Front Steps Project - Oakville ON
DUE TO INCREASED "STAY HOME" MESSAGES FROM OUR GOVERNMENT, FRONT STEPS PHOTO SESSIONS HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED. THE FOOD BANK STILL NEEDS OUR SUPPORT, PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING ANYWAY, AND I'LL PHOTOGRAPH YOU AFTER RESTRICTIONS ARE LIFTED.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

I am taking five minute “Front Steps Portraits” of Oakville residents. After your quick session, I will email you the digital file of your portrait. In exchange, I am asking you to make a good faith donation to Oakville Fare Share Foodbank . (The originator of this project, Cara Soulia in Boston) has raised $15,000 for her charity in just 6 days!)
I will be posting these images on Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag #TheFrontStepsProject and #thefrontstepsprojectoakville
The purpose of this project is to bring us together when we might feel isolated. I aim to highlight the faces of our community during a time when we might not see them in passing at the grocery store, coffee shop, on the train or at the gym. Participating in this project is also an opportunity to step up to help those who need it most right now in Oakville.
I will be taking images outside ONLY and from at least 10 feet away. Our session will be brief, likely just 5 minutes. This is not a typical get-dressed-up-and-pose-for-the-photographer session. Want to stand outside in your pyjamas and slippers?
Sounds good to me. Kids in mismatched clothes but you’re thrilled they got dressed? Fantastic. Wearing your bike gear because you’re headed off to ride a trail in the nice weather? Love it! Be you.
To participate in the project, make a donation here to the Foodbank and register by clicking through to the sign up form It is important to fill out a sign up form - otherwise I don’t have the necessary info to get you booked for your photo.
Who am I?
I'm a professional photographer here in Oakville, who normally helps families celebrate the more joyous times of their lives through relaxed photos. Since I can't conduct my normal family photo sessions, I thought this was the next best thing.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
