Rachel Hudson was hand picked from Heaven for me! She was an answer to prayers I didn’t even know I had. Two years ago in February, Rachel and I met for the first time at a Kylee Ann Workshop. Little did I know Rachel had been following me since the beginning of my business and had been impressed to sign up for my workshop. With a check and a snickers bar, she dropped off her deposit in a sweet card. At the workshop she stayed to help clean up till the very end. She had bought everything on my store, and my sister’s too. Rachel was my biggest fan, and we had no idea that in a few months I would be HER biggest fan.
After working as my nanny/assistant/cleaner/home-packer/drape-hanger/mailer for several months and helping me run a couple Kylee Ann Sleepovers, we decided to bring her on to Kylee Ann Studios as a photographer. Exactly a year ago, she STARTED shooting under my brand. Since then she has shot 50 Kylee Ann Weddings and grown our business to shoot three times as many brides as the year before. Not only has she helped take Kylee Ann Studios to where it is now, but she’s made me a better person. A better friend, business owner, sister, wife and Bachelor watcher. She is my best friend and anyone who knows what a blessing she is to everyone around her.
TODAY is her birthday! The big 2-5! So now we can FINALLY rent a car when we go on destination workshops and weddings. haha! In honor of her birthday last Friday, I wanted to highlight the
(some of the) BEST of #KAPbyRachel 2016
pulled from her blogs with the most views this year. But with 50 brides, its impossible to truly narrow it down to the best of the best. She killed it! For more, scroll through all her blogs here.
