We had the good fortune of connecting with Rache Creque and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Rache, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My thought process behind starting my own business in photography stemmed from my family. I come from a family of female serial entrepreneurs. Almost all of the women in my family has left 9-5 job and decided to work for themself. Growing up I’ve always had the influence of working for yourself is possible. I also knew that I hated being at a certain place at a certain time, I always wanted to follow my own rules. My way or no way. The last corporate job I worked at I was laidoff because of my repeated lateness and from that point I told myself that ”this was my last job”. I needed to put my talents to work. I became a photographer and I studied under my aunt Robin V Thompson who is a celebrity photographer for over 10+ years,
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am naturally a creative being. I love to create and be in a creative field. My photography sets my apart from others because I always think outside of the box and capture true beauty, sexuality and a moment. My photos will make you feel as if you were there in production. I specialize in beauty and fashion and I also take product photography. I became a photography professionally because I was tired of working a 9-5 was laid off. I wanted flexibility and to really pursue something that I loved, enjoyed. Become a photography wasn’t easy. It’s more to it than just having a camera and lights. just like any otherr profession you must learn the craft. I studied my butt off in everything there was to photography. You only become great when you apply yourself and do the work. I want the world to know about my brand is don’t ever be afraid of your gifts and talents just go out and do it. God has given you these gifts to showcase the world. Don’t remain hidden,
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
my favorite places in Miami flordia would have to be Los Olas, Wynwood and Miami Beach
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would love to give a shoutout to my Aunt Robin V Thompson, she influenced my career as a photographer. she pushed me and my talents and has encouraged my career. I am forever grateful for her guidance and mentorship I wouldn’t have chosen this career without her support.
