About Me

www.rachelrodemann.com

I'm Rachel.
I'm an artist and a journalist.
I take pictures, I paint, I draw, and I write.
...
Arkansas is home now.
I moved for a really awesome job as a photo-journalist
at the Sentinel-Record in Hot Springs.
I've never loved my job career so much.
I've never loved my life so much, either. =]
My heart belongs to Cory. Period.
I hate to admit it, but that probably did help me decide to move here.
Which is ok, and I still think it I made the right decision,
Cause now I get to see my baby and his babies whenever I want.
And that's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
I honestly never knew you could love anyone as much as I love the three of them.
...
I am still a Carolina girl at heart, but I'm also really happy here.
...
I like southern music, southern landscapes, & sweet tea more than most things.
I'm a nice girl, so say hi to me if you see me around.
And I'm EDGE so if you wanna buy me a drink...make it Dr. Pepper.
(PS: Don't offer me crackers at a bar. It doesn't make sense & I'll just want to punch you.)

"a photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know."
richard avedon

henri cartier-bresson
to take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. it is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis."
e.j. bellocq

robert frank
above all, I know that life for a photographer cannot be a matter of indifference"
garry winogrand
"the true business of photography is to capture a bit of reality (whatever that is) on filmâ€¦if, later, the reality means something to someone else, so much the better"
