Leave a comment

We are so excited to partner up with Warren Village, Studio Salon and Dave Sands for the December 6th Help-Portrait! Help-Portrait is a global movement of photographers, hairstylists, and makeup artists using their time, tools, and expertise to give back to those in need.

We have selected Warren Village to be the organization that we work with and with our neighbors a half block away at Studio Salon, what a perfect opportunity to put to use the talent that is right on our own block of Bannock Street!

Warren Village exists so low income, single parent families can achieve
sustainable personal & economic self-sufficiency.

“As a salon owner I understand the importance of beauty and as a woman I understand the need to feel beautiful.  For my staff and I, the greatest gift we can give this holiday season is the gift of beauty.  If we can ignite a spark within these women, boosting their confidence and self esteem, than we are giving the greatest gift we possibly can,” says Andrea Tucker owner of Studio Salon.

Dave Sands“Giving someone a reason to smile is a wonderful gift!”, says Dave Sands, Denver photographer.

However, the hustle and bustle of the city did not allow them the time to nurture a budding friendship. It wasn’t until years later that their friendship truly began here in the mile high city.
