EVERY FAMILY HAS THAT AWESOME PHOTO!

In light of our photo contest that is going on right now, I have been scouring one of my favorite time-wasting websites for some great inspiration to all you budding (and professional!) photographers out there. This one's a classic but you can see more on our Facebook page.

You can enter your photo(s) for a chance to win prizes and have your photo seen by thousands on display at the Greater Rochester International Airport for one month. The other great part? Proceeds go to Children Awaiting Parents, a national non-profit that helps kids in foster care who have waited the longest for their forever families.
