One of my fav. photographers Angela Anderson (i highly admire and love her work) just joined “Giving Is Awesome”
So I thought I would check it out- and it looks so great so I joined! It is so important to give back to the community. So many people are in such need! We all live in our little bubbles sometimes and just don’t realize how lucky we are, how blessed we are.
here is a bit about “Giving is Awesome“
Giving is Awesome is a simple effort by photographers worldwide to give back to their communities. Regional contests are sponsored by photographers across the globe. Each photographer is encouraged to give both a session fee and a generous amount of portrait product (typically $1000 or more) to a worthy individual or family this holiday season. Giving a smaller portrait gift to the person who does the nominating of the winner (typically $250 or more) is also strongly encouraged. Most giveaway winners are being announced on Christmas Eve, but you can choose your own announcement date.
Hanle Productions Gives Back! Read Below how you can nominate someone in need this Christmas!
You know someone. You know someone who’s experienced a tragedy, is struggling to stay afloat, is raising kids while holding down more than one job, or is volunteering selflessly despite extenuating personal circumstances. You know someone who can’t afford custom photography, but who would cherish it this holiday season. You know someone who deserves a year-round reminder of their family’s spirit, love, and beauty.
You know someone. I guarantee it.
I want to know who they are, and I want to give them the chance to experience complimentary custom photography – $650 worth, to be exact. The winners will receive portrait session, archival DVD, and a print package. It’s in your power to give them the artwork they deserve this holiday season.
Oh, and the best part? The person who nominates the winner receives a $500 portrait session and archival DVD. What better reason to show some love could there possibly be, people?
The rules:
* You cannot nominate yourself, and the person nominated must sincerely be incapable of purchasing my services. (Being unable to make mortgage payments for a two-million-dollar-vacation-home in Paris does not qualify as sincere financial need.)
* The nominee must reside in the Milwaukee/Chicago Area. Tell me who you know, what they’re experiencing, and why they deserve my artwork. Please include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself as well.
* You must e-mail me the full story : brittany@hanle-productions.com.
The winner will be announced on Christmas Eve — get nominating! I can’t wait to read all of your entries!
Open your heart to someone this holiday season — and thanks for giving me the opportunity to open mine.
With love,
Brittany K
