SPARC Photo Fundraiser

My children are far apart in age—our son is 17 and our daughter is 9—and I worried it would not be possible to get intimate, loving photos of them together. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Jessica engaged my children with each other and with her. The photos exceeded my expectations. Visitors to our home almost always ask who the photographer was. — Marianne V.

My daughter's picture softens the room and everyone who can't help but to stare at it. — Lizette A.

Working with Portrait Playtime was the perfect fundraiser for our La Leche Leauge group! We hosted the locations for the photo shoots, spread the word to fill up the schedule, and they did everything else. Not only did we raise money for our group, but everyone who participated was delighted with the photos that were taken. The portrait of my family captures each personality perfectly. — Jenn Griffith

What I love about my photos is that Jessica completely captured the essence of my two children at different stages and ages. Their quirks, their expressions and their personalities. When I look at our family photos I feel like I've entered a little time capsule where I can experience memories that I may have otherwise have forgotten. Thank you Jessica, what a treasure! — Michelle W.

Working with Jessica was 100% enjoyable—from the photo shoot to the final product. The magnificent shoots captured the true essence of my daughter's personality. I love my pictures!! — Lori B.

Our session with Portrait Playtime was so much fun that I almost forgot we were there to take pictures. Jessica really captured my children’s personalities and our family dynamic in the images. I am very happy with our pictures and I know we will enjoy them for years to come. — Maggie T.

Jessica captured the spirit and personality of each of my 3 boys, she was patient calm and sweet and the photographs are treasures for our family — Alisa H.

Working with Jessica on my headshots was a delight -- she was diligent, creative, enthusiastic and playful, and the whole process was fun. The photos were great and my publisher is thrilled! — Benjamin R.

Your photographs are brilliant. Looking at them, you immediately know that our campers are interested, active, challenged and engaged. If you look at the pictures on any other camp web site, you see only posed pictures of smiling campers with their arms around each others' shoulders. — Shane Mishkin

Jessica and through her, Portrait Playtime made some beautiful portraits of our family. We were especially happy with Jessica's ability to get everyone to relax and "act" natural. My in-laws are in their 90s and it is not easy to get them to loosen up, but Jessica did, and the pictures are a tribute to her abilities as a photographer. Thanks Portrait Playtime! — Nancy S.

Jessica knew how to engage the boys so that the photo session was very easy. The pictures are beautiful and we will treasure them forever. — Kristin H.

Doing a fundraiser with Jessica was easy, and enjoyable. I loved watching her interact with babies, children and adults to create great portraits. — Marianne V.
