Puppies, Buddies & Schools { Clemmons, NC Children's Photographer / Pet Photography }

October has been a busy, busy month here at the studio ...and all around Clemmons!
In between all of the portrait sessions for families, seniors, pets & babies, we have had the honor of being asked to photograph several community events...and even a few historical moments.
As one of the committee members for The Dog Park at Tanglewood, we have been seeing the developments as they unfold. Plans are in the works to break ground in Spring 2012. When I think of all the time we will be spending there, it will mean even more knowing we we were there at the beginning. Many other people will feel the same way because there was a HUGE turnout for Bark4 the Park, an event heal earlier this month to raise awareness about the location and planning for the Dog Park.

Earlier that day we went to the 2nd Annual Race for Victor, a 5K walk/run that honors & helps Victor and others through the Pitt Hopkins Syndrome Fund.The fund is increase awareness and research in the understanding and treatment of Pitt Hopkins Syndrome and offer support to families receiving a PTHS diagnosis.

Then, in the middle of the month, we were photographing families at the Piedmont Down Syndrome Support Network Buddy Walk. It was a beautiful fall day for the many families who came out for this annual event that celebrates Down syndrome Awareness Month and to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome.

Finally, you may have heard a big sigh of relief from all who worked for many hours each week for months on the "Celebrating Our Schools" event, held at the new Morgan Elementary School just up the road from our studio. Frank Morgan, the school's namesake and a longtime teacher and principal for Clemmons' schools, was there along with other community leaders and hundreds of others to enjoy the entertainment, community service booths and all kinds of activities throughout the day.
