Rachel Gabrielse Photography

Rachel Gabrielse Photography Michigan based wedding and portrait photographer. Hello! My name is Rachel Gabrielse. Well, it used to be. Semi sweet chocolate chips are my editing fuel.

On June 20, 2015 I married my high school sweetheart and became Rachel Ponstein. However, my business started four years before then and keeping my maiden name for photography is a special way to hold onto that piece of me. I am the Momma to two sweet babes and have a newly discovered love of coffee (but only with a good dose of creamer). My husband is an insanely handsome and optimistic middle sc

hool teacher. I shop almost exclusively at H&M and have an obsession with high waisted pants and round rim glasses.

Over a decade ago I chose my dress from and I still recommend it to all of my brides. Unparalleled fashion and service.

A soft blue color palette to complement their pastel wedding on a Thursday this June at - one to keep your eyes out for!

If you send me your mood board or wedding color palette, I will gladly scout for locations that will match. I have so much fun finding little hidden gems like this wall.

Tap my story to see where this was really taken. I promise I bring along styling mats, but honestly I don’t even bring them in unless there really are no other options. I just love finding hidden gems like this that perfectly match the wedding color scheme.

And can we talk about this stunning bouquet by (!)

Every year I like to update my highlights to keep my work up to date on this app and every year it is literally impossible to pick 100 favorite images from the last 14+ years. Makes me so insanely grateful going through these. The people I’ve met, the venues I’ve photographed at, the places I’ve traveled - it is all a gift and YOU all make this possible. Thank you will never be enough!

Enjoy that wedding highlight update on my stories today…

A 2016 bride of mine reached out this weekend saying she could not find her ceremony or reception photos and wondered if there was any chance I had them yet - and I do! If this ever happens to you, PLEASE reach out. I try to keep every single (300+) wedding on at least one hard drive in a fire proof safe for this very reason. It’s expensive and can be a hassle but this is the very reason I do it. Your photos are so important to me and I will do everything I can to protect them!

Lots of travel planned for 2025 and I cannot wait to take you all along!

This frame is from our babymoon to Spain a few years ago and is still one of my favorites.

Garrison & Becca on a sunny morning overlooking Chicago. I’ve been timeline planning with them the last few days and their June wedding cannot come soon enough!

I heard yellow is going to be a popular color for weddings this year and I am very much looking forward to that.

If you had told me a year ago that photography would take me on a sister’s trip to Paris in autumn of 2024 I would have had a hard time believing it. Beyond grateful for the places this job takes me and the people it introduces me to. Cheers to 2025 and the adventures to come!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! Ours involved none of our original plans after our son got influenza and pneumonia but goodness did it make my momma heart grateful in a whole new way. Watching a loved one suffer is one of the hardest things and God sent that little baby into this broken world knowing everything he would suffer. What a sacrificial and beautiful love our Father has for us.

Grateful to have been reminded of that truth this Christmas amidst all the prescriptions and Kleenex and so thankful to have our boy up and running around again!

Winter weddings are some of my favorites. Truly, all you need are some hand warmers and a studio rental (or in this case the top floor of and their simple white wall and wood floors).

So thankful for a beautiful new layer of snow for tomorrow - my last wedding of the year!

Some thoughts on marriage in my stories today (and a poll on what I should wear to our vow renewal in Greece) as our ten year anniversary approaches. To sum it up, marriage is awesome and my husband is the best.

Brock & Emma - one of my favorite downtown Detroit wedding days. Classy, timeless, fun and elegant.
