Buckle up, besties — for our last episode for season 2, we got a juicy one for you. Rachael got hit with two one-star reviews in one weekend… and not from clients 😭. A chill trip to Chattanooga turned into a full-blown investigation involving a cranky waitress, goat milk soap, and a woman named Brooke who seriously messed with the wrong photographer.

In true Rachael fashion, she put on her detective hat 🕵️‍♀️, went full FBI mode, and uncovered exactly who left the fake reviews — and why. Spoiler: it’s even pettier than you think.

We’re breaking down how to handle online hate, why protecting your business reputation matters, and how to laugh through the chaos (with maybe a touch of revenge satisfaction).

If you’ve ever wanted to clap back at a fake review or live out your inner detective fantasy, this one’s for you.

🎧 Tune in for rage, receipts, and sweet vindication.

From a homeless man breaking into a couple’s honeymoon suite, to our favorite speeches, to a groom who was two hours late because he was “just chillin’”… we’ve officially heard it all. Grab your coffee (or as Rachael likes to say your "Cafeitos"), buckle up, and prepare to laugh, cringe, and maybe develop a few new fears.

• The most unhinged inquiry we’ve ever heard: an “explicit newborn session”… for a 60-year-old man 😳🍼

• Second-shooter must-knows (angles, safety shots, how to actually be helpful)

• How to walk the tightrope between letting the day “breathe” and keeping timelines on track without becoming the bad guy
