Help-Portrait is a movement started by photographer Jeremy Coward. The mission is simple, but hugely impactful: find people in need, help them look their best with free hair and makeup styling, take and print their photo, then give them the photo for free. I participated in this concept a few years ago at a Kansas City event and decided to bring it to my local community of Steamboat Springs, Colorado this year, including a few extras like framed prints.
A huge thanks to everyone who volunteered to provide this awesome service to over 50 guests, especially Jessica Schlapkohl and Stephanie Herman for hair and makeup services, photographers Roger Good and Corey Kopischke, and all of my photography clients whose purchases paid for the prints and frames through my #100PercentToCharity program.
