Thanks 'B' Family!

I did this photo shoot nearly two weeks ago! That will give you an idea of how swamped I have been lately. Regardless, I am having fun doing all that I am doing and especially had a great time working with the 'B' family. You really will never meet nicer people in your life. The morning we shot was really cold and I didn't hear one complaint out of any of them, they just did what I asked and smiled! What more can you ask for?
This was also my first shoot with my new assistant. He did a great job at holding lighting gear in place for me, making the family smile (more like laugh) and keeping things comfortable and fun. Did I mention he is really good looking too?!
Yes, my husband has joined the Rahne Drop team and will be accompanying me on my shoots to keep things fun and have a second pair of hands and eyes to catch things I may miss while behind the camera. I really wish I got a picture of him holding my reflector while doing the splits over a river to get this shot. There are always good laughs when Sherman is around and I love him for it!

Short Notice: Good Cause


I have been so swamped lately and have totally neglected my blog. But this is a great cause and I didn't want to miss the opportunity to get the word out (even if it is such short notice).
Tonight (Monday 7th) at the Maple Valley Food Bank I am doing FREE photos with Santa from 6-9pm. With so many families in need this year, the Food Bank is in greater need of food and money donations. We are partnering up with Michael Dixon at American Family Insurance, The Realty Company Skyline Properties, Mortgage Master of Maple Valley, and 5 Stones Financial Group to help fulfill the needs of the Food Bank. But most importantly, we need YOU! Any little bit would make a great difference. It is a fun night and the best Santa around. Bring as many people as can fit in your mini van! I hope to see you there!
