TESTIMONIES
"The photographs Rachel
took of our two tired grumpy boys one summers
morning are simply amazing. Nobody believes the baby actually
spent much
of the second half of the session in tears - in every shot he
looks cherubic.
Rachel obviously enjoys and understands children and her relaxed
manner
belies her exceptional talent.
We all felt we were simply enjoying our usual Saturday morning
play at the
park and it wasn't until I saw the proof sheet which took my
breath away that
I realised Rachel had unobtrusively captured the most beautiful
moments of
our family which will be forever treasured."
Adrienne, Devonport
"Rachel’s
visits to Melrose have become an annual event, parents love
her photos which capture each child’s special personality
beautifully.
We thoroughly recommend her and look forward to her visits."
Claire,
Supervisor – Melrose Pre-school, Devonport
"Rachel,
I just wanted to say how thrilled I am at the shots you took
of my little
girl and me at Playcentre the other day. Totally impressed at
the results
especially considering I wasn't expecting to have my photo taken.
The best
thing is that you captured how I see my little girl. These photos
will be
treasured always."
Helen, Narrowneck Play Centre
"Rachel
took photos of our very shy one-year-old son on a day when he
was
more a terrible two in the throes of teething! Despite the constant
dribble,
Rachel managed to take a bunch of glorious photos that made
it almost
impossible for us to choose the best.
Not only was she incredibly clever at capturing his real charm
under the veneer
of grump, she was incredibly kind and patient and her nanny
skills came to the
fore at knowing when to distract him and when to leave him to
his own devices.
She was wonderfully patient with Mum and Dad too!! In her unobtrusive
way she
kept the show on the road and made it a fun experience for all,
with great results.
Her attention to detail is fantastic - right down to the prints
arriving with a balloon
which kept the little one busy and happy while Mum and Dad got
to pore over the
lovely pics! Thank you so much Rachel, I shall treasure the
way you captured the
joy in my family for ever."
Pippa, Birkenhead.
"We
had our three children photographed by Rachel at my daughter's
preschool.
I just couldn't believe how quick and easy Rachel made it. She
'snapped'
away without anybody really noticing and got the most amazing
photos.
The best one of my baby was a close up taken of him in my arms
- you'd never
have known I was holding him. She captured the most beautiful
one of my 2
year old just as she was turning to come off the slide - everyone
comments
on it. Then, our absolute favourite is a photo of the three
of them sitting
together in the playground - my oldest is holding the baby and
they are all
cuddled together, beaming - we can't get over how Rachel captured
their
personalities so perfectly in one photo.
Among others, we bought a large photo of that for our wall,
and many, many
copies for our family and friends!
I'm not sure what her trick is, Rachel's photos are simply beautiful
- and so natural."
Ali, Bayswater
"Rachel has taken lots
of photos of our daughter over the past couple of
years and they are absolutely brilliant. We've tried to take
photos
ourselves but they always seem to come out with her eyes shut
or a
cranky
expression on her face.
Apart from Rachel's obvious skills as a fantastic photographer,
she has
an incredible knack with children where she can get them to
be themselves
and this really comes through in her photographs."
Lynn, Ponsonby
