I was recently accepted into two wonderful organizations, whose purpose is to help children and families in need during extremely difficult times.

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation gently provides a helping hand and a healing heart. For families overcome by grief and pain, the idea of photographing their baby may not immediately occur to them. Offering gentle and beautiful photography services in a compassionate and sensitive manner is the heart of this organization. The soft, gentle heirloom photographs of these beautiful babies are an important part of the healing process. They allow families to honor and cherish their babies, and share the spirits of their lives.

The Littlest Heroes Project is a non-profit based organization founded in January 2008, made up of professional photographers nationwide that provide free photo sessions to our nations Littlest Heroes. This is our way of giving back and taking a stand for these little 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.

What a fun time- my 3 “America’s next top model” nieces. They are all so photogenic, easy and fun to work with, and just know what to do in front of the camera.
I will have more soon, this is all I have gotten to so far.
I am excited that I had the opportunity to get them together- 2 of them are visiting from Texas!
