Carlton SooHoo, travel & commercial photographer

I'm always thinking about how I can give back to the community in some way using my talent in photography. I was inspired to make the following offer of almost free photography for children 5 and under and I added this to my website also. In support of the efforts of Amber Alert and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children , I now photograph children 5 and under for a small administrative fee of $25. This is so that in the slim chance a child becomes missing, the authorities will have a high quality photo to alert with.

I had a great photo shoot with Kalinah who is a first-time model. She's very natural and had no problem with posing. Here is a small collage of the images.

Peabody Glen Health Care Center Valentine Party 2008 Originally uploaded by carltonsoohoo The Peabody Glen Health Care Center sponsored a Valentine's Party at the Peter A. Torigian Community Life Center . Heather and I had a great time photographing the event. There was so much energy in the room and the DJ was super-duper at getting everyone to dance and wave napkins around.
