Hope.Dream.Love Photo Workshop

My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. When I got the call, I was devastated. I was scared, sad, and full of emotion. I was in a foreign country when I got the call, which made it that much harder. I wanted to be close to her so bad. I needed to give her a hug and tell her everything will be okay.
Fast forward almost a year and she is done with chemo and the cancer looks like it is all gone. Thank GOD.
As I was sitting with my mom during a chemo treatment, I was reading a message that a good friend of mine sent me encouraging my mother and I to stay strong. She lost he mother to cancer and it was heartbreaking. I can't even imagine. She sent my mother and I shirts made in honor of her mother that said "Don't wait too long".
I sat down and wrote in my journal and made a list of the things I wanted to do with my mom. Things I didn't want to wait too long to do...
Paris. This has always been a dream of my moms. Taking me to Paris and having the mother-daughter adventure of a lifetime.
I decided I would make it happen. I asked around, and my friends & fellow photographers blew me away with their support. We would celebrate her chemo completion, wait for her body to get better, then surprise her with this gift!
I decided to use my gifts and the gifts of others to teach a photography workshop to raise the money for us to make this trip happen.
