Halgerson
Meet the Artist
I believe photography is more than a service, it is an art form that preserves legacy. With a refined editorial eye and a dedication to detail, I create imagery that feels timeless, elegant, and deeply personal. My approach is both intentional and intuitive: capturing not only how a moment looks, but how it feels. Whether documenting a wedding, a personal brand, or familial milestone, I step into your world with discretion and artistry, crafting images that echo the grace of heirlooms and the intimacy of memory.
Meet Rachael Halgerson, the Founder & Educator Behind Rhody Ray
As the founder of Rhody Ray, I’ve built a brand that blends luxury with authenticity. My clients value sophistication, emotional depth, and an effortless experience: from our first conversation to the final curated collection. Rooted in both editorial artistry and heartfelt connection, my work is designed for those who appreciate the rare and the exquisite. To me, photography is not just about documenting a day, it is about creating art that becomes part of your family’s story for generations.
My Approach to Photography
Your story
deserves to be
captured as
art.
My New England roots mixed with the Midwest charm creates a touch of elegancy that feels cozy and lived-in.
I have a sincere love for harsh and direct sunlight. No shade? No problem.
