The RGP Senior Pictures Team

Your senior pictures should be a fun, positive experience that captures your natural self. Rachel and her team of photographers are ready to give you the best senior pictures experience in the state of Minnesota!

Rachel takes on a large number of senior clients each year, but she also has a team of associate photographers who shoot senior sessions under the Rachel Graff Photography brand. The associates will photograph your senior session, but the communication, planning, and photo editing still goes through Rachel, so you still get the RGP look and experience along the way.

All associate photographers are trained directly by Rachel on posing techniques and process, location scouting and lighting, and shooting techniques, so you get the same great quality photos and experience. I also hire associates with the same positive and upbeat personalities, and require the team to shoot on the same photography gear. Therefore, if you book with an RGP associate, you can rest assured that you are going to get not only similar images, but also a comparable experience along the way.

Ali grew up in the western Twin Cities suburbs. She welcomed her son, Ethan, on NYE of 2023 and absolutely loves being a mom. Ali loves shooting at the Arboretum and specializes in pretty, elegant, and feminine portraits. For fun, Ali likes to read, hike, ski, travel, and is a big foodie. 

Rachel is the owner and lead photographer of Rachel Graff Photography. She’s a high-school-English-teacher-turned-photographer who's been capturing senior pictures around the Twin Cities since 2014. Rachel is passionate about working with high school students, because she loves how her clients "keep her young" and approach their sessions with such excitement. She loves theater, true crime documentaries, Harry Potter, traveling, and going on walks with her son, Miles.

I have associates who shoot senior sessions and weddings on my behalf when I am booked or unavailable. It's also a great way to get the RGP experience on a smaller budget.
