Welcome to Rachel Sakakeeny Photography | DFW, Texas

Gorgeous skin tones.

True-to-life colors.

Captured in a way that is effortlessly you.

Your photography experience shouldn’t be nerve-wracking or boring—and you shouldn’t look at your images and wonder why you look so different in your photos than you do in real life.

Because let’s face it: You deserve better than a one-size-fits-all approach.

You deserve a photographer who takes the time to get to know you on a personal level.

Someone who doesn’t just stand there and tell you how to pose but who elevates your natural movements in a way that feels true to your story.

Someone who understands that beautiful photos aren’t manufactured or forced but experienced in the moment.

Someone like me.

Hey there,

I’m Rachel.

For me, photography isn’t just another job; it’s a passion that drives everything that I do. When I reflect on my life, I realize that some of my most cherished, life-changing experiences are now nothing more than faded memories. And as much as I hate to admit it, those memories continue to fade as time goes on.

Looking back, I wish that someone had documented those special moments for me.

I don’t want you to experience the same regret.

I am driven by the belief that memories matter, and as a photographer, it is truly an honor to craft images that tell your unique story. Because photography isn’t about clicking a shutter button and moving on to the next shot—it’s about preserving a precious moment in time in a way that feels natural and authentic to you and your life.

Because, at the end of the day, you won’t get this moment in time back. But those photos that make you feel all over again?

They’ll last a lifetime.

“Not only did Rachel take the most exquisite photos that captured our family perfectly, she made the entire experience fun!

Rachel spent time before our shoot asking about our family and what was most important for our photos, putting my mind at ease knowing she had all the information to deliver every image we asked for - and more! We could not be more pleased with Rachel and highly recommend you work with her for your family photos.”

Have you ever received photos back, only to think, “That doesn’t even look like me” or “Why is my skin so orange??” 

I have, and trust me, I didn’t particularly like looking like an Oompa Loompa. 

Regardless of whether you have dark, light, or mixed skin, I guarantee that your images will reflect your natural essence, because you deserve to look as good in your photos as you do in person.
