Flashes of Hope
I haven’t been able to come up with posts lately, but I had a wonderful experience on President’s Day. I was able to work with an organization called Flashes of Hope (www.flashesofhope.org). From their website, “Flashes of Hope is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating uplifting portraits of children fighting cancer and other life threatening illnesses.” This was a truly wonderful experience. This was the first event for Las Vegas and is just getting started, so there is a lot more to come. It was done at the Sunrise Children’s Hospital in one of the conference rooms. The organization even provides a hair and makeup stylist so the people involved can look their best. The families receive a beautiful leather portfolio with the results of the photography session. As I already said, this was a special experience that I look forward to in the future. I have included two pictures. The first one is one of my top favorites because I think it very dramatic and powerful. Later I will talk about details of the setup.
