Images from Stellar Fraser's travels to Nepal and beyond will be on sale at the Gallery Garage in Nannup this weekend to raise funds for earthquake relief efforts.

The Nannup-based photographer said she felt "helpless" after the recent Nepal earthquakes and felt compelled to help.

"I've been to Nepal twice and I absolutely fell in love with the country," she said.

"The people are so beautiful, the mountains awe-inspiring and the culture wonderful.

"This was my way of helping."

The Oxfam Australia Nepal Fund will receive 65 per cent of profits from the Nepal image sales and 80 per cent of other image sales will go to the Happiness Colony Orphanage in Kathmandu.

More than $8500 of raffle prizes - including a $4500 diamond from Bensimon Diamonds - will be up for grabs.

Gallery doors will be open from May 30-June 1 between 10am and 6pm.
