CHILDREN'S TRUST




THE CHILDREN'S TRUST, MIAMI HEART GALLERY held it's opening at the Freedom Tower in Miami on Friday, June 12th. I had two images displayed in the gallery, one of two sisters Georgianna and Georgie, I shot at Fair Child's Gardens. This was a group effort by mostly South Florida photographers, stylist and the Trust. I was honored to participate along with fellow photographers Carl Juste, Jeffrey Salter and Al Diaz.

MIAMI, FL – June 12, 2009 – For the second consecutive year, The Children’s Trust is spearheading an initiative promoting the adoption of foster children in Miami-Dade County called the The Children’s Trust Miami Heart Gallery. This groundbreaking work in Miami-Dade County seeks adoptive parents for 58 children, and the museum-quality exhibit features portraits of those available for adoption, photographed by some of the world’s top photographers. Based on a national model of other Heart Galleries in cities across the United States, the Miami Heart Gallery captures the unique personality of the children through portraits taken at Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and Amelia Earhart Park. The photographs will be on exhibit to the public from Saturday, June 13 through Sunday, July 12 at The Freedom Tower, located at 600 N. Biscayne Blvd., Miami, FL 33132. The exhibition will be open Tuesdays thru Fridays, 12 p.m. – 5 p.m. and on Saturdays, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. and will subsequently travel to different venues throughout Miami-Dade County.
