Images For A Cure 2012 is here!

It's that time again!

I was tickled pink when I received an email from Kristen Weaver announcing that photographer registration for the 2012 Image For A Cure campaign was open!  This amazing organization is made up each year of a few hundred photographers from around the country, campaigning to raise money for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®.  So far, IFAC has proudly raised nearly $40,000 for the foundation...and I am so happy to have been a part of that!

As of this morning, my registration is complete!  This year marks my 3rd consecutive year as an Images For A Cure photographer...and I am looking forward to using my time and talent to make a difference in the lives of women!

In a few weeks, I will be releasing information on my exclusive mini sessions.  Just like the last two years, 100% of your session fee will be donated directly to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® by YOU!  Yep - that means you will have the opportunity to have some beautiful images taken while supporting a great cause!  Does it get any better than that?

Stay tuned for more information...coming your way soon!  And if you'd like to be one of the first people contacted with the details about this session, please email me at jenniferleighphotos@yahoo.com to get on my contact list.  I look forward to connecting with...and photographing...you!

Ohio Bound! {Cleveland Wedding Photographer}

I cannot tell you how excited I am for the week ahead of me!  I'm taking an 8 day tour of Ohio, my home state, with a few stops in Kentucky!  It's been over a year and half since I was last in Ohio for my sister's wedding.  A few things on my agenda I'm really looking forward to...

• Ya Ya (our adopted foster dog) meets her awesome forever family, and I get to see our former foster dog, Lucie
• Melissa & Dave's engagement session take place in Kentucky
• Time with Mom, my 2 sisters, my cousin and my grandparents
• A family session with 2 of my besties and their gorgeous little girl
• Kristen & Matt's engagement session...possibly at a vineyard in Geneva or Playhouse Square in Cleveland
• Another family session with a sweet little baby and her parents
• Slovenian food and polka-ing.  (I kid you not!  Sooo excited!)
• A very special trash-the-dress session in the woods in Kentucky

Next week, I won't be blogging much...but I will be working hard and playing hard.  I shall return with sneak peeks you won't want to miss! 

I leave you with an image of my assistant, Brittany, and me at the Images for a Cure photography workshop in Orlando earlier in the week. 

A big thank you to the awesome artists/presenters!  I loved connecting with each and every one of you!

I look forward to my third year as an Images for a Cure photographer this fall!  I love using my camera and artistic eye to raise money for amazing causes, such as the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!

And now to pack for my Ohio trip.  See you soon!  xo
