first of all for any photogs out there that don’t know what I am talking about.. here is the site..Celebrating Adoption
and a small blurb from their site
“Celebrating Adoption came into existance in early 2006. I was asked to photograph a family as they prepared to start the adoption process. One of the images from the session was to be used on the file given to prospective birth mothers. As a strong believer in adoption, I was very touched by the love that this family had for each other and the hope they held to add another child to their family. I wanted to celebrate with this family when they brought their new baby home so I offered a free session. It was a long road for this family with many tears shed as they waited for their child. In the meantime, I was introduced to more adoptive families that wanted to include the art of professional portraiture in their celebration. I have been blessed to photograph domestic adoptions, international adoptions, infants and older children. With each family, the Celebrating Adoption concept formed in my mind. Photographers from across the country asked to be part of the program, many of them adoptive parents themselves. ” Jennifer
