ABOUT RACHAEL @shutteredandsnapped
Shuttered and Snapped is more than just a photography business - it's been a creative journey.
Rachael first picked up an slr when she was convinced she was destined to become a police officer. The class was " Crime Scene Photography."
A few years later she purchased her first dslr before a special trip to Europe. After that trip, she paired up with Mesmersive (the snap to her shutter) and photographed weddings and events before moving into a more solitary scope of nature and architecture while working heavily in front of the camera.
The prodigal daughter has returned (and so has her flair for dramatics apparently!) Being the absolute worst in front of a still camera is truly a strength in working with people in front of her lens. It's given Rachael first-hand experience in knowing how unbelievably awkward it can be to have a camera staring at you. Rachael has an ability to disarm and allow her clients to relax in front of her camera, whether a pro or a novice, she's often been commended for this trait.
Her aim is to create timeless portraits that reflect the unique personalities of her clients in that relaxed, carefree moment.
