My new website!

I've been working on this website for a really long time...too long actually.  But I finally got it up and running!  I am not web savvy at all but Showit makes it so easy to create your own website.  Please check it out and I would love to hear what you think of it!

Thanks so much! <3 Raquel

The Other Side of the Camera

I've been working on a new website that I am so excited to get up and running and I needed some shots of myself to use. This weekend I got to spend a day out shooting with Megan Welker. It was our first time meeting and we totally hit it off. Megan was so much fun to work with and has such a bright future ahead of her! I can't wait to see what she captured!

Here is a sneak peek from our shoot:

And here is a shot I got of Megan shooting (love her rain boots!):

A couple of weeks ago I received a phone call from The Knot magazine and was told that I was chosen as one of the top ten wedding photographers in the Central Valley. I was both shocked and honored! I heard today that the magazine is out so I am definitely going to run out and get one first thing tomorrow! I'll post pics!

PS - Today is my little sister's 25th birthday!!! Happy Birthday Melissa! Love ya tons!

Back to editing...

Cousins

I got to spend today with some of my fave people--my sister and my cousins. We decided to have some fun and have a little photo shoot like we used to do when we were younger! I think it's every girl's fantasy to get dressed up and be a model for a day! We had so much fun. I love these girls!

Here is my cousin Cherie. I am so glad she moved to Tulare not too long ago so I have someone to hang out with. She is getting married this fall to my husband Jason's cousin and they are an amazing couple.



This is my little sister Melissa. She is one of my bestest friends. I can always count on her to tell it like it is but she also has the biggest heart. I love you and miss you sooooo much!



This is my cousin Denise. She attends SFSU and I couldn't be prouder to call her my cousin. She is a beautiful person inside and out. Things just aren't the same without Denise around!




I even got to get on the other side of the lense for a couple shots too!


I think I am so lucky to have such wonderful girlfriends in my life and am so glad we had some fun taking these pictures that we'll have to look at when we're all growing old together! Love you guys!
