For a while now, I’ve had this little vision on my heart of finding a way to use the photography gift God has given me and use it in a way to help and serve others.

I’ve been thinking, praying, and trying to figure out exactly what that could look like.

This is what God has helped me figure out. 🤍

And today, I’m finally putting it into motion, and I’m SO excited to introduce….

🎁📸 PICTURE IT FORWARD 📸🎁
with Mary E. Nelson Photography

Let me explain lol…👇🏻🥰

My hope is to make this a twice-a-year tradition (two different times of the year, two different reasons), finding different ways to give back to local children and families while doing something I absolutely love. 📸♥️

What better time to kick off the very first one than CHRISTMAS?! 🎄🎅🏻✨

For my first Picture It Forward, I’ll be doing a Christmas-Themed Photo Mini’s of course lol! 📸🎄

I’m partnering with Friends of the Children – Eastern Oregon 🤝 to help provide specific items that local children and families truly need.

🎁 Instead of paying me for a Christmas mini session, you’ll bring a donation from their specific needs list, and in return, I’ll capture some sweet Christmas memories for your family! 📸

The best part? 🥰 Every donation goes directly toward helping children and families right here in our community! ♥️🏡

📝 Friends of the Children are working on finalizing the donation list I need, so everyone who signs up will receive the current needs list by email before their session. 💌

🎄 EVENT DETAILS 🎄

📅 Saturday, November 14th
⏰ 10 AM – 2 PM
📸 15-minute Christmas mini sessions
🎁 Donation in place of session fee
❤️ Limited spots available! (12)

🎄 SIGN-UPS ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN! 🎄

🔗 I’ll post the booking link in a separate post!

I don’t know exactly how big Picture It Forward will grow (or if at all), but I’m excited to see where God takes it. 🙏🏻♥️

My hope is that something as simple as a photograph can help create a whole lot of good. 🤍

Give what they need. Get a memory in return. ♥️🎁📸

What a privilege it was to have the opportunity to photograph the La Grande High School Class of 2027 seniors this year! 💙🐯🖤

From band and cheer to football and cross country, I had so much fun capturing these amazing seniors and creating something special to celebrate their final year!

There’s something pretty special about getting to be a small part of these milestones and creating memories that these kiddos and their families can look back on for years to come.

Thank you, LHS, for trusting me with your senior photos! It truly means so much! 📸🤍
