Raven Trammell | Culture Shift (raven50mm)

I love exploring how we can continue to expand storytelling! I’ve been making these Legacy Portraits for a few years now - mostly of family. I’m really excited to bring this together as a project. I’m even more energized by the stories and people God will bring into the Polaroid Portrait Exchange.

Fun fact: WWJD bracelets actually started in my hometown of Holland, Michigan 🙌🏾 Back in 1989, youth leader Janie Tinklenberg at Calvary Reformed Church wanted a simple way to help students remember to ask, “What Would Jesus Do?” She and a local company created the first woven WWJD bracelets — not as a fashion trend, but as a daily reminder to follow Jesus. They eventually spread around the world! Anybody still have one? 👀 I’ve slowly started carrying a few with me again. Not to start conversations… But to end them. If I have a meaningful, Spirit-led conversation with someone, I’ll sometimes leave them with one as a small reminder that God is with them long after we part ways. I’ve got a handful packed for WNBA All-Star Weekend. It’s always exciting to see who God wants to give one to 🙏🏾🧡

I miss my Dad He recently passed unexpectedly and it’s been hard to navigate. This is my first big loss and it’s like I’m in an alternate reality or something. The weight of the holiday season has been heavy. Each day leading up to thanksgiving has been like a 25lb weight added on to me. Right now, I’m just trying to keep showing up for my family. It’s weird being in a situation that I would talk to my Dad about (taking care of the family if he wasn’t here). The greatest gift he ever gave me was Faith. It really is the only thing keeping me going right now. Are you grieving? What’s been helpful for you in the holiday season? Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾

Six weeks ago Tally was a Google Doc and a walkie-talkie. I work at a Boys & Girls Club of Greater Holland. Every day I watched staff try to track behavioral incidents in real time — calling out over walkies, scribbling in notebooks, hoping someone remembered to log it later. The system wasn’t working. Information got lost. Kids were noisy. Staff were stressed. So I went home one night and built a prototype. The next day I brought it in and had staff test it. They loved it. We made some tweaks and started using it for real. That was Tally. Two weeks into the pilot across two Boys & Girls Club sites — 146 incidents logged. Staff replaced every system they were using. Here’s what they said without being prompted: “We used to have multiple systems… now it’s just all here.” “Better than saying it over the walkie… kids are nosy.” “It’s kept me accountable to actually log incidents.” The tool does one thing: lets staff log a behavioral incident in under a minute, in real time, visible to everyone on shift. No paper. No walkies. No relying on memory. Two more sites are onboarding this week. I don’t come from a software background. I built this because I saw a problem every single day and couldn’t stop thinking about how to fix it. That’s still the only reason I’m doing this. If you work in youth programming, after-school, or school operations and this sounds familiar — I’d love to hear how your team handles it today.
