Here is WHY I do what I do… 1. FOR MY FAMILY My husband and our 3 crazy kiddos. I know this is cliche, but my family is what my entire life revolves around. I wouldn’t be who I am today without them. God has richly blessed us and I am so thankful. PC: Lanie Kay...

There's nothing better than ending a family photo session in the almond blossom orchard and stepping out into a beautiful sunset.  #rachaelvenemaphotography #sunset #sunsetsilhouette #almondblossomphotosession #almondblossoms #familyphotos #almondorchard #blossomphotos #sunburst

Almond Blossom season is here! As you drive aroun Almond Blossom season is here!  As you drive around the valley you can see the trees starting to bloom.  It's quite amazing how quickly they are here and in two to maybe three weeks, they will be gone.  I encourage you to take a drive around the Central Valley and check out the almond blossoms.  It's quite a stunning site to see!  I'm looking forward to the portrait sessions I have this weekend in the almond blossoms.  #rachaelvenemaphotography #rvpstudio #riponca #almondblossoms #centralvalley #blossoms #centralvalleyblossoms #riponcablossoms #blossomsinthecentralvalley #centralvalleyalmondblossoms #northerncaliforniaalmondblossoms #almondblossomseason #almondblossombloom #blooms
It is always my goal to allow a person to be comfo It is always my goal to allow a person to be comfortable during their photo session.  There is nothing comfortable about having a camera in your face. When the photographer helps you relax and not think so much about being photographed, that is when a photo can be created of you that shows you and your personality.  I always have people laugh while I'm taking their photo so their eyes smile.  When the person's whole face smiles and reaches their eyes, you can actually see their personality in their photo.  Check out the beautiful business portrait I created for Angie.  It truly is a joy to create a photo that someone loves of themselves that they can use to promote their business.  If you need a quote on insurance... contact Angie.  You'll receive the best service ever. If you need a professional business portrait, read Angie’s review and then contact our studio.  I promise the experience will go above and beyond your expectations.  @gigi_rb #businessportrait #rvpheadshots #rvpstudio #riponcaphotographystudio #centralvalleyphotographystudio #businessmarketing #beautifulyou #youarebeautiful #loveyourself #smile #headshot #marketing #brand
Since the weather outside is cloudy and raining, I Since the weather outside is cloudy and raining, I thought I'd post this photo of my girl to bring some sunshine and smiles your way.  She was at the studio with me and had this cute dress on.  We didn't do anything fancy with her hair.. just left it as is.  We laughed and she twirled and made all these funny facial expressions.  This girl is my strong willed child.  What I've come to realize is that she is a gift to me, even though there are days that are so hard.  What's interesting is, for others she is quite a delight.  So every day, even though I don't always get to see it.. I will try to focus on how her eyes sparkle when she is excited about something.  How she waves at me over and over after I drop her off at school.  How she loves being creative and having fun.  How much she loves her friends and people.  She's an amazing little girl that is growing up right before my eyes.  The past 8 years have gone by so fast, that I feel like I'm trying to pull back on the reigns on time to make it slow down.  So enjoy her big smile to bring some sunshine to your day.  #rachaelvenemaphotography #myabbydoo #mygirl #strongwilledchild #delightinyourchildren #instamom #motherhood #mother #riponca #rvpstudio #rvpchildren #studioportraits #riponcaphotographystudio #studioportraits #delightinyourchild #sunshine #rainbows #brightsmiles #smile #happy
As a business owner, I am always thinking about th As a business owner, I am always thinking about the purpose of my business.  Many might think, well you're a photographer so you're meant to take beautiful photos.  Yes, that is true but that is just one piece to the purpose behind my business.  Others might say.. well, it's to provide for your family.  Yep, that's another reason of why I work, but I want my business to be so much more than that.  I truly believe each of us were put on this earth for a reason.  For me, that reason is so much more than doing things just for me and my family.  The purpose behind my business is to create beautiful photographic art for every single client to enjoy every day in their home.  Also, the purpose behind what I do is to give back to my community and others.  Giving back can be done is so many ways.  Here are a few groups that I enjoy being a part of: @wewripon  @gardenjoy_  @riponchamberofcommerce  @thegoldhopeproject  Living "Your Brightest Life" to me is having a purpose that goes beyond myself and my family.  This can mean so many things for each of us as individuals.  We each have gifts that are being used for a purpose beyond ourselves.  Right now it might be focusing on your children while they are young.  It could mean giving back by serving in your church or helping with your child's school.  You can also find a group that gives back in an area that you are passionate about.  I would encourage you to think about ways you are involved in your community.  If you are needing to find ways to get involved, just ask around and I know you'll find an area where your gifts can be used.  I encourage you to start living "Your Brightest Life" today. 
Today I heard someone talk about community.. If you feel like you don't have community, then go out and create it for yourself.  Just find people that enjoy similar interests and you can create that community.  #rachaelvenemaphotography #riponca #givingback #yourbrightestlife #youhaveagift #agreaterpurpose #purposedrivenlife #yourpurpose #useyourgifts #loveothers #community #createyourcommunity #riponstrong
