The YMCA Portrait Project

This is a pretty big deal to me. I have been working out at the Y for a few months now, and every time I would walk in there, I would notice how boring and grey the walls seemed. I felt like it is such a family friendly place, and people in our community truly love the safe environment that the Y provides...and I can genuinly say, that everyone I know has either child hood memories or current positive memories of the Y.

Recently, I went to the CEO of my local YMCA and approached him about hanging portraits with testimonial from each person that I photograph. My goal is to hang 30-50 20"x24" portraits of YMCA members. In the last 2 weeks, I have photographed 30 families. It has truly been an honor to get to know these families whom I might not have had the opportunity to get to know. So, if any of you participated in this project, I THANK YOU!

If you live locally, please stop by the Y. Leave a donation. Be a part of our community! Today is the Y's OPEN HOUSE. Stop by and see the beautiful people I put on the walls!

I am posting SOME of the portraits in random order - apparently BLOGSPOT has changed to only uploading one item at a time! anyway, here you go! check them out and post a comment...
