Celebration of Smiles Day!

April 21st was a wonderful day for so many reasons, I don’t even know where to begin.

I joined Celebration of Smiles Day with the notion that I wanted to give back,

and that is what PPA Charities and Operation Smiles is all about.

PPA Charities  organized Celebration of Smiles Day with photographers from around the nation!

Wendy Waddell Photography spent the day at Venice Canals Duck Park photographing 26 children and saved 3 smiles!

It was a day full of firsts, and the most fulfilling part was doing what I love while helping children in need.

Here are some Sneak Peeks of the Celebration of Smiles Day donators and the smiles they contributed!

Venice Canals Duck Park was the perfect setting for the sessions, countless backdrops and a park for the children.

Balloons, bubbles and a blanket were all at the park keeping the children entertained before and after their session.

An action shot and the awesome Boxwood Cube that was donated by Knibb Designs.

The amazing balloon bouquet was donated by local Balloon Celebrations!

It was the perfect “Thank You” for the children.

Thanks again to local music class, Moo Moo Musica for spreading the word and the wonderful support.

It is difficult to convey the amount of gratitude I have for everyone that participated, and all of those that helped make the day a success.

I am already looking forward to next year’s Celebration of Smiles Day!
