I am very gratified to announce that I have decided to become a part of new photography group called "Think Pink Photography". It is for the benefit of those who are battling breast cancer as well as breast cancer survivors and their families. Some of you also know that I lost my own mother to breast cancer twenty years ago this month. Since this group involves photography, let me also add that I have precious few photographs of my mother in her final years even though she was very young when she died. I can not express how I would have valued professional photos of her to show my children and to remind me of the awesome mother and person she was. I am so pleased to be able to help other families document their trials and triumphs. So... a bit about "Think Pink".
Think Pink Photography was founded in October 2007 to support
individuals and their families who have been touched by breast cancer.
We are a non-profit organization that serves two main purposes -
celebrating life and supporting the cause. Through our
photography network, we are helping breast cancer survivors and their
supporters to celebrate life with charitable photography sessions.
Through donations and various fundraising efforts, all profits from Think Pink Photography will be donated to The Beverly Family Foundation.
As a 3-time breast cancer survivor, Danielle Beverly and her husband
Eric joined together to form a foundation dedicated to promoting
education, increasing awareness, and providing support and resources
for families who have been touched by breast cancer.
As Think
Pink Photography grows, so will the opportunities for you to become
involved and support this important cause. I encourage you to sign up
for our newsletter (on the Think Pink website and Think Pink blog) and
tell your friends and family about Think Pink Photography. Awareness is
everything and we can't be successful without you.
In honor
of Breast Cancer Awareness month, I encourage you to view our website,
make a donation, or hire a photographer that supports Think Pink
Photography! If you hire me, mention Think Pink and I will make a
personal donation to the organization. And ask me about the Think Pink
Collection for storyboards and notecards - I'll post samples on another
blog. With a purchase, I will also make a personal donation! Thank you in advance for your participation.
