Do you have an official website where communication is otherwise?

I too would like to volunteer as a photographer. I have worked the two previous years with Brenda Murphy's group in Alexandria. I haven't heard from Brenda this year, so I guess that group is inactive. I can bring all the equipment needed for portraiture.

I can volunteer as a photography. How many others are there at this point?

Looking to join a group next Sat. Have 2 strobes, umbrella, sb, backdrop. It's not terribly clear how one goes about joining a shoot, or even where they are!

I just joined Help-Portrait last week after hearing about it on This Week in Photo (TWIP) and had planned to do a charity type shoot at an assisted living home in SE Washington near where I work in my day job even before hearing about the organization. Figured this would be a great opportunity to provide portraits to the residents of the home. I haven't received any feedback from the group leader yet on where else my time would be better served so unless I hear otherwise I plan on doing the shoot on Saturday the 4th here in SE Washington. It's near the Washington Navy Yard on M Street SE. If there is anyone that would like to join me I could use the help otherwise it's going to be a one man show. You can contact me at paulgooder@comcast.net or via cell at 202-281-8202
