The Book: This will be a compilation of personal photo essays documenting
the unique faces that have been affected by the disease including current
patients, survivors, family members, doctors, brides to be, and especially
the women who donate their wedding gowns to my charity of choice, Brides
against Breast Cancer.
The Contents: Each photo subject will have their story told through a
portrait, my photo narrative and personalized questionnaire, displayed in
the book with a sample of their actual handwriting.
Unique Perspective: My fresh, creative style will tastefully capture the
physical and emotional triumphs of all of those affected while embracing the
inspiration and emotion around the theme of weddings.
Photo Subjects: I am asking for your help in finding subjects to fuel this
project. I am willing to travel all over to find dedicated and open
subjects, and would like to include my own experience and travel as part of
the text to be combined with the photos. All participants will have the
opportunity to share their personal story and contribute to an amazing
cause. They will also receive a copy of the photo session on DVD, a 50%
discount on wedding photography, and signed copies of the book.
Charity: Philanthropy is very important to me, thus once the book is
published I plan to donate a portion of the proceeds to Brides for Breast
Cancer to make dreams come true for affected brides on their wedding day.

Audience: I believe that brides, magazines, families, and vendors
involved
in the wedding industry would be very interested in an editorial photo book
on this subject and will be pitching to various entities once I gather
content for the project. I am marketing to major bridal shops, such as Vera
Wang and Barneys, as well as Revlon, In Style Weddings, cancer research
centers, and other cure related operations.
