Calling Atlanta-based exceptional people! VI Photography and David Carr Photography are partnering for a very special project. We plan to publish a photo book this year featuring exceptional people living with different abilities, participating in our world in an extraordinary way with intellectual, physical, or not so visible challenges.
Some disabilities are visual, yet many are not. Either way, misconceptions surrounding disabilities need to be eliminated… And that all comes from knowledge. My friend Kim said, “People are curious and want to know, but often just stare. We encourage you to ask questions and greet our children. These questions instead of stares will change the future. Questions lead to answers and answers lead to knowledge.”
Our goal with this book is to elevate knowledge. We’re showcasing stories and want to share with the world what is encouraged to say and what is NOT okay to say to these children and their families. We want to share Pictures, Voices, and Stories to give knowledge and promote acceptance.
Please consider participating in one of two ways: - Photo & story feature: We are offering a complimentary 15-minute portrait session for exceptional children. The photos will be featured in a printed book.
- Share Your Story: We would love you to share your story. Note, you can share your name or remain anonymous.
If you’re interested please click the link below. By filling out the form, you will be added to our list of interested participants. We will follow up to let you know if you have secured a spot. Photoshoot dates are planned for 2/20, 3/12, and 3/26.
Thank you for considering being part of this most special project!
