Hi there,

 

Wellington Photographic Society will be running the 2010 Help Portrait (with Brenzen's okay) so if you're interested, please let me know.

 

We hope to get heaps of volunteers on the day and would be keen to take photos across the Wellington region.  So, whether you live in Porirua or Petone, Wellington or Wainuiomata, or anywhere in between, please touch base and let us know what you can do.

 

If you have any contacts with organisations that would like to be involved, please let me know who to contact there.

 

Thanks!

That'll be fine, thanks.
Hello everybody,

Thanks for making today for such a great success. I don't have confirmation yet of how many photos were taken but Russ and Linda, thanks for going to Malvina. Jim, Mark, Ben, Clarence Thomas and I were at CCF and the response was overwhelming. A special thanks to Margaret and Sally at CCF who made us feel so welcome and made sure we had something to eat and drink too.

Jarrod, your make-up team was great - I'm sure they painted more adult than kids faces! The variety of special effects faces was great and the daddy tiger was just incredible. Mind you, the pink, mommy tiger was just as awesome. The make-up team certainly made the kids' day too and having the kids comfortable made the photographers' job easier too.

Next year will be even bigger and better, I'm sure! I have touched base with the Community team at WCC and they're keen to be involved too so that'll give us access to bigger groups across the community. I'll diarise to get us started in August and we can see if we can get commitment from communities and photographers alike at least a month out so that we have more certainty about who goes where and when much earlier than this year.

Thanks again everybody! If you can get your images to me on CDs, and let me know which three you want printed, I'll get that done this week and then deliver the CDs to the organisations so that they can distribute them for us.

Cheers,

Zelda
Hi there, great to hear the events were a success!! Thank you for all your hard work to get this organised this year.
Thanks Ronja - I think most of us have decided it's a definite go for 2011 and I'll start organising in about August. Hope you can be part of it then too. Z.
Just about finished processing the photos and will aim to burn them to CD tonight. Yeah, Marg and Sally at CCF were awesome and so well organised. It was a privilege to the part of the event and meeting the people and hearing some of their stories was so touching.

Zelda, your picture frame prop was awesome! I used it at our church photoshoot on Sunday and it went down a treat :)

Thought I'd share photo of two great looking volunteers in the meantime :)


(Let me know if you would like this removed)
Thanks Clarence - lovely pic of mother and daughter! I think we should add some more of the volunteer ones. Do we need instructions on how to do it? I have a lovely one of you and Terry & Elijah. I have one more 'family' to edit and then need to decide which ones to print. Russ sent me a sample of the MM photos and they're awesome too. Chat soon, Zelda.
Here are the make up artists. It was great to be in the same room with them.




Great photos too Thomas. See you tomorrow.
More volunteer photos.....

Great pics Thomas and Zelda!

(Didn't know you took that shot of me with Terry and Elijah- ha ha. Love it.)

Yes, thanks for sharing Zelda!

Hey everyboby,

 

Thank you so much for all your effort this year. Heard it was such a great success! Special thanks to Zelda, I'm really glad that you took over.

 

And I'm really sorry that I didn't get back to everybody earlier, as some of you know I'm highly pregnant and this is the reason for me not participating this year.

I just have a few weeks to go and also developpes Gestational Diabetes which keeps me quite busy with appointments.

But I'll def be back for next year and I can only totally agree to start really early with the preparations.

 

Also very happy to see that some folks of last years team were back again ;-)

 

I think Linda asked if it's possible to delete last years entry. I'll be happy to do this in the next few days and also continue to admin.

 

Zelda we should def. catch up soon.

 

CONGRATULATIONS to all of you again! And THANK YOU.

 

Have a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year!
