resulting in natural, authentic photos. Her generosity and commitment to going above and beyond for her clients truly set her apart.  She is the only photographer Smasherson works with.  

    If you’re looking for a photographer who combines creativity with a wonderful personality and takes a great photo, Rachel is the one. You’ll be thrilled with both the experience and the stunning results!
