FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: LOCAL PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO HELPS VICTIMS AND FIREFIGHTERS MAKE NEW MEMORIES
Andrae Michaels Portrait Studio, located at 621 W. Colorado
Avenue, wants to give back to those who have lost so much in this year’s Black
Forest Fire by giving away free photo sessions and print packages. Their giving doesn’t just stop with the
victims, but also extends to those who risked their lives to protect the
city.
The Black Forest Fire destroyed over five hundred homes this
past June, taking with it the lifelong memories of thousands of people. With so little time to evacuate, many people
had to leave behind photos and portraits of the ones they love to the mercy of
the fire.
Saddened by the fact that so many memories were lost, Kim
Broadfoot, Manager of Andrae Michaels in Colorado Springs, wants to help people
regain their precious memories. Or, if
not regain them, at least give them the chance to make new ones.
“You always hear
that the first thing people save from their homes in times of a fire are their
photos. Those that were lost cannot be replaced. That's why we want to do our
part by helping those families get new portraits. It’s the least we can do to
try to help those rebuild all that they've lost,” says Kim Broadfoot. So her studio is offering a free
portrait session to anyone affected by the wildfire or anyone who had fought
the fire.
This package includes a free indoor portrait session in
their Colorado Springs studio as well as the following free prints:
- One 10x13
- Two 5x7s
- Sixteen mini-wallets
Kim loves this community wants to do everything possible to
help out those in need. As this is a
busy and trying time for those affected by the fire, she is offering this
special package through the end of the year.
Appointments are necessary, but Andrae Michaels will be accepting them
through January 1, 2014.
As a way of expressing their gratitude to those who have
risked so much to save the Black Forest community, Kim wants to extend this
generous offer out to any of the firefighters who spent so much time away from
their family fighting to save others.

rebuilding memories, please contact Kim Broadfoot at (719) 434-6534. Andrae Michaels Portrait Studio is proud to
be a member of this community and excited about the opportunity to give back in
any way that they can.
