The Art of PORTRAIT

I photograph women through every chapter of their lives

From portraits that mark a personal milestone, to intimate boudoir sessions for a new chapter, to maternity photography celebrating motherhood, to personal branding portraits that help you show up powerfully in your business.

Wherever you are in your story, I'll help you create portraits that feel like you: elegant, timeless, and that you want to put on your walls..

Shooting since 2016.

Your photographer & visual artist

Portrait of photographer and visual artist Rachel Vogeleisen

I believe the best portraits don't just show you; they feel like you.

Women come to me at pivotal moments: a milestone they want to hold onto, a memory they want to create, or a moment in their career when they need to stand out and be seen. Whatever brings you here, my approach stays the same: a focus on what makes you you.

I work with both film and digital, but the heart of my process never changes: capturing the smile in your eyes, the moment you forget that you are in front of the camera and the confidence that defines who you are.

Over the years, I've photographed women across Europe: in London, Marseille, and Berlin, creating timeless images as memories to hold onto..

Sessions take place wherever feels right for you: your own home, a hotel, or a private studio.

My clients tell me my portraits feel elegant, natural, and deeply personal. My greatest hope is that when you look back at these images, years, even decades from now, you won't just see yourself. You'll remember yourself: how you felt, who you were, and the joy of that moment when you transformed into someone else.

  • Absolutely Fantastic Experience with Rachel!

    I recently had a photo shoot in London with Rachel, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, she was professional, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease in front of the camera. Rachel has a great eye for detail and knows exactly how to capture natural, flattering shots that feel genuine rather than posed. She scouted some amazing London locations that perfectly matched the look I was going for, and her creative direction made the entire session feel effortless and fun. The final photos are absolutely stunning, beautifully edited, full of life, and exactly what I’d hoped for (and more!). If you’re looking for a talented photographer who’s not only skilled but also a joy to work with, I can’t recommend Rachel highly enough. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future! — Marinae London photo session
