get it on film: making our families visible
nina on Sep 20th 2007
Are you sad or mad every time you see ads, commercials, or general images of “family” and there are no lgbt families in sight? Well, we found an amazing opportunity to visually showcase our families!
Snapfish.com is looking for photos to complete a project called - America at Home project - the largest collaborative photo project ever attempted.
Join some of the best photographers in the world who are taking photos of particular topics relating to the rituals, events and emotions of Home. Each day you will receive an assignment (see web site) and will be invited to join the clicks heard ’round the nation. You will submit your photos of the people, places and things that best describe what Home means to you and perhaps have one selected for inclusion in the America at Home book and exhibition.
Opportunities like these, give us the chance to change hearts and minds by simply seeing us as “normal,” or “equal” to the traditional concept of a mom and dad equaling family. We are just as loving, supportive, silly, fun, boring, etc. as our non-lgbt counterparts. So snap away and help us continue to shift the paradigm and share the love!
