Portraits taken with Cynthia Rauch helps charities!

October is Family Portrait Month!  

Please help me support these charities! 

In October the Professional Photographers of America sponsors a fundraiser for charities to help children and their families.  This yearly event offers us an opportunity to have your family fall and winter portraits taken while supporting these charities.  Each charity has their own story.

Throughout the month of October when you come to the studio for your fall family or Christmas portraits I will support these charities donating your $30 session fee.
