Emerald Square Mall and CLB Photography to Host Operation Smile

Emerald Square Mall in partnership with CLB Photography is hosting a special event for Operation Smile on Saturday, April 21st in the Sears Court (Level 1). For a $24 donation each person will receive a mini-portrait session with one of five local photographers:

• Charlotte Bowles (www.clbphotography.com

• Teresa Sweet (www.teresasweetphotography.com
• Deb Bettencourt (www.debbettencourtphotography.com
• Melissa Danielli (www.melissadanielliphotography.com

Each mini-portrait session participant will go home with a 5x7 print and digital image. Select the “theme” of the portrait: fun & silly (props on hand), a professional headshot for a portfolio, a nice family photo, or even a Facebook profile picture. There will also be face painting available for before of after your shoot.

Also on hand, Anthony Parziale aka “Spaz” from WAAF will be signing autographs from 10am – 2pm and Larry Johnson from WEEI Sports Radio will be signing autographs from 2pm – 4pm. 

100% of the proceeds benefit Operation Smile, an international medical charity that provides free-life changing surgery for children and young adults suffering from facial deformities such as cleft lip and cleft palate. For every 10 donations received, Operation Smile can change a child’s life forever by giving the gift of surgery.
