Yesterday was a bit of a shocking surreal blur as we had a personal tragedy and were scrambling to get life’s basic necessities taken care of. Thank you so much to those of you who pitched in for all your immediate help and continued support.
At 4am June 12th, 2018 we awoke to loud sirens, an orange glow coming from my daughters room – a house on fire. As we rushed and scrambled to extinguish the fire, it was quickly determined that we needed help. We made a hasty evacuation from the heat and smoke. As the smoke got black and thick the fire department showed up with 7 trucks as well as medical support and had the blaze under control in no time. It is still unclear what caused the blaze, but we suspect it was electrical. Everyone made it out ok, including the puppies. Barring the clothes we were wearing, everything else we owned was still inside. I spent what savings I had to get a couple of necessities for my daughter and I such as a few days worth of clothes and a meal. In the following days we found out that we were severely underinsured. I am not wealthy and in a bit of a bind, but we will rebuild.
To make a long story short:
I did manage to grab my laptop and camera bag as they were already packed up and by the door from a previous photoshoot I had done.
I will literally be having a FIRE SALE on any photoshoot you may have in mind. If you need images for any reason – please do not hesitate to contact me directly for 25%-50% off my normal rates. (Listed under the “INVESTMENT ” tab)
Whether it is a commercial photo shoot, a family portrait, or your companies event, I am comfortable shooting just about any content from your headshot to your ad campaign to your senior portraits or perhaps some fine art for your wall.
While I would much prefer to work with you and build a lasting relationship, I understand that sometimes that isn’t logistically possible nor practical for some. Therefore, if you would prefer to make a donation rather than booking a photo session, I completely understand and would be eternally grateful.
Other ways that you can help, would be to share this and help spread the word as much as possible or if you are really a fan of my work, feel free to support my creativity by becoming a monthly “PATRON ” and get access to exclusive content or even come out on set and watch the magic happen LIVE!
Thank you so much.
