First Place Winners!! $1,500 Gift Card
Burke Family:
As a busy family of 4, the Burke family finds themselves working different shifts while their kids are growing up too quickly! Their two young boys are the best of friends and enjoy playing outdoors in the sand, water and anywhere really, so long as they are together, it’s pure bliss.
Laura would love to stop time and have those precious moments captured of them with their boys. Previously she didn’t want to be in pictures, but after a ton of hard work, she has seen significant weight loss and would love nothing more for her family than to be able to look back and remember these times with everyone including herself in the photos.
Second Place - $500 Gift Card
Brandy and family:
The soft touch of her Grandma's silky but firm grip says it all for Brandy. This Grandma has endured the loss of her husband and son, was the backbone through a tragic accident that left Brandy's mom paralyzed with brain damage and is now nurturing her other daughter through stage 4 cancer. She walks through life humbly, knowing not to "borrow trouble" and to take one day at a time.
Brandy would love nothing more than to give these three women - her Grandmother, her Mom and her Aunt, a day that they can look forward to, one that they can get dressed up for and feel like their problems aren't as big as they are. She would be over the moon to have this memory to look back on and celebrate the story of the enduring strength of these women.
Third Place - $500 Gift Card
Lerman Family:
With a heart for adoption, the Lerman's have opened their home to 2 rambunctious boys and 1 beautiful girly girl that have brought so much joy and laughter to their lives. Their oldest is all boy - full of energy, wild and crazy and loves going to kindergarten. Their little girl is as girly as they come - loves to play dress up, sings, dances, twirls and plays make believe. While their littlest who just came to them a few months ago is learning to roll over, smile and is just the happiest little boy (not pictured since adoption process is not yet finalized).
Amy knows that these moments are fleeting and would cherish these photographs forever so that she can always remember who her children are today and the relationship that they have in this moment.
