Giving Back 2012 | Lacey/Olympia Area Photographer

Recently  I read an article about a family that was dealing with one of life's toughest cards- their little girl was battling cancer. Being a mother (and an aunt) I cannot fathom what that family is going through. During this time, it was important to the mother to find a photographer to take their family photos. Anyone that has (or knows anyone that has) dealt with a medical emergency or a long-term illness is aware of the insane medical bills, so affording a photographer (when you need one the most) can be an issue. So, that got me thinking...maybe its time to simply give back to someone in need, or someone that deserves it. Hence the campaign "Giving Back 2012". No matter what it is they are dealing with (or have dealt with) in life- whether medical issues, financial hardship, the loss of a loved one, etc...all stories will be read and considered. Also please note that the actual story will not be publicized in any manner.

How Will it Work?

 First let me state that this session will come with a disk, so financially there is absolutely nothing that is required.  

Nominations will be excepted June 15th- July 15th only.

In your email, please tell AHP the following:

1) Name of person/people being nominated.
2)Relationship to those nominated
3)A brief description of the person/family
4)Their story/why they are deserving
5) Location of those nominated
6) Email in which you can be contacted
7) Lastly, attach a photograph

*Facebook is in no way affiliated with Giving Back, 2012.*

Once nominations are received, the top three will be chosen and an email will be sent to the address that was provided.

 Then voting will began. 

Voting will run from July 16th- August 1st only.

 In order to vote, you must first "like" Angie Hollenbeck Photography. During the voting period, the families name and photo will be in the "Giving Back 2012" Album (located in Photos).

 Once again, it will just be the name and photo...no particular information regarding the nomination will be included. This is the time to urge friends and family members to get on, like AHP's Facebook page, and vote!

The winner will be announced on my Facebook page and blog only so please check on and around August 2nd.

The winner must email me within 48 hours of the time voting closes to claim their session or the one in 2nd place will be chosen.
