Welcome
Recently, I have been encouraged to "speak up" and "speak out".  I figured what better way to do this than by launching a blog to go with my new website layout?  For those of you who don't know me, I'm Rachael... the younger of the two sisters that co-own Cymbidium.  After a year of doing our accounting (and hating my life) I was pushed by a slightly older and wiser sister to pursue my dreams of being a photographer.  A lot of research, a few trips to the camera store, and an extended stay abroad later... CYMBIDIUM photography was born.  It's been a few years now but the excitement of showing the world how I see things returns every time I pick up the camera and LOOK THROUGH MY LENS.

To anyone who knows me, it wont be a shock to find that the Village of Hope is included in my first "hope" entry, as it is one of the places I find myself dreaming of and praying for daily. Located in Ghana, West Africa the VoH currently consists of an orphanage, primary and secondary schools (that is K-9), a clinic, and both a street children and vocational training program. The Village now educates over 600 students and is home to over 200 orphans.  Needless to say, every time I visit I come home inspired.  I absolutely love the kids there and know that they are destined to do incredible things.  Check back regularly for new stories of the children of the Village of Hope.
