I am working on building a new website...

www.rachellelemasterphotography.webs.com

Check back soon!

Possible Changes... need some advice.

2009-02-25T00:12:00.003-05:00

I received a phone call today about being the Track photographer for a local Cart Racing Track. I just have to decide if I want to do it and call them back. If I do that it would take away my Friday evenings and occasional Saturday's for special shows. It would be a new direction for myself and the photography business. Guess I am just looking for some feedback.

So racers, do you normally buy photos you are in? Would you buy photos? What about other photo products like Magnets of your favorite images, or even photo keychains??? Think if I do this I will also offer photo CD's and an end of year DVD Slideshow.... Just looking for some feedback. Thanks in advance!

Portraits from Heather and Keith's session

2008-12-18T02:12:00.004-05:00

Meet Heather, Keith, Kyler, Hunter and Reese. Heather and I went to High School together a LONG time ago. Through the power of the internet we have been able to reconnect and I have done a couple photo shoots with her wonderful kids. I was thrilled when she contacted me about doing their holiday photos! This whole family is so much fun and I honestly don't think anyone can make me laugh as much as these 2 boys... they are fantastic. So here are just a sample from the session :)

I am horrible at this... lol.

2008-12-17T11:55:00.007-05:00

So it has been a while since I posted a blog and I want to say that I am sorry. Things have been very busy with holiday portraits, etc. So thank you to all of my wonderful clients for keeping me busy this holiday season. I have one last holiday session to do this afternoon and then it is time for my mini-vacation from work while I enjoy the holiday season with my family. I hope that you all do the same.
So just as a quick update I am going to post a couple of my favorite Holiday Portraits. Enjoy and as always feel free to leave some comments.

Thank you!

2008-11-25T20:46:00.003-05:00

I just wanted to say Thank you to everyone who came out this past weekend to have Holiday Portraits taken. I really appreciate you all for your support. I know it is a small room but I hope that you are all happy with your photos. I will be posting some up here soon so keep an eye out for that.

Thank you all again!

Tyanne and Justin Wedding

2008-09-29T15:32:00.002-04:00

Despite the rain on Saturday I had the sheer pleasure of photographing Tyanne and Justin's wedding. It was a beautiful, non-traditional, outdoor ceremony complete with champaign toast at the end. The rain held of just long enough to complete the ceremony and get the guests back to their cars. This is just the beginning of their photos. Let me know what you think.

Rockville Bridge- Prints Available

2008-09-01T18:24:00.003-04:00

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rockville Bridge, at the time of its completion in 1902, was the longest stone masonry arch railroad viaduct in the world.^[1] Constructed between 1900 - 1902 by the Pennsylvania Railroad, it has forty-eight 70-foot spans, for a total length of 3,820 feet (1,164 m).^[1]

The bridge crosses the Susquehanna River about 5 miles (8 km) north of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The eastern end is in Rockville and the western end is just south of Marysville.

I love this bridge. It has been photographed and drawn at so many angles I had a hard time deciding where to shoot from. I picked the south side of the bridge because some of the original pillars are still standing as you can see above. My Great-Grandfather helped build the original bridge so it does have some personal, family history too. Please let me know if you like them.

New Scenic Photos Available

2008-08-31T19:32:00.003-04:00

A little behind

2008-08-28T19:35:00.001-04:00

I just want to apologize for being a little behind in editing. When my computer crashed I lost my editing program and am waiting for the upgrade to get here so I can install it and get back to work. **hugs** THANK YOU to everyone for being so patient. I should be up and running in the next few days.

Reba Round 2 at Fort Hunter

2008-08-14T08:42:00.003-04:00

What a fabulous shoot. That is all I have to say. Comments are always appreciated!

Just an update

2008-08-14T08:40:00.001-04:00

Last evening I had a blast doing Staci's 2nd set of Senior pics. We came up with some fun shots! I can't wait to post some of them. My default pic is from that session. Silly me was in the river shooting her, squatted down and put my ass right into the water, lol. So then we thought it would be fun for me to go back into the water and let Staci take a picture of my wet pant legs and wet butt. lol. It was a gorgeous evening to do photos and while we may not have gotten to everything we wanted to we did get a LOT done. I even got to have a national Geo moment while we were shooting. There were a ton of Cray fish around this one rock.. it was so gross it was facinating. I am sure we will laugh about it for a while. But we shot for just over an hour even with the "killer crabs". I will try to get some pics up soon. I promise to load some new pics either today or tomorrow :)

Wonderful Weekend

2008-08-04T13:43:00.002-04:00

Hi everyone! Well I have a wonderful weekend of photo shoots. First with the Witmer's and their foster children. We had a little drama there but we got some really nice shots. Then Reba's 2nd session for her senior pics. They are fabulous I can't wait to finish editing them. Sunday was Staci's first round of senior pics. We did ones of her with her dog, her car and her boyfriend. The weather was perfect. I haven't started to edit those yet but I am sure there are some wonderful shots in there. So look for more photos to be up soon!

First Blog

2008-07-21T13:20:00.003-04:00

Well I guess I need to start somewhere. My name is Rachelle and this is what I hope to be my Photography Blog :). I am 27 years old, happily married, mommy to a wonderful litttle boy. I am just in the process of starting out in the photography business. I live in a small town north of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania with my husband, our son, our 2 German Shorthaired Pointers, 1 cat and about 1/2 dozen fish. Needless to say it can be quite a zoo in our house from time to time.

Right now I am focusing mainly on Outdoor Photography and Wedding Photography. I love doing portraits of family's and children although I have also done engagement sessions, infant portraits and scenic photography as well.
