On Friday, Simon Tooley, who is working at the Farha Foundation send us a great positive message, reading ''My partner and I would like to buy a page in the book. Sunday is our one year anniversary - we got married last year. For our wedding last year instead of gifts we asked that people make donations to the Farha Foundation. We thought by buying a page in your book for our one year anniversary which is traditionally celebrated by giving paper, we would be able to celebrate our love for each other by giving to others.'' All of us at the studio here find this to be just truly amazing!
On Sunday, I went to see my girlfriends parents and spoke to them about the project for the first time. I just wanted to share all the positive feedback I got so far, even if the project is still a ''secret''. I was very surprised to see their enthusiasm and again just like that, they reserved a page. They completely loved the idea,.. but I believe they want to encourage me as well ;-) Their donation will go to the CHUM (Centre hospitalier de l'universite de Montreal) if they accept to be part of the project.
Last but definitely not least, we have Bernard Lachance. Bernard Lachance is someone remarkable in many aspects. I was very impressed and touch by his determination to achieve his dreams, as he managed to fill the Chicago Theatre by selling the tickets out on the street. That is just incredible. I myself am a dreamer and always try new way of doing things. I contacted Bernard couple of months ago to offer him to have great images for his website and promotion and as time was flying by, I decided to start my book project. When we spoke again this Monday, I explained my idea to Bernard, and although he was skeptic at first, he turned out to be super happy to get to be a part of this beautiful project.
So we have sold donations for five shoots already, without the project to be even public. Let's hope that it keeps going like that to make a worldwide change with this project.
