Meet Rachel & Mark
Hubby-Wife Photography TeamHi! I'm Rachel Fawn!
I started as Rachel Fawn Photo in 2017 and had photographed over 150 weddings and hundreds of sessions when I met Mark in 2020. I was a widow and he was divorced (life happens). We fell in love and eloped in May 2021, and Mark is now my right-hand man & second shooter!
We're raising four kids (my Louie, 12 and Ophelia, 5; and his Kyler 14, and Haven, 12), with three dogs (Woody, Lupa & FurFrou), two cats (Zelda & Biggie Smalls), and a turtle (Turtle).
We love adventures - and LOVE!

“I do not even know where to begin with this review. Rachel (of Rachel & Mark Photography) is THE BEST photographer I could have ever asked for, and is an incredible person, as well! I booked Rachel in 2019 for my wedding in Fall 2020. We were able to do an engagement photoshoot in the Oakland redwoods and the photos turned out absolutely gorgeous!”

“I knew I wanted someone who was going to capture us authentically and with minimal adjustments, more of a photo story than a stylized shoot, and that is completely Rachel’s style. Due to COVID-19, we had to reschedule the wedding, and she was incredibly flexible and helpful with suggestions as we went through the re-planning process. In advance of the wedding, she sent over sample photo lists and gave good timing suggestions which really made the day run smoothly.”

“The day of the wedding, Rachel captured everything we asked and more! We received a gorgeous set of sneak peek photos and her photo-journalistic style and beautiful, authentic aesthetic were so present in the first set of photos. Finally, Rachel is a kind and generous person, who is easy to be around and knowledgeable about all things wedding! I honestly could not recommend her enough, and we were so lucky to have her capture our wedding.”

“She is an amazing photographer and person... We had an extra emotional wedding as it was 16 days after the Camp Fire... We were blessed with having an amazingly beautiful wedding and just with our sneak peaks she captured every beautiful moment. Her candids are my favorites and she was so sneaky I didn't even realize she was there. Hands down, she's the best!”

Client Testimonials
Ashley & Shawn
“Rachel is absolutely amazing! She started with shooting our engagement shoot and far exceeded my vision. On my wedding day I heard her walk in and seconds later heard the camera going and it didn’t stop until 13.5 hours(!) later and only after double checking with me I didn’t have any more pictures I wanted. She not only captured all the pictures I wanted (after spending almost 2 hours with me a few weeks prior to make sure she knew what I wanted) she used her artistic eye to capture so many more[...]!”
