Saturday turned out to a great day of helping 40 individuals/families get their picture taken. Processing was finished last night and now off to the printer. Thanks to Pixels Photo for the printing. While we hoped for more participants, all the counselors from the Housing Authority said we had a great turn out. Everyone measures success differently. The counselors expect more to come out next year.
This morning the organizers of Help Portrait released some numbers:
36,000 portraits given by 3,002 photographers and 4,422 volunteers in 511 locations in 41 countries.

Pictureline is also sponsoring our group. If you have never visited their stores, do so. They are a great local company with two locations, one downtown and the other in Draper.

Help-Portrait - Dec 12, 2009
I am going to take part in the world wide Help-Portrait on December 12. The group of photographers I am working with are teaming up with the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City. We have a few sponsors, including Pixel's Photo and Frame who will provide the printing. Hopefully we will be able to provide a photograph to over 60 families and individuals. I'll definity post more after the event.
