TLC Show Prompts Portrait Giveaway

BerryTree Photography has a special promotion going on right now that was inspired by the owner's faith in God, and a bit of watching the television show 19 Kids and Counting.

Photographer Sarah Bezila started thinking about what Michelle Duggar, star of the TLC reality show and mother to 19 children, was saying on the show when she spoke about having a servants heart that looks for opportunities to serve others. 

Sarah started Berry Tree Photography in 2009 and has since enjoyed taking pictures of many families, weddings and events in the area. As a renowned  photographer, she wishes to share the gift that God has given her with others, including a family who would not normally be calling for her services.  

Photography sessions are expensive and many families, especially today, simply can not afford such a luxury.

She is looking for a special family to share her gift with.  Whether that family has one child or many children does not matter for the give away, as long as they have a lot of love and a need. If you know a family who would love to have a professional portrait session but simply can not afford it, this is your chance to do something nice for them and send in a nomination.

Until Saturday, March 5, nominations are being accepted for a family to receive the following package that is valued at over $1500:

• One-hour photography session
• New wardrobe for the portrait session compliments of BerryTree Photography
• 20 digital images on a jump drive
• A special photo gift to be chosen by the photographer

The rules on the nominations are:

• You cannot nominate yourself, and the person nominated must sincerely be incapable of purchasing her services.
• The nominee must reside in or within one hour of Canton.
• You must e-mail the full story to sarah@berrytreephotography.com
• Be sure to include who you know, the children’s ages, what they’re experiencing, and why they are deserving.

Make sure to include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself in your email and feel free to include a photo of the family.

The family will be chosen on March 7. Check back with Patch for continuing coverage of this event.
