Ever had your true spirit captured in a photograph? Not that fake smile we do when we say "cheese" but the real deal grin that sparkles from within? Anna Carson Dewitt Photography specializes in real life portraiture that takes precious moments and commits them to film. Anna says "When I take your picture, I witness the things that make you interesting, tender, strong, and loving, and reflect that beauty back to you in photos that you’ll keep forever. The most important audience for my photos? Your children, fifty years from now."
Anna is truly talented - I say this from personal experience with her cool, calm and collected manner in a photo shoot during a tornado watch! You see, we had planned to get some shots of my kiddos but little did we know how the weather would turn on us. Time was not on our side and I wasn't sure how it was possible for her to get anything with the wind whipping around but when the results came in I was amazed. Despite the blustery day, she wrangled my two kids into some amazing shots where she really captured their spirits, from cuddly and sweet to silly and sassy. You can see two of my favorites from that day on the left!

Anna uses her skills behind the camera to really make a difference. Earlier this year she had portrait sessions to benefit paying the school lunch debt in Durham down. This weekend she does something equally as special and giving. She's holding Durham Tiny Sessions to support the Texas Civil Rights Project 's efforts to reunite immigrant families. You can get amazing one-of-a-kind shots of your family while helping other families in need - what better reason do you need to have portraits done?
The fundraiser takes place this Sunday August 5th, from 4p-7p in downtown Durham. Anna believes deeply in this cause. As she explains, "As of today, as many as 700 immigrant families remain separated by the US government, despite the July 10th deadline. It's going to take a massive mobilization of skilled professionals and resources to get these children back to their parents-- let's raise some money for the lawyers and advocates who are working around the clock to make it happen. I know you all have been hugging you children extra tight lately-- come hug them in front of my camera! I came to know of the Texas Civil Rights Project when I was in Rio Grande Valley a few weeks ago, and they are tireless, profoundly compassionate professionals with deep roots in the Texas struggle for immigrant rights. You can explore their work, listen to their briefings, and check out their financials here: https://texascivilrightsproject.org"
The Tiny Sessions are super-short, super fun photo sessions for kids, families, or headshots. They last five minutes (really!) and cost $75 for the session your choice of three high-res digital images, with the option to buy more. Yes! Five minutes! It can be done! I can attest to how quickly Anna can get special shots. Signup here and do it soon before she's booked up for this great cause!
