This North Carolina Children, Youth, and Families at Risk (CYFAR) project uses community gardening to: empower communities to produce food for families, deliver hands-on nutrition education, create opportunities for youth to develop agri-related business skills, build leadership among community members, and provide engaging activities for family members of all ages to work together for a common purpose.

Holiday photography - Special offer to families and friends of the Briggs Ave Garden

During the next 2 months, families gather and celebrate the season.  I'm pleased to provide this special first time offer to capture your family memories.   For those of you with families visiting from outside of the area, this may be the only time during the year that they visit.  Using the beautiful surroundings of the Sarah P. Duke Gardens annual Christmas trees display inside or the Garden's Rollins White Garden outside, I can provide you with a 30 minute portrait session.  Following the session, I would provide multiple electronic images professionally edited on CD.  These images could be used as holiday cards, in holiday cards or for framing in your home. The cost of the session is a flat fee of $99.  I can only do this at this price because I have multiple sessions in one location.  For an additional charge, I could go to another location of your choice.  

Since I started my photography business focused on charitable giving last year, I am pleased to report that I have been able to donate approximately $50,000 to (mostly) local charities.  In this period, $25,000 has been donated to the Durham Rescue Mission's new shelter, which is almost complete.

All profits from these photo sessions would be donated to the Briggs Avenue Community Garden and the Sarah P. Duke Gardens.  Reservations are required - dates depend upon availability in the Doris Duke Center of Duke Gardens.  Call or email me at rick@rickfishersphotography.com or 919-599-5585.
