In addition to studying photography at university, she has over 25 years shooting experience, and has worked with a wide variety of clients, including: Chorlton FM radio station, Didsbury Arts Network, Manchester University, Kosmos restaurant, The Art of Meze restaurant, Iguana Bar, Public-i, Squirk Media, and Zombie Aid.

She is regularly engaged to shoot at popular music venues, to cover both special events and regular nights.
She has staged many exhibitions of her work, with current installations (winter 2012/2013) being at The Bar, Chorlton, and The Jellyfish Rooms, Manchester.

Past work has included being the company photographer for an independent film company, resident photographer for respected music venue Iguana, Chorlton, and the studio photographer for Chorlton Arts Radio.

Her more unusual event photographer commissions have included a Pagan hand-fasting ceremony, and an invasion of Manchester Arndale by 'zombies!'

A keen supporter of chartiable causes, Rachael also covers a substantial number of benefit events, and is happy to occasionally charge for these at a reduced special rate at her discretion. However, PLEASE NOTE: she is unable to offer her services free of charge.

Rachael's approach is primarily candid and spontaneous, focusing on capturing natural moments, and attaining unposed shots in which her subjects are relaxed and happy to just be themselves. To achieve this, her shooting style is entirely informal, and she strives to maintain a secondary and unobtrusive presence at all her professional engagements.

She works primarily in Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Lancashire and Derbyshire.

Prices for all commissions are available upon request.
