A pink special for October!

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

It’s no secret that my family has been more than “touched” by breast cancer.  In fact, it runs rampant on my mom’s side of the family.  Fortunately, there have been many survivors, including my mom, with this dreadful disease.  Detection is the best protection.  Do your breast exams ladies!

In honour of October being breast Cancer Awareness month, I will be donating 10% of any new sessions booked between October 1-31 to the Canadian Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation.  The session does not have to occur in October, but I do need to receive your deposit by October 31!

Help me raise money for this wonderful cause!  You can contact me at jennifer@naturallybeautifulphotography.com to book your session!

Think Pink

Several years ago, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Three years later, two surgeries and radiation treatment, I’m proud to say that today she is living cancer free and enjoying her semi-retirement! I dedicate this post to her.

I recently found out about Think Pink Photography. Think Pink is a network of photographers that provides photography services to breast cancer patients. I am excited to announce a partnership with Think Pink Photography. Think Pink Photography was founded in October 2007 to support individuals and their families who have been touched by breast cancer. We are a charitable organization that serves two main purposes – celebrating life and supporting the cause.

Through our professional photographer network, we are helping breast cancer patients to celebrate life with charitable photography sessions. Individuals may choose to document their fight against the disease before or during treatment, or prefer to capture their victory by scheduling a session within 12 months after treatment is completed. Photographers world-wide are now available to donate time and talent to celebrate life and support the cause. There is no cost or obligation to the breast cancer patient. Clients participating in a Think Pink Session will receive a complimentary photo session, as well as a set of 10 small prints from the session. They will also receive a discount on any additional portraits they wish to purchase, although there is absolutely no purchase required at any time.

To support the cause, we have partnered with The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. All funds generated through donations and various fundraising efforts are paid directly to The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. As a 3-time breast cancer survivor, Danielle Beverly and her husband Eric joined together to form a foundation dedicated to promoting education, increasing awareness, and providing support and resources for families who have been touched by breast cancer.

Please subscribe to our blog (on the Think Pink website) and tell your friends and family about Think Pink Photography. Awareness is everything and we can’t be successful without you.

I encourage you to view our website, make a donation, or hire a photographer that supports Think Pink Photography! If you hire me, mention Think Pink and I will make a personal donation to the organization. If you, or someone you know, would like to schedule a Think Pink session, please contact me for details.

I am very proud to be a network photographer with Think Pink Photography, and am anxious to get the word out about this amazing program. For more information, you can contact me, or you can visit the Think Pink Photography website at:  http://www.thinkpinkphotography.org
