You will find her at farmers markets, craft fairs, traveling, and taking pictures wherever their adventures take them.

She uses that creativity to come up with interesting and engaging posts that will resonate with our audience and provide a valuable resource to readers.

Want your product, service, or location featured on Rave & Review®? We would love to work with you on a review or lifestyle post to share with our audience. All sponsored blog posts and reviews include original photographs and graphics as well as our unique story about why readers should click through to learn more.
Instead of a basic cut-and-pasted review, we focus on in-depth and personal reviews that allow readers to really get a feel for whatever we are raving about. This approach has resulted in our work being featured on dozens of sites throughout the years, including brands and PR firms we have worked with as well as larger scale releases that featured our own writing and photography. Our number one hope is that our readers will love and engage with each brand or service we feature, and because of that brands return to us over and over again.
Are you looking for a brand ambassador that you can partner with long-term? Throughout the years we’ve worked for dozens of brands as an ambassador and we’d love to discuss ideas on how we can best feature your brand on Rave & Review®. We find these ambassadorships to be the best way to really showcase a product or service and our readers like to see us staying loyal to brands we really love.
If you’re looking for social media partners, we also offer short form social coverage via Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Our social media reach is 26,000+ fans and growing, and we can help you decide which channel works best for your specific campaign.
We love to travel as a family for premieres, product launches, conventions, conferences, festivals, and trade shows, as well as to showcase premium and family travel accommodations all over the world. From cruise ships and planes to cross country train trips and camping, we love it all.
We do regular features showing our recent travels and we share our adventures on social media so our readers can follow along. In addition to articles about destinations and accommodations we love, we also offer comprehensive travel guides that have been wildly popular with our audience.
