Life is full of challenges and triumphs (we can all attest to that) but this year we have experienced a moment like no other and we are still feeling the effects collectively as a nation. I am so grateful that I was able to teach an advanced photography class with The Pablove Foundation in the fall of 2019. Our class was centered around expanding the students’ photography skills while discussing what it means to advocate for pediatric cancer. The 11 participants experienced childhood cancer and they were motivated to share their stories with everyone. I learned more than I could have imagined from them and I am so excited to share their work with you.

We will be having a live virtual gallery show on Thursday, September 17, 2020 • 6-7 PM via Zoom. Please RSVP here: https://give.pablove.org/event/pablove-new-york-shutterbugs-2020-advanced-class-virtual-gallery-show/e270463.

I want to share a few video segments so you can view some of the work and hear their journey. I also encourage everyone to visit The Pablove Foundation website to view each complete portfolio here: https://www.pabloveprints.com/product-category/advancedcourse/2019nyadvanced/. Prints are available for purchase, with 100% of proceeds dedicated to reaching our class goal of funding one Powered by Pablove research grant.
