Help Portrait – December 10th

On December 10th, we’ll be taking part in the worldwide event, Help Portrait. Help Portrait, founded by celebrity photographer Jeremy Cowart, is a global movement of photographers – from diverse cities as Clarksburg, West Virginia, to Milan, Italy – volunteering their time, camera gear, and expertise during the holiday season to give a person or families in need the gift of a portrait. Help Portrait takes place each December, and the events are independently organized, often through a local nonprofit to find their subjects. We are excited to participate this year through SF Camerawork’s First Exposures mentoring program at the Bayview Opera House!
