CNY SPCA "Walk and Four Legged Festival"...

What a great turnout for the annual CNY SPCA "Walk and Four Legged Festival" at Longbranch Park on Sunday. So many dogs and owners from all across Central New York participated in the walk. I think a great time was had by all who attended. Delicious food, activities and fun for the whole family.

Images from the event will be uploaded to my website shortly at http://www.imagesbykelly.com/. If you wish to purchase prints from the gallery I will be donating 50% of sales back to the CNY SPCA to help care for the animals.

Or you can make a donation directly to them here. Also, check their website for items they need donated such as blankets and food.

Think Pink

Images by Kelly Photography is excited to announce a partnership with Think Pink Photography. Think Pink Photography was founded in October 2007 to support individuals and their families who have been touched by breast cancer. We are a charitable organization that serves two main purposes – celebrating life and supporting the cause.

Through our professional photographer network, we are helping breast cancer patients to celebrate life with charitable photography sessions. Individuals may choose to document their fight against the disease before or during treatment, or prefer to capture their victory by scheduling a session within 12 months after treatment is completed. Photographers world-wide are now available to donate time and talent to celebrate life and support the cause. There is no cost or obligation to the breast cancer patient. Clients participating in a Think Pink Session will receive a complimentary photo session, as well as a set of 10 small prints from the session. They will also receive a discount on any additional portraits they wish to purchase, although there is absolutely no purchase required at any time.



To support the cause, we have partnered with The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. All funds generated through donations and various fundraising efforts are paid directly to The Eric R. Beverly Family Foundation. As a 3-time breast cancer survivor, Danielle Beverly and her husband Eric joined together to form a foundation dedicated to promoting education, increasing awareness, and providing support and resources for families who have been touched by breast cancer.

Please subscribe to our blog (on the Think Pink website) and tell your friends and family about Think Pink Photography. Awareness is everything and we can’t be successful without you.
I encourage you to view our website, make a donation, or hire a photographer that supports Think Pink Photography! If you hire me, mention Think Pink and I will make a personal donation to the organization. If you, or someone you know, would like to schedule a Think Pink session, please contact me for details.

I am very proud to be a network photographer with Think Pink Photography, and am anxious to get the word out about this amazing program. For more information, you can contact me, or you can visit the Think Pink Photography website at: http://www.thinkpinkphotography.org/

OpLove { Sacketts Harbor } ...

Another wonderful Operation Love Reunited family to share. We did this session on location at Sacketts Harbor. It is a special place for the family. Dad is serving his country and is currently deployed in Afghanistan. Mom is home with the two little ones and taking care of the house while he is gone. They are anxiously awaiting his safe return home.

Thank you to all of our courageous military men, women and families.

OpLove { Laura & Jesse }...

Another Operation Love Reunited session with a wonderful mom and her young son. Dad is proudly serving in Afghanistan and hasn't seen his family in over seven months. Mom is due with their second child in early September.

We went to Onondaga Lake Park for our session for more relaxed, unposed images. And honestly, when you have a 14 month old little one they don't want to sit in a studio for too long.

Even though baby Jesse wasn't feeling well, we had a great shoot. With an active toddler to chase around I was having a blast. And Jesse chased every bird and dog he could see.

Dad will be surprised to receive a photo album in the mail and I'm sure it will bring him to tears. I know I was a bit teary eyed as I was sorting through the images. I can only imagine how he'll feel seeing images of his wife and little boy. And how he'll want to come safely home to them soon.
