New Fashion Resource captures DISTRICT of Fashion – Fashiontographer
When the opportunity arises to be photographed by Walter Grio and also help raise money for The Shoot For Change Scholarship at the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School at American Ballet Theatre, you jump at the opportunity. I have been inspired by this amazing creative talent since I first heard of his, Shoot for Change in 2006. With Shoot For Change, you donate all the money directly to a nonprofit organization of your choice for an amount that is negotiated. You get the tax benefit of making a donation to a nonprofit organization. It was such a genius way to volunteer productive time. He was getting to do something he loved and was helping a great cause too. His story is a part of the inspiration which led me to determine a way to give to a cause/organization that was important to me, support the business community all while doing things I love to do. 4 years later, The Hope Initiative is finally getting ready to happen. On December 10, 2011 Shoot for Change hit the $100,000 Milestone!
Walter has launched his new online magazine, Fashiontographer. Fashiontographer is based in Washington, DC and will serve as the premier online magazine and source of fashion runway photographs and news, capturing the latest collections developed by the elite in fashion design from around the world. Walter Grio is the Executive Director with 6 Contributors, Lais Lacher, Lisa Klein, Jennifer Harlow, Anastasia Lambrou, Jennifer Field, Jessica Martinez.
On Wednesday, 2.29.12 Fashiontographer had it’s launch party at the sleek and cool L2 Lounge in Georgetown. $2,600 was raised. At the launch party, guests photos were taken by Walter and then uploaded to the new section on Fashiontographer, District of Fashion. So thrilled to have had the chance to be photographed by an amazing talent like Walter. Photos are being uploaded, so check them all out. Spend some time on Walter Grio’s sites you will be inspired too.
