Spotlight on a photographer
In May we had a wonderful Spring Fling Photo Fundraiser! Here's a spotlight on one of the photographers that participated in it. You can see more samples of the pictures he took on our Facebook page.
Jeremy Rusnock is a Washington, DC Metro Area photographer who specializes in family and corporate portraiture as well as event photography.
“Of all the qualities a portrait photographer possesses, my love of people is probably the most important. The light, my camera, and photographic knowledge are
all crucial. But a strong connection with my subject turns a good photo into a great photo!” I wrote that statement many years ago but it remains true today. It
was especially true a few months ago as I photographed with the NorthMetroDCMommies Network for their Photo Fundraiser. I met a LOT of great families that weekend and we made some AMAZING images. I especially love it when a baby looks directly through the lens and the old cliché rings true: the eyes are the window to the soul!

Time's running out!
We need your help! Did you know that it costs over $500 a year to keep NorthMetroDCMommies running? We provide a free service and free events to our members. We ask just this one time a year for a donation to help keep us going. Even $1 can make a difference. Not a mom or in our area? You can still help! Think of your own mom (everyone has one!), sister, wife, etc. I bet that if you asked them if they felt they needed support as a mom you'd get a resounding "YES!". You have a way to help ALL moms out and help them get the support, friendship and advice they need. All you have to do is click on that lovely banner at the top. See it? The one that says "May is for Mothers"? Yup- just give it a click and donate! But time's running out, the fundraiser ends May 31st. Don't procrastinate- it takes mere seconds to do and it's safe and secure!
Your mother thanks you!
Your mother thanks you!

May is for Mothers
Belonging. Worth. Friendship. Support.
These are the words echoed by fellow mommies when asked what our chapter and The Mommies Network means to them and we hope that you have felt the same embrace on our forums and through our events.
"My chapter has given me friendships that I have always longed for. The ones where you can genuinely count on someone to be there for you in the good and the bad."
Have you had a similar experience? Did you find your best friend on our forums? Do you rush to post when something exciting happens to you or your child? Do you turn to "the mommies" first because they've been there and done that and they always provide you with friendly advice and a shoulder to lean on? If so, please join us this May for May is for Mothers as we celebrate motherhood and the role that your chapter and The Mommies Network plays in making our walk through motherhood easier and more meaningful. Your contribution helps ensure that we can continue to provide support, free of charge, to moms in our community and allows us to grow so that one day moms everywhere will have a chapter where they can find friends, support, and encouragement.
While our forums are free, it costs our chapter approximately $10 per year per member to operate. Can you spare $10 this month? Perhaps $20 to sponsor another mother who needs support and encouragement? Donating is safe and secure! Even if you're only able to give one dollar, that is still one dollar that will help us support moms.
As a non-profit organization, we rely on the support of our members to enable us to continue providing our services free of charge. If you are able, please, help support our chapter this May! Please, click HERE donate now to support our chapter and May is for Mothers.
Thank you!
