Support Photography School Campaign by Haywood GoldenEagle Galbreath


  • A new school year starts in a few weeks. I would appreciate if you would share this with your friends and help us make a positive change in some young people’s lives.

    you,
    MPJI

The mentor of the students is the famous presidential photographer Haywood Galbreath, and after viewing the children’s artwork it’s easy to see they have a great mentor. Unfortunately my camera was taken without my knowledge, and I felt naked visiting the event with no camera but my Droid cell phone, which takes rather poor quality photos.
