Thank you for visiting my site. My passion for photography began shortly after my mother passed away after a long battle with lung cancer. She was an award winning  professional photographer and had a unique vision for capturing moments in time. I often feel as if she's now guiding me in my own creative endeavors.

I shoot with professional digital equipment. I feel this gives me the flexibility to enhance or retouch images or create special digital effects if that's what the customer wants. I also feel that that it gives me the ability to offer faster turn around time for proof viewing.

Please use the links to the left to view specific galleries. If I shot an event for you, it will be in the Events gallery, and if I shot a portrait for you, it will be in the Portraits gallery, etc. If you'd just like to browse, please feel free to visit the Main gallery and have a look around. You can also visit my other online gallery located at http://www.pbase.com/rrains

To request information or to check my availability for a photo shoot, please use the Request Info link at the top of this page. Also, be sure to visit the Links page for more fantastic images from other photographers.
