Random sightings from Nancy Crase. |
On July 20 I escaped the hot desert for a summer camp in the mountains outside Payson, Arizona. There, I was one of five photographers to volunteer for Flashes of Hope, an organization that provides portraits of serious ill children for their families. Together, we captured in one morning all the portraits of the participants at the camp. We were assigned groups by their activities. Mine were out fishing. Here are some of my favorites.
I was impressed by the recent cover story in the Sept issue of PDN of all the places photographers can volunteer their services. These photos are some I took at a portrait session last April with children in Flashes of Hope through the local chapter of ASMP in Phoenix, Arizona. It was an exhausting day but every child's personality melted away any fatigue as I saw the best in the human spirit. Fit it in to your schedule. Volunteering was very rewarding in so many ways.
