NEWLY ENGAGED!...NOW WHAT?
We have been super blessed to have had the opportunity to be on ALL 3 of the DuBois Life Magazine covers thus far!
Issue 1 showcased photos we took at a Charity Event in our community, as well as an article about the photo session we donated to the 2013 New Year's Baby! Issue 2 was all about our awesome program, "Baby's 1st Day", capturing photos of newborn babies at DRMC.
And for those who live in the 15801 zip code (and about 1 mile around it), did you see the magazine in your mailboxes this past weekend? If yes...did you see our BIG article on the last page?!
In Issue 3, I got to share about one of my greatest passions...WEDDINGS! I have been asked to be a monthly "Community Contributor", writing articles geared towards newly engaged brides! For those planning 2013 & 2014 Weddings, I will be sharing tips, trends, and personal stories from planning my own wedding this past year!!! So stinking excited to share 6+ years of wedding industry experience with the brides of DuBois.
AND for those who don't have a 15801 zip code, you can read the lastest article here on the RA Blog =) Starting with this months article..."Newly Engaged!...Now What?" Read it below the pretty pictures ;)
Details included parasols and hand fans for guests, photos of the couple as children,

“Newly Engaged!...Now What?”

Congratulations to all the beaming brides who recently got engaged on Valentine’s Day! And congrats to those brides with engagements over Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s and every day in between. I remember how exciting and overwhelming that time was in my life.
My name is Rachel Anne, owner of Rachel Anne’s Photography (DuBois, PA), and I was in your shoes just a little over a year ago. My husband and I got married this past July at the DuBois Country Club after a, not nearly long enough, 8-month engagement. You see, we are a wedding photographer/videographer duo, entering our seventh year in the Wedding Industry. So needless to say, we had numerous ideas on how to make our event like no other. And while I would have loved having a few extra months to plan, our wedding day was everything I had hoped for and so much more!
I actually enjoyed the creativity and excitement of it all so much, that I have added Planning Services to our 2013 Wedding Collections at Rachel Anne’s Photography. That means I get to help brides create the wedding of their dreams by providing resources, organization, and inspiration.
With this new title, a growing experience in the industry, and my own wedding under my belt, I am excited to announce that I have been given the opportunity to help you, my beaming brides! Beginning next month, in an ongoing series of articles titled “Wondrous Weddings with Rachel Anne”, I will guide you through the necessary steps in planning your very own, wondrous wedding.
In April’s issue, I can’t wait to share tips with you on developing a theme and style for your wedding, as well as advice on which vendors to book first and what to ask them before you do. But in the meantime, feel free to visit my blog for more advice in my latest post, “4 Quick Tips to Let the Planning Begin!” www.rachelannesphotography.com/blog
Happy Planning!
♥ Rachel Anne
