Part One – Photo-marathon
A day of back-to back short portrait-sessions (5-10 minutes). Véronique and Michael are hoping to photograph at least 200 portrait-sessions ($60 minimum donation per session). 100% of donations will go to the Canadian Red Cross. Representatives from the Red Cross will be present to collect the donations and issue tax receipts. If the demand is great enough, Véronique and Michael are prepared to keep photographing all weekend long! The portrait-sessions are open to individuals, couples and families. Within two weeks of the event, the participants will be able to pick up a CD-ROM with 2 digital images for personal use (not for corporate or commercial use).
For more information or to book an approximate time slot, please contact Véronique da Silva at: info@dasilvafoto.com, or by phone: (250) 590-2625. Participants may also show up without booking a time.
