Photographer For The Littlest Heroes Project!

We are pleased to announce that we have been selected to take part as photographers in the Little Heroes Project. We couldn't be more excited and honored to have the opportunity to give to such a great cause and to inspirational people.

Here is an excerpt taken from the official Littlest Heroes Project website:

The Littlest Heroes Project is a non-profit based organization founded in January 2008 by Felicia Reinhard, made up of professional photographers nationwide that provide free photo sessions to our nations Littlest Heroes. Through the power of photography we are giving back and taking a stand for these children who sometimes feel forgotten because of their illnesses. We are here to let them know that they are heroes to many, and to share their inspirational stories and photos with the world.

Our mission at The Littlest Heroes Project is to help provide and capture memories for families who are dealing with hectic schedules due to having a child who is suffering from a serious illness or life altering disability. We understand that in the midst of being thrown a diagnosis and having to switch from a “normal” life to a life that is totally different, and often scary, things like getting photos taken is sometimes a huge challenge and is one of the last things families are thinking about. But when everything is done, and either the child has reached the end of their battle, or has proven the odds against it many wish they had more time to stop, and capture the journey that they lived through for so long. Through Littlest Heroes our photographers understand each and every case, and cater it to fit and honor each child and family. Our photographers are on hand to travel to homes, hospitals, clinics, fundraisers, and benefits to help capture your child’s journey in a “Day in the life” sort of style and work personally one on one with your child and entire family to get those special family photos and moments that you can cherish for years to come.

It's GIVEAWAY time! FREE photo shoot!

Calling all couples, families, kids and high school seniors! We've decided to offer a FREE photo shoot! That's right. And all you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your ideal photo shoot location. The more creative, the better. And remember, this is a family friendly blog so don't get TOO crazy!

But think about it. I have a few ideas in my head. Spots I've been wanting to shoot but I want to hear what you think. And we will pick based on which one we like the absolute most. I'm looking for anyone and everyone who wants a FREE photo shoot in the Rhode Island area.

Why would a Photographer give away free business you ask? It has to do with giving back. Helping out. Making someone happy, and thriving off of their happiness.

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

- Winston Churchill

That is one of my favorite quotes in life that always comes back around. At all levels of life, we can observe the process of giving and receiving. It’s a dynamic exchange that must exist in order for life to perpetuate itself. Everything at the most basic level is engaged in giving and receiving. Energy is given, energy is received. If giving and receiving is such a fundamental part of life itself, then the same law must also apply to our interpersonal interaction. If we wish to receive, we must first give to others. The more we give, the more we will receive.

We do not and will not run this business like the run-of-the-mill businesses. We are different, we are unique and we are better then the average business. We want to give our time to charities and causes. We want to use our skills and talents in ways other photographers wouldn't and can't.

So there it is. This is real, with no strings attached.

Here's what you do:

-- leave a comment before May 15th
-- tell us your ideal photo shoot location (make sure it fits your personality and style!)
-- check back here after the deadline and see if you are the lucky WINNER!
