CFC - Combined Federal Campaign

I feel pretty good about an action I did today. A representative for an organization called CFC (Combined Federal Campain) spoke to me about donating to charities. Normally, over the past years, I have blown this off. Well, this time, I decided to donate to specific causes. I took the brochure and read through the several organizations and decided to put my money towards organizations. Below is a list of organizations I have setup a monthly deduction from my payroll to help support them.

Client Testimonies


"I've worked with Sal on more than one occasion, and he has always been very professional and polite. He made the shoot fun and made me feel very comfortable working with him. Sal addressed all of my concerns as a model and took into consideration everything I suggested, my ideas, and my critiques. He's very easy to work with and I love all of the images he produced of me. Two thumbs up ;)"

"I met Sal Hernandez on MySpace through a friend. After seeing how good his work was, I set up an appointment to take some pictures with my boyfriend. When I arrived to his studio, I met his wife Vero and she was hella cool and I really clicked with her. I felt really comfortable at his studio and the session went well. Not only is Lasher Photography great, the hair and make up his wife does is excellent. I recommend him to anyone that needs professional pictures."
