Hope for Haiti | Beauty Benefit Fundraiser
February 10, 2010Today I take you on a quick break away from the usual wedding related posts to bring to your attention an important cause that I took part in last weekend. It all started when I was contacted a few weeks ago by makeup artist Rhia Amio who I had previously worked with on Jenny and Brad’s wedding back last summer. She was wondering if I’d be interested in volunteering my photography services in a Hope for Haiti fundraising event. This beauty benefit would bring together many professional makeup artists, hair stylists, product sponsors, and photographers to raise money in support of Haiti. Attendees gave a small donation and enjoyed an afternoon of being pampered with makeup, hair, photography, free food, and generous surprise gift bags! I was one of the photographers who took some before and after photos of everyone but I also got to sneak in some videography which I always enjoy but seldom have time to indulge in.
Check out some of the photos and video! Also remember to do your part and donate today! www.redcross.ca/helpnow
