New Location: Family Services at Gaithersburg, MD - Dec 10, 2011

Today I found out Family Services http://www.fs-inc.org/, in Gaithersburg, MD, would love to have us to help their families with a beautiful portrait. Family Services is over a century old. They have about 90 families, and they mainly serve children 0 - 5 yrs old. I personally would be thrilled to be able to give back to these children.

 

So, as this venue was confirmed today, I am looking for anybody and everybody to help out to make this day so special for these kids, that they will remember it for the rest of their lives!

Please help, if you can.

I'd like to help out as a photographer and for set-up if you are still in need of extra hands.  I can provide an umbrella softbox too if needed.   gslen83@gmail.com

Hi George,

Wonderful! I need all the help there is, since we will have about 60 families (if everybody shows up), to photograph.Thanks for your email address. I will be in touch.

Thanks,

Patricia

Ok, I got my schedule worked out so I should be able to be there all day. I shoot Canon (7D) and have a few bits and pieces which I will bring, but I have no portrait experience. So I'll be happy to do whatever.

Do you have an address for the event location?

All, we have enough people to "rock" this event on Saturday, so I am "closing" this group!

If you are still looking to help out, you may want to check out the Good Sheperd Alliance; they still need help. Thank you!
