The Valley Fire could become one of the top 5 most destructive fires in our history; the toll on our region’s landscape and community is heartbreaking.
I was able to raise $3,150 in 24 hours for the Valley Fire relief efforts by offering free photo shoots in exchange for donations.
Think what we could raise if every photographer made the same offer in their community.
If you are a photographer who would like to help, here is the challenge offer:
FREE one hour digital photo shoots in (name of your town) to the first 10 people who donate ($$) or more to one of the following organizations that is raising money to support the relief efforts for the victims of the Lake County area fires.
Please use the hashtag #photographfighter so we can see everyone who is playing and their photos.
These are the nonprofits my clients donated directly to:
Thank you for participating and I look forward to seeing the difference our photography community can make.
