Beautiful memories

A new chapter is beginning… and I’m heading west!




I’m so excited to officially be expanding Rachel Payne Photography to beautiful British Columbia and making BC my new home base. I can’t wait to meet new couples and families, explore all the incredible places this province has to offer, and create a whole lot of magic along the way.


But don’t worry, Ontario — I’m not going anywhere! My business will continue to be fully up and running in Ontario, and I’ll be splitting my time between both provinces throughout the year. I’ll still be booking weddings, sessions, minis and all of your favourite things back home while opening my calendar to new adventures out west.


Two provinces, one very full camera bag, and so many new memories waiting to be captured. I seriously cannot wait to see where this next chapter takes me.

hello lovelies,




I’ve wanted to be a photographer ever since I picked up my friend’s Canon PowerShot A610 for the first time when I was 11 years old. I was instantly hooked. Naturally, I went out and bought myself the exact same camera—and pretty much never put it down.


From that point on, I knew photography was something I wanted to pursue. I spent my high school years saving every penny I could toward my first DSLR, but on graduation day, my Grandpa surprised me with his old Nikon D70. I was in love. I started by photographing my friends, then friends of friends, and before I knew it, word started to spread...

Kind words

 

 

Ahhhh oh my goodness, Rachel made our experience the most amazing it could be. My fiancé and I haven't ever had professional photos done so for a first time experience with posing and style and requests... Rachel really stepped up and helped me through the WHOLE thing! I sent her photos of my outfit ideas, photo ideas, asked her about recommended landscape ideas, she even edited a couple photos immediately for me to be able to post our wedding date announcement for our anniversary! ON TOP of everything else Rachel did, she even re-edited a photo upon request for me! Separated from Rachel's extreme professionalism, she is a bubbly, kind, happy, smiley woman! Makes you feel so comfortable and excited to do your shoot! She is flexible and understanding and extremely reasonable!
