Born and raised in Minnesota in the age of black-and-white television, Raucher’s work is heavily influenced by early exposure to the documentary photography of Life magazine and The Family of Man. His photographs have been published online and in print in LensWork, Adore Noir, Slate, Lenscratch, Black & White Magazine, The Daily Mail, The Independent, Featureshoot, F-Stop Magazine, Camera Arts, and Datum Seiten der Zeit. His prints have been shown in many solo exhibitions nationally and exhibited in Blue Sky's Pacific Northwest Photography Viewing Drawers multiple times since 2012. His photography is in the permanent collections of the Lishui Museum of Photography and the University of Washington Hall Health Center, in addition to many private collections.
