As a passionate traveler and photographer I'm fueled by love, the love for people, cultures, moments, and the magic they create. My journey takes me to new places, capturing the beauty of connections and the stories that unfold in every corner of the world.
I'M RAQUEL KING PHOTO and I travel the world to document LOVE STORIES.
I’m here to capture the real moments while guiding you with natural poses that feel effortless. Whether you’re celebrating with 200 guests or saying "I do" in an epic destination, your love story deserves to be documented beautifully. Let’s create timeless images that bring you right back to the magic of your day!
Serving authentic, vibrant couples and specialize in large celebrations & destination weddings.
The most meaningful moments aren’t always the obvious ones. A fleeting glance, a deep breath before ‘I do,’ the way light falls on a quiet embrace—these are the details that tell your story. I move with you, watch for the unscripted, and capture the moments you didn’t even realize were happening, so you can see your day the way it truly felt.
Some moments slip by unnoticed—the way your hands find each other, the quiet tear before a vow, the joy in movement. I see them, I capture them, so you can relive them forever.

Raquel is quite literally a rare GEM in the world of photography. The second I came across her work through a mutual friend, I knew she would be the one to capture our engagement photos, wedding day, and hopefully many milestones in the future. Not only is her style of photography crisp, clean, classic, and timeless, she is KIND, so accommodating, and just overall radiates joy and positivity, which during your wedding day is crucial. I believe wedding photos are worth the investment, and I can say that Raquel is worth it!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! From the moment we met Raquel, we knew we were in great hands. She was incredibly sweet and easy to work with, but her sense of humor made us feel comfortable and relaxed all day, especially since we’re both camera-shy. She had an amazing ability to capture those perfect, candid moments without making us feel posed or awkward.

Raquel is a great communicator, comes organized with a game plan, but is a true creative and is always looking for spontaneous shots to capture the essence of your special day. To say we were thrilled with our wedding gallery would be an understatement, she absolutely wowed us!
