We were privileged to be around for the Help-Portrait Lima event.
You can learn more about Help Portrait here, but in a nutshell it's an international movement of photographers who are using there time, equipment, and expertise to give back to those who are less fortunate.
The Lima event took place at Our Daily Bread Soup Kitchen on December 11. The event was organized locally by photographer Eric Meffley but there were many other individuals who brought their unique gifts to the day. Some of these included providing makeup, helping to print the photos as soon as they were shot and passing the pictures out. The day wasn't about names or titles or who was involved - it was simply about giving.
Around 200 portraits were shot and printed to a group of very grateful people.
We had the opportunity to be a sort of "fly on the wall" and shoot some footage on a Digital SLR Camera, the Nikon D300s. The purpose of the video wasn't so much for professional use but rather as a way to unobtrusively document the events of the day. Eric Meffley edited some clips and has posted them on YouTube here.
