Rachel Bayne Photography bio picture
  • Welcome to Rachel Bayne Photography…

    I have loved photography since I was at least in the 3rd grade and got my first camera for my birthday that year. I took that little 210 film camera everywhere I went and have been capturing the world around me ever since. I love being a photographer. From weddings to families to senior portraits... it's all so much fun! If you have a question, click on the Contact button above. I hope you enjoy my work as much as I do. -Rachel Bayne

Vanessa and Shawana: Engagement

Vanessa and Shawana are getting married this News Year’s Eve and I just can’t wait! For their engagement session I met them down in Puyallup at Casa Mia Italian Restaurant where they had their first date. From there we hit some train tracks and then a stop at Decoursey Park where a bunch of ducks and other birds were sorely disappointed when we didn’t have any bread. Vanessa and Shawana are so adorable together and I can’t wait to ring in the new year with them!

Jimmy and Paula: March 6, 2010

Jimmy and Paula could not have asked for a better day for their March wedding… The weather was unbelievably warm and sunny, not your typical Seattle winter day. Having such a sweet couple and their friendly wedding party (except Duncan!) made the day even better. I hope everyone had as much fun as I did!

Jimmy and Paula: Engagement

I met Jimmy and Paula at the Rainbow Run putt putt course for their engagement session which is where they had their first date Jimmy claims he got a hole in one on their date but Paula says mulligans don’t count on a putt putt course! Jimmy and Paula were so much fun to chat with and I can’t wait for their wedding in March.

This is the hole that Jimmy claims he got a hole in one on!

Brian and Kelsey: Engagement Session

My buddy Brian is getting married to his gorgeous fiancée next May in Alaska, where they both grew up. We did this engagement session at Bellingham’s Boulevard Park… one of my favorite places to go when the weather is nice. Brian is such a funny guy… he’s always laughing about something so it was pretty easy to get him to smile! Check out the cute old couple that was walking on Taylor Dock as we were taking some photos… I’m also loving the Tom Brady and Randy Moss jerseys!
