Have you offered your photography services for a charitable cause? Charity and photography are not usually heard of too much in our area.
Do you offer or have you thought about offering your services to a charitable organization? If you have thought about it, have you talked to the organization about it?
Please share your thoughts and ideas...Thanks!

I don't know if this counts as charity...but I'm doing free sessions in local animal shelters. They always need photographers who will make photos for posters, flyers, ads, web galleries etc. I'm counting something like ten years of helping them this way, and have to say - I never regretted a single moment spent there.

This is awesome and counts in my book. This is a great way to help the community and to help find homes for pets in waiting! Our girl scouts have helped for some time in our area with animal shelters in different ways. I think helping in the community is a great way, especially when you can use your photography skills or knowledge!

Samy,
This is great to hear! And, yes I agree that sometimes we forget about being charitable or do not "see" hidden opportunities. Congrats on the completing the marathon! I bet it was a wonderful experience for you!

Jimbo,
Glad to hear and thanks for sharing your photo - it is absolutely adorable (the dog, too)! I love laboradors! This looks just like the one I had growing up as a child!
