English Speaking Photographer in Paris

Hi there, I’m Rachel: Australian-born, living the dream in Paris…

If you are looking for a photographer in Paris who speaks English, I would be delighted to accompany you on your adventure!

I originally wanted to photograph celebrities—famous people that everyone knew. Years later, I realised that what I actually wanted to do was make everyone look like a celebrity. We can ALL look awesome in photos —yes, we can— we can all look like rock stars or as gorgeous as the most famous movie actresses.

Do you own beautiful portraits of yourself, that you adore and are proud to share with friends and family, either on your walls or on social media?

When was the last time you were professionally photographed?

Living in Paris feels like a dream, with stunning backdrops waiting around every corner. The Eiffel Tower never fails to take my breath away, even though I see it several times a week. But the magic of Paris isn’t just in its iconic landmarks. I find equal inspiration in the gardens of Palais Royal, the charming Ile Saint-Louis, and the banks of the Seine.

Imagine exploring these sights together while I photograph you, living your best life, embracing your best version of yourself, and creating beautiful, authentic images that you will look back on for years. In 20- 30 years you will be so pleased with yourself for capturing these moments!

Alternatively, suppose you’re looking for a more intimate and personal experience. In that case, a boudoir photo shoot at your hotel or Airbnb is a wonderful way to create intimate portraits. I also offer creative-themed shoots, modern personal branding, and headshots, each tailored to reflect your unique story.

I had an absolutely phenomenal experience working with Rachel! She is super talented, kind, patient, and professional. I appreciated her openness to creative collaboration, great eye for detail, and genuine passion. Rachel is knowledgeable around shoot logistics and best locations. She prepared me ahead of time well so I could look forward to the shoot. It was such a fun time and Rachel was dedicated to achieving the creative vision together. The photoshoot was definitely a memorable highlight from my first time in Paris and the pictures turned out incredible! Thank you again, Rachel!!

I can’t recommend Rachel enough! I travelled alone to Paris for a few days and booked a short and sweet with Rachel to capture some memories from my trip. She made me feel comfortable right away and the pictures are 😙🤌🏻

My 17 year old daughter and I had the most incredible & memorable time during our photoshoot with Rachel last summer. Rachel knows all of the most picturesque locations for iconic Paris scenery (as well as gorgeous locations showcasing Paris architecture) and she was incredible at helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Not only did we come away from the day with amazing memories but we also have the most special photos of us around Paris. Highly recommend Rachel.

We had the pleasure of a mother-daughter photography session with Rachel on our recent visit to Paris. Rachel is not only an extremely talented photographer, but is very professional, personable, and kind. It felt like we were spending time with a close friend! She goes the extra mile to make sure her clients are satisfied, including meeting us via zoom prior to our arrival to work out all details of our photo shoot.. She punctual and arrived on time for the day of our session. Rachel knows the layout of Paris well and the best locations for gorgeous photos. We love our beautiful portraits and will cherish them for years to come. I highly recommend booking a VIP session as she has an extensive studio wardrobe of lovely dresses and accessories to choose from, saving some room in your luggage. Thank you, Rachel for all that you did for us! I hope we meet again one day!

Rachel is almost like part of my family :)She was there to capture the moment I proposed to my wife - and she was there again when we came back to Paris with our new born 2 years later.100% recommended. A wonderful human being, an extra-class professional.

Rachel was simply amazing! She worked closely with both me and my fiancé leading up to the photoshoot. She helped me set up my proposal and it went over really well. The photos came back quick and all were so good, it was so hard to choose our favorites. We absolutely would recommend you book your next session with her. She was so kind, knowledgeable, and friendly.

Rachel was so kind and accommodating. We were late (it was our 1st full day in Paris and did not allow enough time for transportation). Rachel was there on time; we communicated through text and she was calming and gracious about waiting for us. She made myself and my 17 year old daughter very comfortable. The photoshoot was one of my favorite memories of our trip to Paris! With Rachel we saw the Eiffel Tower, the Seine, and a very cute, very French cafe while she took photos at each location. I would 100% recommend Rachel to another visitor.

I am so pleased with the photos from the shoot that I did with Rachel on my 50th birthday. She is a wonderful photographer and lovely, kind person who I felt completely comfortable with. We took both professional and boudoir photos they exceeded my expectations in so many ways. Her work is beautiful and I am deeply grateful to her for seeing me so deeply. I highly recommend booking a session with her. 🙂

Taking my granddaughters to Paris was a once-in-a lifetime opportunity and I'm so glad I found Rachel to capture this special trip with photographs. I loved the creative photos on her website and was hopeful she could work her magic with my crew. And she did! Rachel is a true artist and my family and friends were thrilled beyond belief with the beautiful photographs. Thank you Rachel!
