Over the last year, my hobby turned into a business; one that could possibly turn full time. My passion has grown, my experience has skyrocketed, and my appreciation of the craft has been taken to an indescribable level. This hobby/profession has brought me so much joy; I feel it is time to start sharing my joy with others. So I have teamed up with other great photographers to give back as well as venturing into my own territory.
The first is A Portrait House: A fund raising event for Habitat for Humanity
The second is Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep: A charity that provides families who have sick children with free portraits.
But sometimes it just takes a small push from a friend to put your own ideas into action. Having a brother who served in Iraq brought a great appreciating for our Armed Services and especially the ones serving abroad. I know the heartache and personal struggle having my brother be away for Christmas, birthdays and other important holidays. So, in the giving spirit, I will be giving away 4 FREE FAMILY PORTRAIT SESSIONS to families who have a father, mother, son, or daughter serving overseas defending our Nation. My shooting datesfor these will be shooting between 12.21.07 and 1.2.08. If you know anyone who should be considered, please Email me: jbergmeier@mac.com
