I carry a little photo album in my purse every where. I show my SS class. Teachers at school, friends, etc. Word will travel.

I actually started with a church member who was renewing her vows. From then on it just blossomed.

I did my first for a church couple that didn't have much money...boy, I lost big time money wise but it gave me the experience.
