The month of May is a month when we honor mothers and I have decided to do as much as I can to fundraise for an organization, Soulumination that gives amazing gifts to mothers who are experiencing trials in life that all mothers pray they will not have to experience.
Friends that know me well know that I thrive on being challenged & giving. This month I am going to try my best to really fill myself up in both areas. And I hope you can join me in this endeavor.
There are a few things that are going to be very challenging. First is that I am going to try my hand at the social networking craze and jump on the Twitter bandwagon and supplement that with a little Facebook action and continued blogging as well. The second challenge is that I am going to try and have at least one mini session every day in May (the business days, that is) and processing through them as fast as I can. And I am going to try and have as much fun with it as I possibly can. I am not going to announce the time & location of each session until the day of or the day before so you must follow me on Facebook (find the Tara Clark Photography page and become a fan), Twitter (tclarkphoto)and check my blog too.
I will be shooting for 1 hour and it will be on a first come first serve basis (I may accept phone calls to schedule the time but that will be determined once I get going so you will just want to show up). Each child will receive 15 minutes of my time and a 5x7 of their choice from at least 20 images that will be posted online. I will ask for a minimum donation of $25 to be given to Soulumination (but giving more always feels better:)). Each day will have some sort of qualifier for the subjects of the day, i.e. you must be 12 yrs old; you must have a 3 in your age, like 3 mths, 2 yrs, 63 yrs, etc. Hopefully it will make sense as we go. I really think it is going to be a lot of fun and at the end of the day I hope to deliver a wonderful donation to Soulumination.
If you are thinking that I will not be able to capture beautiful images in such a short time know that RARELY happens. The image below was taken w/in the first 2 minutes of a mini session from last year and there were so many more to go along with it. So PLEASE forward this on to all your friends and family and help me meet make this personal challenge a big success and an even bigger gift to Soulumination!
p.s. not every sitting clue will be posted on all 3 spots (blog, FB & Twitter) so you will want to check each of them regularly and I am hoping to get a few other businesses on board for some extra surprises. And the minis are limited to 1 per family.
