Rachel Ludwig Photography | Abbotsford Portrait and Wedding Photographer bio picture

Welcome to Rachel Ludwig Photography!

Come on in, grab a cup of coffee (or in my case, that would be a non-fat, sugar-free vanilla, earl grey tea misto) and take a browse through my site. This is where I share images from recent sessions, post updates about Rachel Ludwig Photography, and sometimes I even sneak in a few pictures of my own family.

Want to know a little bit more about me? I've been married to my husband Tim for 11 years, and we have three loud, crazy and fun kids: Ethan (7), Arden (3) and Hudson (1). I also love to take pictures. I'm a lifestyle portrait and wedding photographer based in Abbotsford, BC and I photograph a little bit of everything, including babies, bellies, families, engagements, boudoir and weddings.

Oh....and don't be shy! You can leave a comment, pop me an email or use the contact form at any time. I promise I don't bite. :) I'd love to hear from you!

Abbotsford Engagement Session | Katy & Anthony

I know Katy is anxiously waiting to see some images from their engagement session, and since Hudson has been sleeping so nicely for me during the day, I figured I’d better post a few pictures for them!

Katy is Tim’s youngest sister, and she just happens to be getting married to Anthony, who is such a fabulous guy. Katy was a huge help this summer and did some babysitting so I could get work done. She may never have kids after dealing with my two rugrats (LOL!) but my kids absolutely love her. Arden calls her “T” and screams her version of Katy’s name excitedly whenever she sees her. Anthony completely wowed Ethan with a ‘magic’ trick involving a dish-towel and toothpick…so he’s officially cool in Ethan’s eyes now. Do aunts and uncles get much cooler than that? We’re looking forward to their wedding next April!

On a different note, I still have some more pictures to share from Darlene & Larry’s wedding and of course some more baby Hudson pictures too. A big thank you to all my clients who have been so patient with me during the last few weeks of my pregnancy and now that Hudson’s here.

Here are some of my faves from Katy and Anthony’s session. I’ve been eying this location which happens to be right near by house. It had a bit of everything all in one spot, which was so handy for my 9-month pregnant self (less walking!!). I don’t know why I hadn’t gone their before…I guess I was saving it just for them :)

When I told them to head out into the field, Anthony took matters into his own hands when Katy got worried about what might be hiding under all that grass :)

One of my faves:

How perfect was this location? I love all the color and texture:

We were in my truck and ready to leave when I spotted this sign…I’m so happy we stopped!:

Announcing Hudson James

So many of you may know that I was anxiously awaiting the arrival of number three to our family, and he’s finally here!

Hudson James Ludwig was born on October 15th at 6:20AM weighing in at 9lbs and 21.5in long.

I am going to be out of commission for the next week or two as we settle in…I will catch up on outstanding emails etc, as soon as I can.

And because I can’t resist, here are a few of my favorite images from the last two days:

He loves having his hands near his face. I think he’s going to be a thumb sucker like my other two.

Yes, he definitely has some chub on him!

A tiny little grin :)

Some new baby prop stuff for shoots…had to test them out with my own little guy first.

Big yawn:

Getting to know Dad:

I couldn’t resist posting this one, it cracks me up :)
