Hello, I'm Rachel

LIFESTYLE + wedding PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Rachel Mital! The life behind Golden and Co. Photography.


I’m a portrait and lifestyle photographer based in Central Pennsylvania, capturing real moments with a natural light approach. Whether we're shooting in your favorite local spot or a destination that means the world to you, I bring a relaxed, heartfelt energy to every session.


My style is all about storytelling and showcasing your life. We are turning candid moments, soft smiles, and in-between glances into timeless photos you'll always  treasure!


Let’s create something meaningful together— photos that feel like you.



Our Story

My photography journey began in 2020, during a time when the world slowed down and reminded us just how fleeting life’s little moments can be. I picked up a Canon Rebel T6 from Kohl's, started photographing my husband playing guitar and our two Golden Retrievers at the time. I found myself falling in love with the magic of capturing real, everyday beauty.


What started as photos of friends and family soon turned into something more. From holiday gatherings to spontaneous backyard sessions, one shoot led to another. In early 2022, I officially launched Golden and Co. Photography! I’ve been humbled and grateful ever since for the people who believed in me, booked me, and helped me grow this dream into a business.


Today, you’ll still find me with a camera in hand— whether I’m chasing golden hour light, documenting a milestone session, or simply capturing the sweet moments of life with my precious daughter, Lizzie, and our three loving Goldens. I believe every season of life is worth remembering, and my goal is to give you images that feel true, timeless, and full of heart.
