This is the third year that I led this inspiring movement in my country (Colombia), in this case we did 81 portraits for children in need form an institution called “Hogares Club Michín” in Bogotá, in the event participated six photographers (Germán Ruiz, Cristian Rojas, Alexander Gomez, Miguel Angel Monroy, Lisandro Pérez and Luis G. Gomez), five volunteers (Diana Torres, Luis Calixto, Luis Gómez, Leonardo Jimenez, and Enrique Peña), one videographer (Ricardo Rodriguez) and three makeup / hairstyling artists (Jeinmy Fontecha, Camila Gomez and Carine Garcia).

Some of these children told us that they wanted to give the picture to their moms because probably will not see them again in a long time.

At the end of the event the smiles of grateful children was the best gift we can receive :)
