We have an exceptional group of talented professionals who volunteer their time and expertise to the program. Year after year they return so that they might help a child find a loving home.

Thanks to the dedication of over 150 photographers, hundreds of foster children have found their forever families! From award-winning photojournalists to sought-after fine art photographers, each brings his or her unique perspective to the Gallery.

Every photo shoot is custom-designed with the child in mind. Whether it's a good day or a bad day for a child in care, our photographers treat each one like a star, hoping to capture that special something every young person possesses.

"I think of each Heart Gallery shoot as a celebrity assignment.  There will be unexpected delays, last minute location changes, set and lighting issues, clothing fiascos and then, of course, the toughest challenge still remains -- capturing a magical moment in the hectic, emotional life of a child living in foster care.  The stakes are high.  Our success isn't measured by artistry alone.  Rather, we carry the weight of uniting a hopeful child with their forever family."
