Meet Rachela (Rah-kela)
Wedding Photographer + Multi Disciplinary Artist
Hello! Welcome. I wish we could sit on my green velvet couch and I could make you a cuppa. Let us envision we’re doing just that as you read this blurb about little ole me. I am a Multi-Disciplinary Artist, with a colourful creative history of pursuing diverse mediums in which to tell stories. My career in Photography began in 2010, where I fell in love with storytelling through the lens. My first wedding I photographed in 2012 on a beautiful rural farm. I was honoured to capture such a monumental and special day. I also started to gain experience in the field of Editorial and Fashion, Bands, Travel and Commercial projects. In tandem to photography, I studied Graphic Design and found my niche in Publication Design. This led to creating an Art + Poetry coffee table book called Lola Ziggy. The four volumes are filled with not only my own work, but that of other artists I curated into the pages, filled to the brim with all the things I treasure; Poetry, Photography, Design and Art.
In 2021 I decided to pick up a paintbrush, stepping out from behind a lens and onto a blank canvas. Brush in one hand and a camera in the other. Because of such a colourful creative history, I believe this gives me a unique art-driven photography style. I have a deep appreciation for people and nature, reflecting the diversity and beauty of life. I understands the emotional depth of a wedding, and strive to honour the real, messy, and beautiful moments that make up your story.
