Rachelle Steele

Bio:

Rachelle's passionate photography comes from a place born of her Northern California mountains and 10 years sailing the seas in the Navy. It was after her time in the service that she turned to her original love of photography and learned how to express the deep emotions that take life in a veterans heart. She is most known for dynamic black and white environmental portraiture and cherishes the conversation with the unknown viewer. Many miles of road running are devoted to thinking about projects and promising lost shipmates that she'll live her photographic life passionately and without reservation.
