Rachel was such an amazing photographer for our wedding day!!! She was so great and communicated so well with us for our engagement shoot and that translated so well on our wedding day as well. It rained all day for our wedding and Rachel did such a great job with working with us and the weather to get us some great shots and handled our wild wedding party and families and helped us get all the photos we wanted on our day. We recommend Rachel so much!!!

Rachel P. and Michelle were wonderful to work with. They incorporated all of our requests into their schedule and made sure to capture the best moments at the reception. We were a little sad that it rained throughout our wedding day, but the two of them pulled us aside the second it stopped raining so we could get some outdoor photos. Hoenstly, I feel they went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend them and Bellagala as photographers for your wedding.

We couldn't have asked for a better team to capture the most special day of our lives! From start to finish, our experience with Rachel and David was nothing short of amazing. What truly sets them apart is their infectious enthusiasm and positive energy. They made the entire process so enjoyable and stress-free. We felt comfortable and relaxed throughout the day, and it's evident in the candid and genuine moments they captured. Not only were they great professionals, but they also felt like friends celebrating alongside us. Their dedication to their craft and their commitment to making our day special was evident in every interaction we had. If you're looking for photographers who are not only talented but also a pleasure to work with, Rachel and David are the perfect choice. They helped make our wedding day unforgettable, and we can't thank them enough. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of exceptional photography and a wonderful experience.

Our wedding experience at the Van Dusen was magical. Our Coordinator, Monica was responsive and helpful. The DJ, Brad, was incredibly professional yet knew how to host a party. Our photographers, Tom and Rachel took the time and effort to make sure we got the beautiful photos of family and friends in the venue. Thank you to all staff!

We had Rachel as our wedding and engagement photographer and she was amazing! She is so easy to work with and able to go with the flow. All of our guests even commented on how amazing she was! She made us so comfortable and had great ideas for different photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

Rachel from Bellagala was truly amazing! We could not have asked for a better photographer. She went above and beyond in getting all of the shots we wanted and had some awesome ideas as well. It was the middle of December and freezing cold, but she still stayed outside to get us the shots we wanted. We highly recommend Rachel and Bellagala for any event!

Rachel from Bellagala was amazing! She was both our engagement and wedding photographer and did a great job of capturing not only my husband and I, but our guests to. She (and her second shooter) also did a fantastic job of sticking to our “shot list”, which allowed us to get group photos with everyone we wanted to. After speeches and before music, she also had everyone come to the dance floor to get a group shot, which then lead into the dancing portion of the wedding perfectly.

The photos that Rachel took for our wedding exceeded our expectations! We were so happy with how friendly, patient and helpful Rachel was throughout the entire process. She had great ideas and suggestions for us and helped us stay on schedule the day-of. Rachel was also great at following up leading up to the wedding. We were very pleased.

Bellagala was a great company to work with for our wedding! We loved working with Rachel (photographer) and Adam (videographer). They both did an amazing job and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Highly recommend!
Kaylee & William E
We highly recommend using Bellagala for your photography. We adored our photographer, Rachel. She was professional and kind and very patient with us even when unexpected misfortunes happened such as pollen getting all over my dress! She was wonderful and did a great job with all of the photos she took and we cannot wait to see them. She even had my husband and I do sunset photos which wasn’t in the timeline. We appreciated her so much and know you will not regret hiring Bellagala and their team!

Rachel did our wedding and she was amazing! She was very organized and had the place she would be all down to make sure she didn't miss any shots. She was professional and fun! She even scoped out our area prior and found a dirt road to sweep us away to for extra photos. We loved her! Highly recommend!!!
Stephanie & Nick R
We were so happy to get two Bellagala photographers for our wedding so they could capture all angles of our First Look. They split up after our ceremony so one could get photos of our guests during cocktail hour and one could join us with our wedding party in the limo on our way back to the venue. It worked out so perfectly and Rachel and David were so much fun to work with! They gave us so many amazing posed photos, while also catching the "in-between" moments when nobody was posing but special moments were captured. We're so happy with our photos!
Ariel & Danny F
The photography package is reasonable in price and we got more than enough photos throughout the day and evening. We have so many favorite photos! The photographers were awesome as well! They were happy to come with us in a separate car to another location for photos and were helpful when trying to get the best shots.

We had an amazing experience with Bellagala. We decided to postpone our celebration last minute due to COVID, but still get married, and Rachel P was so enthusiastic and ready to pivot with us! We ended up getting married in our home. She took some incredible pictures inside and outside, and made us feel relaxed, even though neither of us like getting pictures taken. We have gorgeous pictures of everyone who was there, and she was so thoughtful and kind the whole day. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Rachel again. On top of a wonderful photographer, Bellagala worked quickly with us when we decided to change our date. Jocelyn, our DJ, was flexible and able to reschedule, and when Rachel wasn't also able to photograph our celebration, she recommended someone else. All around a great experience during a very stressful time.
Amber & Derek T
Rachel P was excellent with Bellagala. She was so flexible and rolled with things, she also made us feel super comfortable and really captured our special day. I would recommend her to anyone. She was a lot of fun and still took charge and kept everything moving.
Amber & Derek T
Rachel P was wonderful, she totally captured the vibe of our day and made things fun. She was super easy to work with and had great energy. She kind of hard to take charge as we got tight on time and she handled it all in stride. She was a lot of fun to work with and made me feel very comfortable.
Kelly & Adam G
We hired Bellagala for our photographers and DJ and are so glad we did! Rachel Parsell, our photographer, was AMAZING. She did such a great job with choosing where to take pictures at our venue, getting our groups together and posing everyone. She was so professional and fun! HIGHLY recommend her!!
Our DJ, Matt was also amazing! Our dance floor was always going and our guests had SO MUCH FUN! Matt was personable and friendly. We definitely recommend requesting him!!! Thank you so much Bellagala.

We needed a photographer at the last minute within two weeks of the wedding and we were assigned to have Rachel Parsell as our photographer. She was super friendly, we felt comfortable with her, she was super helpful, professional, had great interpersonal communication and very kind. I would recommend her to anyone on their big day!!! Our photos turned out to be beautiful and I am so grateful that she got to be apart of our special day.
