I always love photographing YWCA Recessionistas (and Recessionisto’s – gotta give a shout out to the guys, too!) to help promote their Secret Seconds stores in Missoula for a few different reasons:
- Our shoots are always a blast!
- These volunteer models have mega awesome fashion sense (from clothes they find at the stores – that’s important to know!).
- Most importantly, it’s for a great cause!
The lovely folks from NCBI Missoula certainly lived up to these three things and, despite it being a bit windy (with the slight danger of going all Mary Poppins on the shoot with our rainbow umbrella), we all had a great time making images for a good cause. And, I’ve got to say, I think I now want everyone I photograph to wear a bright red union suit. (I kid, I kid – but how incredible is THAT find, right?!)
Last but not least, don’t forget why the YWCA is so important to our community – all sales at the Missoula YWCA‘s Secret Seconds thrift stores help women and children in crisis, including the YWCA’s domestic violence shelter. Talk about a great bargain – getting some new-to-you duds AND helping out a great cause. Thrift away my friends!
On the docket – portraits and the first wedding of the year!
Cheers,
