HUMBOLDT COUNTY PHOTOGRAPHER . MAMA . WIFE . BELIEVER
A HUMBOLDT COUNTY, CA + MILWAUKEE, WI FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHER
for the modern women with classic style.
Hi, I’m Rachel.
I am a Mama photographer located in Humboldt County, California and seasonally serving the Milwaukee, WI area specializing in Newborn Photography, Baby Photography, Maternity Photography, and Family Photography. I offer sessions year-round both in my studio, in my clients homes, and outdoors. I specialize in creating custom archival museum quality artwork built to last for 100+ years featuring images of your family for your home.
If you’re anything like me your phone is filled with hundreds of candid photos of your sweet kiddos and husband with a grand total of maybe 5 (decent) photos of me with my kiddo or of my crazy bunch. Because let’s face it, Dad doesn’t exactly understand the meaning of “good angles” (insert eye roll). Welcome to the club, Mama!
My job is to capture your beautiful family, right now in this moment. Quick before you blink and they are all grown up and driving off to college! And yes; I will get your good angles. I capture both candid and posed photos that you, your family, and your little ones will treasure forever and pass on to their little ones. Ok, this Mama is crying now!

WHAT MY CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“She helped us so much with posing”
We absolutely loved our session with Rachel! She helped so much with posing and allowing us to be ourselves to just enjoy the moment. Truly a great experience!! Can’t wait for next time!
“The end results are STUNNING!”
From idea to final product, the whole process was smooth and easy. Rachel had excellent recommendations on how to prepare and what to wear for the best pictures. She was upbeat, encouraging, and patient with my girls throughout the photo shoot. Her studio has beautiful lighting and is spotless. She was flexible with adding in ideas we had last minute. The end results are STUNNING! I could not be happier with how she has captured my family and daughters. Absolutely recommend her to anyone!
“from START to FINISH, Rachel provided excellent service”
Let me say that from START to FINISH, Rachel provided excellent service as we talked about color and outfit selections, what things I would or wouldn’t like, keeping things comfortable during photos, her staying patient throughout the shoot while managing 2 littles’ personalities and the post photo shoot process including turn around time of viewing and choosing favorites after editing completed.
Thank you Rachel Harmeling Photography for capturing these memories that we will cherish forever.
