So I joined the PPA (Professional Photographer's Association) yesterday. They are associated with a phenomenal charity - Operation Smile. In case you aren't aware of what that is, I'll give you the elevator speech:
"Each year this incredible organization of more than 6,000 volunteer doctors, nurses, dentists, and specialized health-care professionals, perform free reconstructive surgeries for children suffering with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities. More than 100,000 children are born with a facial deformity each year in Operation Smile’s 26 partner countries."
Recording the faces of children and their families is one of my greatest pleasures. That’s why I believe so strongly in the work of Operation Smile. So, as part of helping the PPA raise money for Operation Smile, the PPA has organized Family Portrait Month in October. For each family session in October ( a great month for family photos for your Christmas Cards) I'll donate $25 of the Session Fee plus 10% of the gross sales amount. Pass the info along! It's a great cause and I'm proud to be part of this and can't wait to see how much money we can raise!
