Help Shane Rebuild His Life's Work After Fire Loss

I'm Sara, Shane's girlfriend. We were already on a plane to Mexico when the fire began in the Pacific Palisades, California. What we packed in our carry ons are the only belongings we have left. While material items can be replaced, 10 years of Shane's photography and videography work is gone. He had 12 different hard drives sitting on the kitchen table with his life's work. (it always drove me crazy, like put those away!!). Now he cannot create any videos with his footage he had for clients. Now he cannot print any of the brilliant photos to sell as prints as all his negatives are now burned (he just spent months organizing his thousands of negatives to be able to scan them). Half his camera equipment is gone (this is thousands of dollars of equipment). All of the traveling he did to be able to shoot some of these photos and the time put into his double exposures, has ultimately been for almost nothing... he is in a way, starting from square one.

Another thing is the rental car he was using at the time while his car was in the shop burned at our apartment. He has no idea what the car company will do, and we all know how insurance gets sometimes.

Shane will never ask for help, but he is the FIRST to help others. He doesn't even know I am creating this. Just $5 can help him get back on his feet. Or if you know of any video or photography jobs, please reach out. We will pay it forward when we can. Thank you!
