Wish Upon A Hero | Columbus Ohio baby photographer

I’ve been slacking off on my posting sessions, must get back in the habit! :-)

But I just wanted to take a moment to talk about this organization,Wish Upon A Hero.  I’d never heard of it before.  But a week or so ago, I got a call from a wish ambassador, on behalf of baby Leighton’s family, who made a wish to have a special family day and do have a family portrait taken.  They explained their situation and asked if I would be willing to donate my services for their pictures.  I said “Sure!” and went online to read about them.  Here is their wish and their story:

Wish upon a Hero is an organization web site where ordinary people can wish, and ordinary people can be a hero in a small way.  I personally always find it more satisfying to donate a bag of clothes to someone who can use it, than to anonymously drop it off somewhere, where I’m not totally sure where they’ll end up.  If someone does something nice for you, you can pay it forward and do something meaningful for someone else.

So this session that I’m about to blog, was their “Hero” session, and very special to both myself and them.  Baby Leighton is 6 months old, and sweet as pie.  Mom & Dad were so excited to finally get some pictures of her, and they came with their cowboy boots and hat to show their Texas pride.  Here are some of my favorites from their 6 month baby photography session:

    Hi,

    I just wanted to Thank You for reaching out to this family and doing the photo session for them. These are truly fantastic pictures and you are a Super Hero to this family. I have been communicating with this mom for a few months via Wish Upon a Hero and it is great to put faces with the names. I do not think anyone could have been more deserving of this special gift you have given them. You do awesome work.

    Sincerely,
    Beth Grant
