Yesterday’s Hero Wall Celebration was a heart-thumping event. It was so great to see all of the families together, and to hear great music, watch the kids get their faces painted and rejoice in some health improvements. It is a true honor to be work with these families. Huge THANK YOU to Pro Photo Supply and George McGinnis for donating the file prep and printing of the wall, and to DigiCraft for mounting the prints.

It was an honor to be selected to create images for the Urban League’s State Of Black Oregon report, released in July 2009. They used my images on the cover of the report, as well as in the body of the report. A launch ceremony will be held on July 27 at 10:00am outside of the World Trade Center.
