We had the good fortune of connecting with Rachy Raxx and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Rachy, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I remember when I was younger my OG’s would tell me “within this one life you have if their is anything you want out of it there will always be risk involved so come to terms with it.” If you truly want it you will do whatever to get it but understand that it won’t always go your way, even now mentally, if i cant accept that and do what needs to be done you’ll always be stagnant and THAT is what causes me more stress then any bad outcome that came from me trying to elevate my brand or business.
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Growing up I was always told I was blind, thick glasses with a heavy prescription, but even then I was snapping front cover worthy shots. This photography thing is in me not on me, time after time i’ve proven with even the most standard equipment im able to get the perfect shot to meet the needs of my clients every time and it’s not even close. My eyes are my most valuable asset and it wasn’t easy getting to the position im at now but I made it happen and still making it happen. It worked “out in my favor” and now I’m in rooms with people who could buy the whole building. I came up with on my brothers couch when i had no where else to go. From a small kid in stamford with a nikon D80 to becoming The Vision I wouldn’t change anything
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I ain’t going to give up all the game I got cause I got my comfort spots that haven’t been gentrified yet but for the real Atlanta we definitely stopping by Mamas for some of the best Mexican food in the city might go to cascade or Andrettis depending on my mood and then maybe walk the belt line to wind down after. the options are honestly limitless the city has so much to offer and so many different scenes to get into from picking up a 10pc at magic to going to the high museum to recharge my artistic pallet
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Shoutout to all my Zoes, my brothers keeper and my family. each one has had an influential role in where im at now whether big or small and they know who they are. not much to say on that expect they know they straight for life once I finally get to where i need to be
