THe Feel the Love Fest 2011 | Ft. Lauderdale Photographer

A couple of months ago I got a call asking if I would be willing to donate a gift certificate for the Greg Wohrle Foundation‘s “The Feel the Love Fest” fundraising event.  Kim Heller, began telling me about Greg Wohrle and the mission of the Foundation.  Taken from their website “The Greg Wohrle Foundation is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide funding and education for brain tumor research and respite to those most in need.

Our efforts are focused on enhancing the everyday lives of families, affected with brain tumors, through emotional, financial and physical support.”  I dig that!  But as our conversation continued and she told me about the man/father Greg was and just about how awesome “The Feel the Love Fest” event is for families, I knew I wanted to do more, get involved.  Anyone can stick a gift certificate in the mail.  So I went.  Took my camera and took casual portraits of the families and kids really spending quality, wholesome time together.  I was blown away by the scope of the event.  Hundreds of people coming together to celebrate the life of Greg all while  raising funds for such an amazing cause.  I was kicking myself that I didn’t bring my own kids.  It was really a fun family time for everyone.

So that being said, the complete online gallery from the event can be found on pictage.com.  All monies earned from sales of the images will go directly back to the Greg Wohrle Foundaton.
