This post really has nothing to do with wedding photography. Portrait photography, maybe, but it really is not about that either. It really has more to do with a topic I would like to share with my friends and clients.
Each year around the holidays many of us start thinking of all the parties, gatherings, good food and wonderful times that can be had. I too think about these things as I really do love spending time with friends and family. I also think about people who are less fortunate than myself. This year I have been approached by the American Cancer Society to donate my time for a large benefit called The Henderson County Cattle Baron`s Charity Gala. The black tie event is in its 8 year and attracts over 600 attendees. This year`s event will be held at The Cain Center in Athens, Texas on Nov. 5th starting at 7pm. I will be providing a portrait station on the night of the event as well as two roving photographers to capture candids of the crowd. The images will be for sell and all of he proceeds from the portraits and candids will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
I am excited about this event and the opportunity to donate some time and money to a very worthy cause. So many of us have been affected by cancer. I personally have had family members and friends who have past away due to some form of cancer as I am sure most of you have too. If you live in Henderson or the ajoining counties please consider attending this very special event. There will be live music (a 17 piece band) playing swing music, dancing , great food, live and silent auctions and much more. Plus my wonderful husband, Dino, has donated his time to be the MC for the event. Email me if you want to learn how to get tickets.
If you can not attend this event I encourage each one of you to get involved in some kind of charity or special cause before this year is done. But don`t stop there.........carry it over into 2006. Not only will you be helping others in the long run you will be helping yourself as well!!
Wanna know a little more about me? Okay here we go. I am a professional photographer in the Dallas, Texas area. I have specialized in portraits and weddings for about 12 years. I offer studio and/or location portrait work and cover weddings at just about any locale. I enjoy shooting families, brides, kids and high school senior portraits. I am a Texas native but spent 13 years in Las Vegas, NV. where I started my first photo studio in 1997. I am married to a creative and funny man named, Dino, who keeps me laughing and loving him after 13 years together. Okay enough about me. Thanks for stopping by and make sure you leave a comment so I know you were here! |
