Please help me Help Japan...

My heart aches for the people of Japan. There are no words that can express all that I feel. Hearing the unbelievable stories and seeing the devastating images coming out of this region leaves me breathless. I can not even imagine all that these poor people are enduring. I have been trying to think of ways I could help and I think I found a way...but I am in need of your help.

I would like to give a way a FREE One Hour Session that will include 10 high resolution digital files with print release and a 8x10 print of your choice.

To enter simply donate any amount to one of the Organizations I list below to help the children and families in Japan. Simply email me a copy of your receipt at amanda@dimondaphotography.com and you will be entered to win the Free Session. I will choose a winner on Monday March 21st, 2011.

Below are a few organizations that are working on relief and recovery in Japan.
American Red Cross
Save the Children
Shelter Box
Convoy of Hope
The Salvation Army

Don't forget to email me your receipt to enter the drawing. The Session is good for a child or family 1 hour session anytime this year, 2011. xo

"A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song."

Maya Angelou

I recently found this quote and I loved it. It reminds me of children and childhood. Simplicity. It is nice to remember to just sing because it is in you. What ever your song maybe. Try it today...it is like a breath of fresh air! ♥

And...speaking of little birds who sing because he has a song...I would like to introduce Mr. M. He is such a handsome lil' man with a gentle spirit. He was amazing. Thank you to both him and his sweet Mommy too! I had such a fun little session. Happy 1st Birthday!!! xo
