Time Flies!
I know, I know, you're probably tired of hearing from me, and if you aren’t yet, I am grateful you are here. I am grateful for all of you. My community is beautiful. This project truly is special. I have already been getting messages like these, and we haven't even put it on here in Boise yet:
"Hi Aubrey,
I wanted to let you know how much of a blessing these pictures are for us. Let me give you a little background. We have been fostering for about 15 years. It is our goal to help families reunify. But sometimes that is not possible. We have a sibling group of 3 that have lived with us for over 3 years. We love them so much. We are blessed to be adopting them on the 27th! We are doing what we can to make this special. We had been talking about getting a family photo and the kids had already picked out outfits for adoption day we just needed a photographer. (by the way, we are all matching pretty formal, dresses, ties the whole thing and the color is light blue in case that is helpful.) They are so excited and so are we and this photo will mean so much to all of us thanks.
My husband and I have 7 kids still at home"
I know this is right. I know that we are supposed to do this. I just need help. If sponsorship isn't your cup of tea, we are happy to take any donation amount, even $1. We will come do the work to earn a donation if you need help or volunteers. I can offer photography work if you have a need for that. Also, a shout-out or passing this along to anyone else who could be touched by it would go so far. We have quite a ways to meet our goal of $5000.
The link below gives all the information about the project in more detail:

Link to our video (also loaded with info):
One thing that isn't mentioned in the video is the families we are working with locally. That $5000 is to cover the costs of both the local and Mexico events. We already have some BIG things in store if we can meet our goals. We will be changing families' lives with the items we are trying to get them.
If you have anything to give we would be so grateful.
We are also taking gently used clothes to donate to the families as well. So we need to gather more of that as well.
I am happy to meet in person, on video, over the phone, by text, email, or anything you need, because I need you.
Our Venmo is @aubsfamilyphotos or we can discuss other payment options. Just let me know!
Thank you :)
