Today is the first day of March, and our Month of Compassion begins! Remember that any family sponsoring a child with Compassion’s Ministries receives a free session this month and a complimentary print to send to their sponsored child (or children). We’re also excited to donate a portion of our proceeds from all of our sales this month to Compassion! We look forward to impacting our community and children from all over the world in March! We hope to see YOU as part of our Month of Compassion!

We’re excited for our next workshop to begin on Monday! We do have a handful of spots left, so feel free to contact us if you’re interested but have dragged your heels on signing up! We would love to have you! Our workshop is covering topics of workflow, post-production within Photoshop (facial retouching; color, contrast, and sharpening adjustments, cropping, layers, actions and brushes) and creating custom spreads (i.e., to build your own album pages or cards).
We look forward to meeting everyone on Monday, and if you’re not one of them and want to be there too, just call or e-mail and we’ll get you all set up to join us!
I mentioned in a prior post featuring sessions in Cheyenne Canyon that we had some snowy family sessions there as well, and here they are! It’s amazing how frozen Helen Hunt Falls is this time of year! We’ve had many more sessions late into the year and during the winter months so we’re seeing familiar places looking much different than usual for us! Snow always makes for fun and different portraits, and we have handfuls of favorites from both these sessions that ended at the snowy and frozen falls and upper canyon areas.

As 2011 began and we set our goals for our business, one of our priorities was to give back to our community even more. So we had the idea for March to be a month of giving, and we’ve chosen to support the Compassion Ministry. We chose Compassion for a number of reasons…first, we have a child in Guatemala, Teresa Reyes, that we have supported since 2005; second, Compassion is based here in Colorado Springs and is a vibrant part of our local community that impacts the global community; and third, we have a heart for kids, especially those in need.
So what does this mean for you? Any family in Colorado Springs that currently supports a child can schedule a free session ($125 value) with us during the month of March and will receive a complimentary print to send to their sponsored child (or children). Not yet supporting a child? Visit Compassion’s website, learn more, and prayerfully consider joining the thousands who sponsor a child. And if you become a new sponsor, we welcome you to have a free session with us in March! Additionally, all sessions done in March will have a portion of our proceeds from the sales donated to Compassion’s ministry. March is going to be an amazing month to schedule a session with us and know that your business with us will make a difference for children in need around the world!
We need your help! Please help us spread the word to the families of Colorado Springs so that we can have the biggest impact possible for Compassion in MARCH! Feel free to share this link or “like it” to your facebook page. With your help, March can be a fantastic “Month of Compassion!”
Meet our Teresa…
