project serve & elite x-trainer

two incredible fitness professionals in austin have joined forces to make an unstoppable duo. check out bobby jones, pro beach volleyball player and instructor, with project serve, and barron jackson, certified personal trainer, with x-train. here are some recent advertising shots i did for them.

My name is Barron Jackson and I’m the Founder and Elite X-Trainer at the X-Train facility and I have recently had some outstanding photos taken by Raychel. I truly believe that she has a amazing talent in photography. She is fun to work with, easy to talk to and very professional. I know that the next time I’m looking for another photo shoot I will be calling Raychel. Keep up the great work!!!

My name is Bobby Jones, and I play Pro Beach Volleyball and run Project: Serve, a community outreach company in North Austin. We specialize in helping young people reach their dreams through sport, music, and leadership. Raychel recently helped us get ready for a gala where Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Austin was the major benefactor. Raychel took her time with us and creatively helped us produce a campaign that ultimately raised $1000.00 for the BBBS Charity!! She was fast, honest, and so much fun to work with. We could not have pulled it off with out her. She is amazing and we look forward to working with her soon!

roaring fork, austin

i worked with Jill DiMarco and roaring fork for the 2009 tabletop performance awards. i particularly enjoyed this shoot not only because i was able to capture the artistry in the food and presentation, but also because i was able to blend it all together with the ambiance of the entire restaurant and its surrounds.
