"After working with Rachel on several weddings and events, we can say she is a true artist and professional. Even in adverse conditions she remains calm and confident, delivering the best possible product to her clients. The amount of care and consideration she gives to her work is unlike others I've worked with in the wedding industry. The product she delivers is timely, of the highest quality, and worthy of national recognition."

"When it comes to Rachel's talent, her photos truly speak for themselves. What you won't see, however, is the incredible level of service that you get when you work with Rachel Red Photography! Rachel goes above and beyond, working tirelessly to make sure that she captures all of the moments and all of the emotions, turning her clients' memories into physical keepsakes. There is no one I trust more to do a stellar job for my clients!"
Lindsay Bishop Events
"Rachel is my favorite photographer to work with. Not only are her photos absolutely stunning, but she has the most encouraging, comforting energy while she photographs making everyone at ease. She is thorough yet somehow makes it look totally effortless, and she always makes sure that she knows exactly what I need before starting a shoot. I get so many compliments from other vendors on the photography of my pieces, and I always send them Rachel's way. Her work truly is art."

Rachel was absolutely amazing!! On our wedding day, she got shots of everyone and everything, including things that I hadn't even thought about. She directed our crazy group so well and got all of the shots done quickly and efficiently so we could get back to the celebration! Everyone involved in the wedding loved her and many of our guests commented on how wonderful she was! The photos all came out even better than I could have imagined! ❤
Rachel, I love you! You are absolutely incredible! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU DID!
I can't say enough raves about Rachel and Red! Not just about their truly breathtaking photos of our special wedding day but also the seamless and enthusiastic experience of working together along the way. I felt totally taken care of and at ease. I am profoundly appreciative to have had them both capture the magic of our wedding day. Not only are the photos pure perfection, but working with Rachel every step of the way was such a treat. Her communication, positivity, responsiveness, bright smiles on such a big day in our lives- we just can't express our gratitude enough. Hiring Rachel was the best decision ever and every emotion we get to relive through her stunning photos reminds us of that! They flew all the way to Chicago and sprinkled us with their Southern Charm. We are forever grateful for these beyond beautiful photos! Best decision ever was having them there.
It was clear as soon as I came across the Rachel Red website that we had found our dream photographer. Not only is she beyond talented behind the lens but she is an absolute pleasure to work with. She makes herself available throughout the entire process answering any questions you may have and is super flexible in making sure she achieves the end result you are looking for. When the wedding day came she continued to exceed our expectations, she made every minute seamlessly easy for our friends and family. THEN we received our photos and they were out of this world beautiful. There isn't a moment of the day that she missed and there is NOT ONE photo that we don't love making it impossible to pick our favorite (every last one is our favorite). We highly recommend using Rachel and hope you enjoy as much as we did!
My family has worked with Rachel on multiple occasions, (my wedding, my sister's wedding, and portrait sessions) and she has truly been a pleasure each time. She made sure to capture every moment on my list, and then some. It's like she read my mind when I imagined how I wanted to remember that day. Our pictures were better than I could have EVER imagined!! Everyone in my family loved her, so much so that when my sister was married three years later we had to have her come back! And then THOSE photos--- OMG y'all. They are ridiculously amazing! Did I mention that it was monsooning that day?? That did not stop her from capturing magazine quality photos that we will treasure forever. Rachel is professional, friendly, and adorable... upon meeting her you might feel like old friends.
Rachel was amazing throughout the planning process, during our wedding, and after the wedding! Both my husband and I have HUGE families, but Rachel got through what seemed like a million family photos with time to spare. I left a lot of time for pictures, thinking we wouldn't even get to them all, but we ended up having more than enough! She was so creative with her shots, and helped us feel relaxed throughout the day. Rachel also has a great energy that kept everyone excited about pictures. All of our guests told us that they have no doubt our pictures will be amazing! Also- the day after our wedding she texted me a picture for us to look at while we wait for the rest. After our wedding, I honestly consider Rachel to be a friend. You will be overjoyed that you booked her!
Going with Rachel Red Photography for my wedding was one of the best decisions that I made during planning! Rachel Ashcraft is so talented, engaging, friendly and has an awesome style for her photography. She provided great detail prior to the day so I knew what to expect. She and Red (her 2nd photographer that day) were the perfect pair for the big day!! They did an AMAZING job capturing all the must have shots but were also a great couple to make us feel relaxed and at ease during all of the picture moments. I would HIGHLY recommend Rachel Red Photography to any bride that is getting married in the Charleston/Hilton Head area!
