Cans for Comments

I love hearing from my clients and blog readers more than you’d ever know. Receiving comments and feedback is always a highlight to my day, no matter how I’m feeling!

So, when I was approached by Miranda of Blue Olive Photography and Lynn of Chris+Lynn to take part in a wonderful project to give back to the community AND get some blog love, I was in!

Here’s the deal…  for every comment I receive on any of my blog posts (past or present) in the next 7 days I will donate a canned good to the local food bank! It’s just that simple.. go ahead, try it out right now! You can comment on this post itself, or you can have a little dig through my archives and comment there.The wonderful thing is you’ll be helping bring food and comfort to those in need with nothing more than a few typed words!

As long as you’re commenting here with me why not check out and comment on the blogs of my fellow awesome photographer friends who are in on this as well! You can check them out here:

Thanks for sharing in our effort to make the holidays just a little bit easier for those in need! As someone who has received food donations as a child, I know how much this can mean to a person… no matter what time of year.

Thorne - Okay, this seriously rocks! All the more so because I am so broke this year that we’re eating our own canned food. (Which sux; but there it is. LOL) So… I won’t be able to join up and donate for comments, but I can still be a part of some giving by taking the time to visit and comment. So donate a couple for me, babes! Thanks to Shelly at This Eclectic Life! I’m makin’ the rounds!!
