Family Portraits

Family photography sessions don’t have to be chaotic and stressful. Enjoy a fun and EASY family shoot with everyone’s eyes open - guaranteed! Whether you want a Full, Enhanced or Mad Mini session*, you’ll have an equally custom experience.

Senior Portraits

This is your moment to celebrate! I send you guidelines and a questionnaire upfront so I really get to know you and your style. I'll share tips on outfits, poses, and what to expect during our shoot. And if we're shooting on location, I even bring a pop-up change tent so you can switch outfits comfortably. Most importantly, we're going to have fun together.

Branding

Your brand photos should tell your story and make people want to work with you. Before we shoot, I guide you through outfit choices, location ideas, poses, and the overall flow so you feel prepared and confident. Together, we create images that capture who you are and what you do.

Headshots

Whether you need a professional update for LinkedIn, a studio session, or an on-location shoot, I've got you covered. And if your company needs headshots for a team or group, I can handle that too. You'll walk away proud of your headshots and having actually enjoyed the experience.

Events

From celebrations to outdoor galas to corporate gatherings, I'm there to capture the moments that matter. I handle all the photos so you can just enjoy the event and be present with your people.

  • Sweet 16 Photos

    “Rachel’s sunny disposition is downright infectious, and I watched her create an enjoyable, stress-free environment while photographing my daughter. Any insecurities my teenager may have had flew right out the window as she leaned into Rachel's positivity. The joy they created during that experience was evident, not only during the shoot, but also in the images created, as it was evident that my daughter felt comfortable, confident and carefree. I can't say enough positive things about Rachel and her exquisite talent, not only behind the lens but also in how she communicates with her clients and makes them feel comfortable during what could otherwise be a stressful situation. On a score of 1-10, Rachel is a 12!" — Megan Bowman (Mother of Three Daughters, Ages 20, 16 and 14)

  • College Graduation

    “I am extremely pleased with the photos Rachel took for my college graduation! She was so much fun to work with on shoot day, helping find fun angles and poses while hyping me up the whole time and making me feel amazing. I left the shoot extremely excited to see how everything turned out but didn’t have to wait long at all - everything was edited and uploaded so quickly it truly blew my mind! I keep looking back at the photos and smiling because Rachel genuinely made me feel and look amazing, and I’m so grateful for her work at such a pivotal point in my life.”

    ~Claire B, class of 2025 Emory University Graduate

  • Nonprofit Event

    “Rachel Yatteau is as talented a photographer as she is a delight to work with. We hosted a 500+ person outdoor event in May, and Rachel thought of everything before our event to ensure she delivered beautiful, timely, and diverse images for us. She took the time to understand what subject matter was important to us to capture, what product and promotional shots for our sponsors might be appreciated, and what look and feel we wanted her photographs to capture. To say she did an incredible job is an understatement. She made multiple site visits prior to our event to understand the lighting; she attended a pre-event committee meeting to get a better sense of our mission for the event and all of the activities we'd planned for the evening; she even purchased an umbrella hat to wear on her head because our forecast called for rain! If you're looking for a creative, talented, thoughtful, professional, look no further than Rachel Yatteau.” — Shelley M.

  • Professional Headshots

She will be my go to photographer from this point forward. “ — Lauren

  • Corporate Event

She captured the emotions of old friends, the interest and friendship with colleagues, and the excitement of owners and staff as we showcased our restaurant for the first time. She also grabbed great shots of the kitchen staff and chef creating their magic. She was pleasant, friendly and worked wonderfully with our customers, interacting professionally with a smile. We cannot thank her enough for these beautiful memories. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Rachel!” — Bemir, owner Aberdeen Steakhouse

  • Corporate Brand Photography & Headshots

    “We were fortunate enough to enlist the help of Rachel to shoot both corporate headshots and group photos during our recent rebranding. Given our line of business and having never done this previously, our staff was hesitant about the process. Rachel’s personality, professionalism, and prep work in advance helped everyone feel at ease upon arrival and made the process more relaxed than we could have imagined. She was able to get so many great shots that we had a hard time deciding which ones to use for our website and profiles. Not only was the photo shoot a breeze, but Rachel was able to help us narrow down which images to use, and share formats easy to use for various mediums. We’ve already recommended Rachel to others and definitely plan to use her for future marketing campaigns. — Bobbi Seymour

  • Senior Photos

    “Rachel was fantastic to work with for our son’s high school graduation photos. She not only selected a great location for the shoot, but also made it look unique despite it being a popular city spot. She offers packages with a range of pricing and products, and the icing on the cake is the quick turnaround and included photo touch-ups! Speaking of packages, Rachel is the total package.” — Stephanie Butler

Her humor made my boys laugh, and she captured the most genuine smiles! Our pictures have always turned great and it’s wonderful to have a photographer who can capture special moments throughout the years. I’m a customer for life!” — Ambrea
