Me a Canadian Girl, and Mike a Florida Boy met all the way on a different continent! It was meant to be! We have now been married for 4 years and run a little coffee shop in Flagler Beach FL. We are passionate entrepreneurs, we love people, we love God, and we really love coffee. I can't wait to tell you more when we hang out at your shoot ;)

here's my story

Hey it's me rach!

Nice to meet you, I am Rach! That Canadian gal who traveled around the world, fell in love with an American boy while living in South Africa. Together we now run a little coffee shop in Flagler Beach, Florida called Yes Coffee. I've had quite the wild ride, and I couldn't be happier with how my life has turned out. I get to live creativley, freely and serving my community! What else do you want to know?

my favorite drink..


oooo okay first things first, an oat flat white and duhhh tequila :) you just can't go wrong with a good marg! But after that I love trying new things and tasting different flavors! Growing up in the Okanagan in canada gave me an appreciation for wine, craft beer, ciders, and good coffee! So bring it on!

if I could go to one place and why...


I have always been obsessed with Paris, the idea that I have of it at least, fresh baking, eating on the streets with friends and lovers... the art, the clothes, the music, the lifestyle, I love it all, especially the croissants! But I could never go to Paris without going to Italy to the Amalfi coast and immersing in their culture as well...so many places to go and to see



some random new passion...


I have found a passion for fitness over the last few years, so if I am not at the coffee shop or editing your photos I am probably at the gym, learning a new skill, lifting a barbell or doing a metcon. Yea I do that stuff! #strong #crossfit
