The Olivia Act
In
the midst of my busy season, this tragic event occurred. The whole time
that I was working away at getting everyone's images edited and back to
them in time for Christmas, I keep thinking, "I wish I wasn't so busy
so I could do something for this town, these people". I found this on
another photographers page, and think it is a wonderful idea!
The Olivia Act,
named after one of the children killed in Newtown, Ct., was started by a
photographer who wishes to be anonymous. Olivia’s family had family
pictures taken a short time before she was killed. Those pictures are
precious and now priceless to them. Upon hearing this, this photographer
was moved to give away a 30 minute family photo shoot and has
challenged other photographers to do the same. We go about our daily
lives and sometimes we don’t take the time or have the resources to have
family photos taken.
So, I will be taking nominations
for a family who you think would appreciate this gift or doesn't have
the means to have family photos taken. This session will take place
after the New Year. I will be taking Nominations until December 31st .
Please email me at erinmariephotography@hotmail.com
with their name, contact information and a brief summary of why you
chose them: putting "THE OLIVIA ACT NOMINATION" in the subject line. The
chosen family will be contacted via email or phone call. Please do not
post their information here. The gift is a session, petite print
collection, and digital images, so they may have priceless keepsakes to
adorn their home. Thank you. ♥
Photographers, please consider taking part in The Olivia Act
I think this is a great way to share your talent with another family. When will we find out who won?
