I am making a video documentary about breast cancer and its effects on a local scale in hopes to shed light on early detection. I am calling out to anyone who can help me with this project. Here is what I need:
1) Anyone diagnosed with breast cancer and is willing to share their story with me on video. I'll also be doing a photo portrait of each person (for the video).
2)Contacts: I need people who know about breast cancer, who know facts & figures about how many cases in Morehead/Rowan/etc., who are willing to talk about early detection, etc.
If you know of someone I should talk to, please contact me.
Thank you for your help with this project!

Let me tell you a little more about myself.
My cousin died last month after a two year battle with cancer (started as colon cancer) and she was a humanitarian who helped many people in her lifetime. I have been inspired by my cousin and I want to do something to help. I want to to put faces and personal stories together with the facts and numbers. I want to help other women find it sooner. I want to inform people about breast cancer. This isn't some big budget film, it is just a record of people's life and stories in dealing with breast cancer and how early detection can help save the lives of other women.
My background is in graphic design, videography, and I currently have a photography studio here in Morehead. I want to use these gifts to create a video that will educate the community, honor the survivors, and push the urgency of early detection. If you think this is something you'd be interested in doing, please let me know. I want to interview people in their "own space". Somewhere you are comfortable, somewhere that is personal to you (i.e., desk at work, home, etc). Basically, I will want to hear your story with breast cancer and how early detection helps. I'd also like to do a quick portrait in my studio to compliment the documentary in which you'll receive a free 5x7 print for participating.
Feel free to forward this information to anyone who might be interested. Please pass along any ideas you may have this project as well :)
You may reach me at the studio 606-784-2626 or my cell 606-462-0585 if you want to talk about the project or schedule a time for your interview.

First Annual Grandparents' Week 2010
I only have two grandparents left: Fyrl and Clayton. If you know them, you know that Mammaw (Fyrl) is a fabulous cook, incredibly book smart, and has a fabulous green thumb. However, the things I love most about Mammaw is how she randomly recites poetry and how she loves rocks as much as I do. If you know my papaw, you know he has a garden as big as Texas and shares that produce with most of the community, you probably also know he's got a dirty joke for every occasion. But what I love most about Papaw is his stories. He has had an exciting life, helped shape Rowan County, and has a heart of gold.
But what you don't know about my grandparents is that they REFUSE to have their picture made. Whether its Christmas, birthdays, or Thanksgiving, they shun the camera. I can understand them not wanting to preserve their wrinkles in a photograph, but I love and adore those wrinkles and one day will miss every single one. So, in honor of my onery grandparents, I'm holding the First Annual Grandparents' Week!
Push, Pull, or kidnap your grandparents, parents (or anyone you love over the age of 55) and bring them in for a quick and painless portrait. Its free, no session fee required and packages start as low as $30. Individual prints are only $10 each.
WHEN: Wednesday, Thursday & Friday 12-5 PM (Feb. 3,4,5)
WHAT: Free portrait session to anyone over 55 years young (15 mins); packages start $30
WHERE: Chrissy Perkins Photography Studio (located next to Gym Dandy Gymnastics and Morehead Electric on highway 32 in Morehead, KY)
FAQ:
Q. DO I NEED AN APPOINTMENT?
A. If the only way to get them there is by surprise attack, bring it on, walk-ins are welcome! However, 15 minute appointments are available throughout the day.
Q. DO I PAY ANYTHING THAT DAY?
A. If you want to take advantage of the very reduced package rates, you will need to place your order that day, otherwise you'll have to choose from our regular rates. Packages start at $30, individual prints $10.
Q. WHAT SHOULD WE EXPECT?
A. Just a quick and easy portrait of your loved one. It won't take but a few minutes and you'll be on your way. All photos are touched up and wrinkles are optional :)
Q. WHAT SHOULD THEY WEAR?
A. Whatever they're comfortable in. The photo will be a waist up head shot that will hopefully capture the essence of your loved one. If you're like me, you want to remember them the way they are, not all gussied up.
Q. CAN WE BE IN THE PHOTO TOO?
A. Certainly, but I still want the emphasis to be on the grandparent(s). If you want to add anyone else to the photo, it is $5 per person.
FOR MORE QUESTIONS, CALL CHRISSY OR NICK AT 606-784-2626.

HELP-PORTRAIT 12-12-09
There is a movement happening within the photography world. It is called HELP-PORTRAIT and they've inspired me. I will be joining the legions of photographers around the world to give back on 12-12-09. Here is how it works.
1. You find someone needy.
2. You give them a reason to smile by doing a free portrait.
The concept is simple, use your talents, skills, or know how to help others. Give back.
I am looking for people who are in need. It can be anyone. Someone who is down on their luck, someone who has forgotten how beautiful they are, someone sick, someone poor, someone hurt, someone sad, someone with a broken heart, someone starting over, someone unemployed, someone lonely, someone old, someone needy of a smile. If you know someone or a group of people who need a smile...call me immediately. I will come to you if I need to. I'm planning on filling this day as full as possible, so call now to reserve or nominated someone.
