Share Six’s theme for September is gold in honor of The Gold Hope Project. Here is a little info about them…..
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month, so for all of September we’ve decided to team up and join forces with @thegoldhopeproject to help spread awareness!!
For those of you that don’t know, The Gold Hope Project is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization of photographers who aim to provide free portrait sessions to families battling pediatric cancer. As photographers, we understand how truly important it is to document our children’s lives, and what better gift to give to parents going through such a tremendously difficult time! In addition to pairing young warriors with photographers, @TheGoldHopeProject also works to raise funds for pediatric cancer research! If you want to participate with us this month, here are just a few things you can consider:
1. Tag your gold photos with the #TeamUp4GoldKids (for features) and #theGoldHopeProject (to spread awareness). You will have a chance to be featured on one of the MANY participating hubs for the month of September!
2. Go to goldhopeproject.com and see how you can apply to be a registered photographer!
3. Donate! It DOES make a difference!

We decided to switch gears for September’s theme on the 22nd of August and support this wonderful cause. I was getting ready to head off on vacation which threw a bit of a wrench in getting some photos. I was really hoping to donate a session to a child with cancer and post those photos for the theme. Unfortunately I just didn’t have time to make that happen.
I ended up using some photos I took earlier this summer. A local farmer planted 8 acres of Black-eyed Susans. It was an absolutely stunning sight! They were very generous and let people come take photos in the field. I had thought it would be fun to get a few fun shots of my girl in the field. When we pulled up to the field there was a thunderstorm rolling through. It was a small one though. It actually made for some stunning skies. Here are a few images I took that evening.
Thanks so much for stopping by!! I hope you enjoyed my images. Continue through the blog circle and head on over to Janet’s blog to see her lovely interpretation.
So much happy gold! Your daughter radiates joy and the final image is so gorgeous – that bokeh! <3
So very beautiful- what a stunning sight to see!
I love these! What a cool thing for a local farmer to do! Wish we had more flower fields around us! Beautiful images!
Katherine I love the tones of these images and I love seeing your daughter in these photos. I love them all but I do think that the final image is my favorite. Just beautiful.
