| Location | South Lake Tahoe, CA, United States |
| Introduction | Born on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, as a young adult Rachid moved to Baltimore, Maryland, where he graduated from the prestigious Maryland Institute College of Art. After finishing college he found himself bouncing around the west coast of the United States going wherever there was a good photograph to take or story to tell. Along the way, Rachid has been fortunate enough to explore, snowboard, rock climb, surf and photograph some of the most beautiful places on Earth: Lake Tahoe, Yosemite National Park, Kirkwood Ski Resort (where he competed in the North American Extreme Championships), San Diego, Baja, Mexico, the Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest, and many more. Based in beautiful Lake Tahoe, Rachid works hard to provide creative images of the area from a different angle. He is focused on freelance photography, including landscape, action photos and even some on-location portraiture. Aside from general photography, his interests include highlighting socio-economic equality and environmental irresponsibility. His work has been featured in art galleries, magazines and commercial products across the country. |

Do you believe that forks are evolved from spoons?
More importantly I believe that the "spork" is one of the most under appreciated inventions of our time.
