To bring everyone up to speed, I was invited to Tupelo Children's Mansion (an orphanage in Mississippi) for a photo shoot a couple weeks ago. (To catch yourself up, read my post and view the images from the day here: TCP).
Upon leaving there, I decided to help them with an endeavor to raise $100,000 in the next several weeks. If I could help with just .01% I'd be very glad.
Meet the Mansion Champions
Chris and Christina are twin orphans that live at the Tupelo Childrens mansion. Their story is incredible. They are enrolled in a 5K run in Florida with the sole purpose of raising awareness and funds for the place they call home. The cause is noble, and I want to do EVERYTHING I can to help. These shots are from a session we had with the champs during my stay at Tupelo. Their web page and story can be read here: Mansion Champions
BUY MY RANDOM PHOTOS
For the next 7 days ALL proceeds from prints sold through my proofing site will go DIRECTLY to the Mansion. I'm not holding back a dime. If you are a client and you choose to buy prints from your wedding, engagement portrait, senior, music, commercial or ANY other shoot, you may do so. ALL proceeds will go straight to Tupelo Children's Mansion. I realize that many of you are not clients and have not had a session from me so for you I've uploaded some of my random photo art that I've taken through the years. It's a real mixed bag. I'll be first to say that I'm a people shooter first. These random shots were chosen so that folks of all interest could participate. I've also made the prints from the session at Tupelo available for purchase. I know of no better cause.

SPREAD THE WORD
If you're on Facebook, POST IT.
If you have a blog, LINK IT.
If you have a megaphone, YELL IT.
If you have a phone, CALL SOMEONE.
Lets help the orphans folks. You'll be a better human for it. For the next 7 days this post will remain at the front page of my blog. I'd love for you to help!
Blessings.

Very Awesome of you dude. Truly shows what great character you have by doing this. If I can be of help in anyway at all, don't hesitate to ask.
You've always inspired me, and I've been devouring your blog for the last few days. I think what you're doing is amazing!
Sam I think this is wonderful of you to do. Let me know if I can be any help. I ordered my favorite 8x10 and would love to do more if I can.
Those photos of the twins brought tears to my eyes. Wow.
