Mid-Summer Update



This has been a crazy, exciting, and fulfilling spring and half of summer. In addition to creating portraits for 2009 high school seniors and photographing fabulous weddings, we also photographed The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's coveted Man & Woman of the Year Campaign. The image displayed above is that of Marissa Slagg and her brand new baby son, Connor. Marissa, pregnant at the time, was a Candidate in the running for 2008 Woman of the Year. We had the honor of photographing Marissa and her brand new son at the Grand Finale, Connor being only 2 weeks old!

This is our fourth year as the Photographic Sponsors for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. We were blessed with the full recovery of Shireen's mother from lymphoma in 2004. We feel it is most appropriate that we give back to this wonderful organization. This year's Man & Woman of the Year campaign raised over $200,000 which will be used towards research for a cure. We will also be photographing at The Light the Night walk in September. For more information on The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society visit their site at www.lls.org/mn

We will soon be announcing our exclusive Angels of Hope portrait calendar contest and campaign for 2009. This will be an exciting event to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Please watch our website for more details.
