Minneapolis Wedding & Portrait Photographer

genuine connection shot with intention

Rachel Graff Photography captures weddings with the polish of an editorial shoot and the warmth of a day actually lived. Every gallery blends intentional, magazine-worthy portraits with the real laughter, motion, and connection that make a wedding yours — so the images feel as elevated as the day itself, without ever feeling staged.

I'm Rachel - a wedding and engagement photographer who wants your wedding day to feel as beautiful as the images I create. I believe great wedding photography isn't a luxury; it's a necessity. After we're gone, the images of us and our families are how we communicate our experiences. Our milestones (or even the everyday moments) deserve to be captured in a timeless manner, so they can be cherished for years to come.

I have been photographing couples and families since 2015, and I just can't get enough! Photography has introduced me to some of my best friends, brought me to amazing places, and let me into intimate moments I will never forget. Click the button below to learn more about me!

" We could not recommend Rachel more to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely lovely to work with."

-maggie, 2025 bride

"We had the pleasure of having Rachel photograph our wedding and had an amazing experience from start to finish. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, she is also extremely professional, responsive, kind, and great with people - everything a couple wants in a wedding vendor."

-KRISSY, BRIDE

"We were completely ecstatic with our daughter’s pictures. It is rare (if ever) that she likes a picture of herself and she was over-the-moon thrilled with her Senior Pictures. Our daughter repeatedly told us how relaxed she was with Rachel and how kind and sweet she was. Rachel’s direction made her feel competent and at ease. Her pictures were worth every penny!! Highly recommend her!"

-pamela, senior mom

"Rachel is an AMAZING photographer! I can't say enough great things about having her be a part of the special day. She is so genuine/personable and has great ideas for shots. All of my wedding party said how efficient she was as well. She is very organized and pays attention to all the details. The photos turned out way better than I could've ever imagined. As someone who researched a ton of photographers, I HIGHLY recommend having her be apart of your day."
