Rachelle - Face #12
Smokin'! That pretty much sums up this young woman and her work. Rachelle owns a local flower shop, Flowers by Rachelle, where she specializes in creating reminders of the beauty ever present in life. Rachelle is truly a remarkable young woman. She is a business owner as well as talented, beautiful, sweet, and compassionate; that is definitely smokin'. In addition to all of her work at her shop, Rachelle volunteers her time in a variety of ways throughout the community. Rachelle most definitely has an amazing heart for serving others. Thanks, Rachelle, for giving me a bit of your valuable time; it was a pleasure! And for all you young men, there is still hope. Remarkably, she is single! :)

Paul - Face #11
Lovingly devoted! A man of so many talents, amazing character, and gentle yet passionate spirit is undervalued in today's society. Yet, because of him many lives have been touched, changed, emboldened, and, most importantly, loved. Paul works in the technology department at Enloe Hospital here in Chico, and he is deeply loved by his friends, family, and others that he has impacted and served. When Paul is not busy attending to the aforementioned, he can be found giving his time in a variety of ways throughout the community. Paul, you are wonderful. Thank you for all you do, and thanks for allowing me to grab a few shots of you!

Señora Smith - Face #10
Have you experienced the gift of having a teacher who challenged you to be a better person? That is how countless students feel about Señora Smith. Arguably one of the most passionate teachers we have ever had the pleasure of meeting, Señora raises the bar of excellence in teaching to a whole new level. Her courage, love, and desire to motivate and challenge her students is truly inspiring. While teachers often do not get the thanks they so richly deserve, we hope that this will serve as a small word of thanks. Thank you Señora for all that you do; your students are different for having been loved by you. Thanks for allowing me a few moments to capture a bit of you!

Gerrard - Face #8
Meet homie Gee! Well, at least his friends call him Gee. Everyone else knows him as Gerrard. Gee is a super smart guy who aspires to be an engineer, and he might even find fame one day. Until then Gee is famous among his friends and family for his amazing sense of humor and steadfast loyalty. He has a gift that is truly treasured in our culture, the gift of being able to make people smile. But don't tell Mr. Gee that he is cute; instead, he prefers to be labeled handsome! Thanks, Gee, for allowing me a bit of your time and for making me laugh (even though I almost knocked myself out in the process). :)

Officer Andy Houghtby - Face #7
This is Andy, who is arguably the most friendly neighborhood police officer we have ever met. Andy can often been seen biking around the Chico State Campus wearing a grin that would make even the most serious contemplate returning his smile. Andy has served both as a officer and a sheriff in the Chico area. He has a lovely wife and several handsome young boys. If you see Andy biking around, ask him for one of his collector cards! Thanks, Andy, for allowing us a few minutes with you and for all the hard work that you do.
