Kevin Raber RIP (was Iceland Locations)
« on: September 14, 2025, 06:10:30 pm »

I was just looking through old posts to plan some shooting locations in Iceland and came across Kevin's postings and found out he passed away in March of 2025. Information and links are below.
Just wanted to share here as I didn't see this anywhere else.

Our community lost a champion today, March 25th, 2025.

Following a series of strokes over the past 48 hours, Kevin has passed away in Indianapolis.

As I look at the letters ‘RIP’ that are placed over his photograph, I realize of course that the last thing Kevin would do is rest.

Kevin was a man of boundless energy and enthusiasm with a true passion – combined in a soul uniquely joyous and tender.

He leaves his wife Debra, sister Christine and sons Kevin, Bobby & Scott, his step-son and -daughter Maxwell & Claire and granddaughters Mia, Ellie & Frances – and so many friends & colleagues. Lastly his beloved dog Maggie and the cats Ansel, Jupiter & Nova.

I will create a ‘virtual’ Book of Remembrance on the PhotoPXL forum for friends and readers to share their memories of Kevin

In sorrow,

That’s truly sad news — Kevin Raber was an incredible photographer and a genuine inspiration to so many in the photography community. His passion for exploration, especially in places like Iceland, and his dedication to https://verhistoriasig.com.mx/ knowledge through workshops and articles left a lasting legacy. His work and mentorship will continue to inspire future photographers for years to come. Rest in peace, Kevin.
