Wanted: Dads!
I am looking for Dads who are willing to be photographed for a gorgeous book: LOVE and dads.
The book is about love, and raising funds for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ. The whole session fee ($65) goes to the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, who's vision is zero deaths from breast cancer in New Zealand.
Who can take part?
Dads with their child / children who are willing to donate the $65. The children can be adults...they can be mums or dads themselves!
What does the dad get?
A fun portrait session with Juliette Capaldi of Etta Images.
A place in the book, LOVE and dads.
The satisfaction of helping NZ to move towards zero deaths from breast cancer.
What else do I need to know?
The sessions are fun and don't take long.
Sessions take place in Christchurch (Central, South and East).
Prints for yourself are optional, at my usual print prices.
The children of the dad can be adults also.
We can photograph extra people at the session too if you would like.
The goal is 100 dads, to raise $6500. Already 49 dads have signed up. Now I just need another 51!
Please let me know if you have any questions at all.
Thanks, Juliette

Gang presence this weekend
International members of the Mongols MC are expected in Canterbury for an event marking five years since the gang established itself in New Zealand.
What you need to know:
-The gang has three chapters in the South Island. Wainoni-based Ōtautahi East, Ashburton-based Mid-South and SH1, Burnham.
- Police say they will have ‘considerable resource’ in the region during the event from November 7-10.
- Police in Canterbury have planned a major operation around the event - thought to coincide with a national meeting - from November 7 to 10, and have drafted in staff from two other districts to help.
- Mongols members from across the country are expected to meet at the gang’s original South Island headquarters - a fortified property on SH1, Burnham, on the outskirts of Christchurch.
- Canterbury district commander Superintendent Tony Hill says:
“We’re prepared for multiple contingencies. We will be monitoring their behaviour very closely over the period, if they’re not behaving appropriately then we will be taking appropriate action quite swiftly.”
