Help for a Pixtus member - 02-14-2012, 11:04 AM


Wasn't sure where to put this, so feel free to move it. Erin's, aka ScoobyRoo (I think) on this forum, mom has stage 4 cancer. She is in Houston right now with her mom and was asking if anyone could donate their time/services to take some portraits of them before she dies. It would be great if you know of a makeup artist that could donate their time, as well. If she was in Dallas, it would be a no brainer for me. Thanks, in advance!

Wow, really sorry to read that. My wife just lost her sis-in-law who had stage 4 cancer.

I hope someone can take them up on it!

Thanks, Keith! Yeah, my second shooter's mom is going through that as well. That's why I'm having to find second shooters lately. Oh, and so sorry to hear about your wife's sister-in-law.

Hey Sonny, no, I don't. I'm gathering contact info for her and will have her contact you guys. Rebecca Davis said she could do it if it was this weekend. I just messaged Erin. Not sure what Erin's schedule is like. If you give me your contact info, that would be awesome.

This is the toughest shoot I ever had to do. I would jump on it also if I were there.

Looks like your well taken care of Leslie, sorry to jump in so late but please let Erin know my thoughts and prayers are with her and her mom.

And congratulations on After Dark!, saw some work by Brian DeMint (amazing guy) then saw your name on the mentor list

Thanks, Stephen and David! Two awesome Pixtus members are helping, Sonny and Rebecca, but I will let her know. All is appreciated!

Lol, yeah, Brian DeMint is pure awesomeness! I hope to sit in on some of his classes. I can't believe they asked me to mentor. I feel so out of my league.

Leslie....anything else us photographers in Houston can do for Erin? I know it's nice to have a basket of snacks when you are at the hospital all the time. Anything else that you know of?
