Save-A-Limb Fundraiser | Family Photographer Berlin, MD

In honor of our son, Brayden, we have formed Team Footprints for Brayden to raise money for the Rubin Institute of Advanced Orthopedics.  The Save-A-Limb Fund is set up by the hospital to help the hospital financially assist patients who cannot afford housing, transportation, physical therapy or adaptive equipemnt.  It also helps the physicians offer free consultations to patients who qualify for financial aid.  The fund supports the fight to save limbs from amputation and provide hip and knee replacements to patients in need both domestically and abroad.  You can read more about how the funds are used here:

I will be donating a lot of my time and photography resources to help raise money for the fund by doing these sessions. After each mini-session I will be editing the top 12 images and delivering them to the client on a flash drive.  Clients will be allowed to print the photos at a printer of their choice. 

These sessions would be great for holiday cards or beach family photos when you want a handful of images to make cards or use for gifts.  These sessions will not be eligible to use on newborn sessions.

Sessions must be prepaid in advance of the session and the $200 does include the session fee.  A signed model release will be required to make a blog post about each session (no client names will be used).  I would love to share at least one photo from each of the sessions on our blog to show the support for our team, "Footprints for Brayden".

Brayden turns 2! | Professional Child Photographer - Berlin, Ocean City, Salisbury, MD

 

I can't believe this little guy, my little guy, just turned the big two!!!  For those that have not met my family, Brayden has PFFD in his left leg.  His left femur is a few inches shorter than his right.  He wears a lift shoe for balance and an AFO brace to stablize his ankle and keep it from rolling when he walks and runs.  We have put together a team, "Footprints for Brayden" (also the name of his blog if you google it), and will be walking proudly in the save-a-limb walk/ride this fall to benefit the Rubin Institute for Advanced Orthopedics at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, MD.

The cupcake photos are hilarious.  He is the first child I have taken photos of to actually lick the floor when he dropped the cake.  I love this boy!  These photos show a lot of his character and how happy-go-lucky of a kid he really is!
