Help-Portrait is a global campaign for photographers to spend a day giving their time and expertise to people in need. “Founded by celebrity photographer Jeremy Cowart, Help-Portrait is a community of photographers, coming together across the world, to use their photography skills to give back to their local community.”
There were multiple locations for the event in Atlanta, which took place on Sunday, 12/12. Here’s a behind-the-scenes video.
