This made my day!!!!
Friday, September 9th, 2011Today I got a e-mail letting me know that a child I photographed for the Heart Gallery was recently permanently adopted.
The e-mail:
Dear Joshua, last September you too a Heart Gallery picture of Trenton, one of our children who is so medically complex the only placement we had for him was a nursing home a thousand miles from his home. Â You took a beautiful picture and thanks to your help, Trenton was placed with his forever family last week. Â Below are some pictures his new mom sent. Â The pictures are not as good as yours but I am sure you will agree, the quality of his life has certainly improved!!!! Â Thank you again for your help. Peggy
For several year now I have photographed children for the Heart Gallery in Miami and around South Florida. Â It is something I look forward to every year. Â Most of the time the children I photograph are older children that are normally harder to adopt. Â But with Trenton, he was what many consider to be the “unadoptable” because of his severe medical conditions.
Having a photo make it to the cover of a magzine or seeing your advertising photo on a bus bench or billboard is great…. But nothing beats hearing the great news that one of the kids you photographed for the heart gallery has been placed with a loving family! Â G-d bless the family that adopted Trenton.
