From the Charity Auction: Milla Family

Since this is my first year of owning my photography business I have decided to start a tradition of every Christmas season donating my services as a photographer to charity. This year I decided to donate a session to the Children's Relief Nursery (www.crn4kids.org) charity auction. The family that bid and won was the Milla Family whose photos will be today and tomorrow. They have some of the cutest girls I've ever had the pleasure of photographing and their grandfather was also in town so we braved the rain and took some pictures on the east waterfront by OMSI.

Whether it's a Christmas gift for your husband, wife, child or friend, the act of giving is a show of love and appreciation. It also satisfies a basic need in all of us to please another. All too often, though, we forget about the larger purpose of giving, the purpose giving Christmas gifts to charity can fulfill.

Of course the act of giving a gift to a loved one or someone close to you has an immediate positive impact in seeing the joy on their face as they receive the gift and then them lighting up when they see how much you thought and cared to pick that particular gift for them.

Thanks. Giving to charity and to those truly in need does feel different than giving to loved ones.
