“Keeping our tiny lights shine, even after they are gone”
Image captured by Melissa DePape Photography
The Tiny Light Foundation™ is a charity that provides professional photography for children and families that have children who are currently in palliative care.
We provide families with the lasting memories through the art of photography. With the help of photographers and palliative care staff and volunteers throughout in Alberta and British Columbia, we are able to provide families with photos that they can cherish.
Our mission is to provide and capture memories that will help provide a family with one less thing to worry about. In the mist of dealing with doctor appointments, specialist appointments or just the daily routine of medicines, rushing here to there for weights, checkups, and the many other things we deal with in everyday life. A lot of the times, capturing memories gets forgotten. When we look back, we want to remember, and even though you may never forget what you and your child have gone through, we always want more; we need the memories to last forever.
We, at The Tiny Light Foundation™, feel that helping families create these memories is very important. Each of us has somehow been touched by a family member or friend who has had to endure a life-threatening experience, and looking back, we know the importance of these special moments. So, whether you have a child or know a child who would benefit from a professional photo session, please know that we are here to help. Each session is specially designed and caters to your child and your family. Each session is free of charge, and you are provided with a high resolution disk or online gallery of edited photos, ready for printing. Our photographers are willing to travel to your home, hospital or your home away from home.
