ABOUT
JUST SO YOU KNOW...
I grew up in the Shawano area and took photography classes at in High School (Shawano Community High School) and College (MATC-Madison Area Technical College)... until I realized, that sitting in a studio class for 30 hours a week wouldn't help me become a good photographer. So I decided to get out of the class room. I began first with freelance work... I now specialize in Wedding and Child Care photography.The 5 things you should remember... 1) I love JESUS, my family, and my canon2) My favorite tool in photoshop is "quick select"3) I always get choked up when the bride and groom exchange their vows4) Elegant Exposure was established in 2007... and I've never looked back5) This is my only job... not a hobby. At Elegant Exposure, I understand that each client has different needs. And although I offer basic services and packages at preset prices, I am more than willing to serve your unique requests. Photography is an art and I approach it as such.**special thanks to ©NadinePau-stock and ©Daintyish from deviantart.com for the use of their amazing brushes!
FEEDBACK
customer feedbackI know we only just got engagement pics, but I know the wedding with be the same as the session. Working with you as a photographer, for one of the most important days of our lives, has been an experience that I will never forget. I have already been telling everyone about you and how fun you are to work with. They were so impressed at the engagement pics that everyone is looking forward to seeing the ones for the wedding. Dan and I have also already discussed that we want you to take pics of your children when we have some. You are a wonderful photographer and a blast to work with. You are highly recommended by Dan and I. I cannot express how happy we are about the pics and excited to have you photograph our wedding.-Heather & Dan ZeemanDuring the photo shoot, Rachael really went the extra mile to make sure that the poses, lighting, etc. really showed my personality.-AmandaThank you, thank you, thank you for the pictures! I love them... they turned out amazing!-Ashley & ErikRachael was an amazing asset to our wedding day. She was personable, punctual, creative, and flexible. Rachael was able to shoot every photo idea from sassy bridesmaids, to beautiful bouquets, to barhopping fun, to cake cutting, dinner shots, and even our first dance. We took great pride in knowing that all of our most memorable wedding moments would be caught on camera. Our wedding photos are absolutely gorgeous...thanks Rachael!!!- Nic & Stacy TeachoutWe were so glad we had you do our photos! My family can be chaotic and loud, but you did a great job getting everyone to cooperate. I had several people mention to me afterward that they thought our photographer was fantastic. Not to mention the pictures turned out beautifully! We're thrilled with the end results. -Christine & Jay HilleI would just like to say how happy I was with Rachel-Elegant Exposure. I couldnt have asked for a better photographer, she was so professional but yet so fun. She had such unique ways for us to take pictures and they all turned out AMAZING!! I have referred her to all of my friends/family who have upcoming weddings. Besides the absolutely beautiful pictures that I received, she worked around my hectic schedule for all our meets And not to mention the prices, cant beat them anywhere! Thank you Rachel for such a wonderful experience and pictures I will cherish forever.-Amanda & Andy Tupper My photographs were amazing, everyone loved them. The price was very good for how awesome they looked.-KaitlinYou did an amazing job on my wedding photos. I can't stop looking at them. I will be recommending you to everyone I know. -Heather & James I loved the quality of the pictures for the wonderful prices. Rachael works with what you want and desire!! Me an my husband had one hard time... and that was picking the pictures that wend on our wall... they were all so great!!-Jamie & Robert ShawRachael, you always do a wonderful job. We enjoy and appreciate your work. It is always a wonderful experience to come and sit for you. Thank you so much!-The Gulbrandsen FamilyWe really enjoyed having Rachael as our wedding photographer. She is very personable and outgoing. She will make it easy to smile for your pictures. Rachael had fresh ideas for our wedding pictures, and not the same "standard" pictures that other photographers will give you. And Rachael's pricing is so much more reasonable than other photographers who will only give you those "standard" pictures. Our family and friends have given us so many wonderful comments about our wedding pictures. We are so happy that we used Rachael as our photographer. She gave us so many wonderful wedding pictures that put a smile on our face every time that we look at them. Your wedding is such an important and memorable day in your life, and if you want pictures that you can always look back and smile at, then you need to have Rachael as your photographer. We will always recommend Rachael to our family and friends when they are looking for a photographer.-Gina & Tim GuellerThanks a million for the great time today! Vinnie and I had an amazing time this morning! We can't wait for the pics!!! Then again we can't wait for u to make our wedding day even more special by being a part of it!!!! (ANYONE who is reading this should check out this photographer!!!) She is better than amazing!!) -Stephanie & VinceI was a little skeptical about going here because I had never heard of her and the prices were outstanding. I was afraid the quality would lack. I WORRIED FOR NOTHING! She is a wonderful photographer and will definitely use her for all my photography needs in the future. WELL DONE!-Anonymous*Rachael was so excellent to work with, and bent over backwards with any requests I made, even last minute requests. The price for what you get is amazing. You can't beat it. Great quality for what you pay for. -Anonymous**I do not require your information to leave feedback...
