Cameron with pneumonia

Our 9 month old Cameron was admitted to the hospital yesterday with a mild case of pneumonia. He and mommy will be there until tomorrow, we hope no longer then that.

Cameron is a trooper. The last photo is him this morning, in better spirits.




Enjoying time with abuela.

WPPI Thirst Relief Benefit Auction, Starts Tomorrow!

Hello Everyone,

I am excited to be a part of Thirst Relief International Mentoring Session Auction.

At this years WPPI, March 16-19th, many great photography educators will be volunteering our time to offer one 90 minute Mentoring Session each. You don't have to be present at WPPI to take advantage of the mentoring session.

Mentoring sessions will go up for bid starting Saturday, February 9th, at 10 EST, on an auction at
http://www.fotoverite.com/joomla/index.php . The site will have a Thirst
Relief banner that people can click on that will take them directly to the
auction site.

The auction site will have my mentoring session posted with details about my session and a link to the auction. Bidders will need to register in order to place a bid on mine and others mentoring sessions.

The auction that we're setting up has an end time.
However, when the auction time is supposed to close, if there is a bidding
war happening over my mentoring session then the auction will stay open
until the bidding war ends. This is very important feature of the auction so keep the bids coming!

The auction will take place for three days from February 9-February 12th. All times on the auction are based on Eastern Standard Time.
Auctions will end on the 12th (unless my mentoring session is having a
bidding war.in which case my auction will end when people stop bidding).
Once the auction closes, you, the bidder who won my mentoring session will need
to go to www.thirstrelief.org and make a
donation for the amount in which you won my session. When you are making
your donation you will need to enter my name, Carlos Baez, in the "on behalf of" space so that it shows up as a contribution made for the WPPI Thirst Relief
Benefit.

Whatever you would like to talk about we can, so bid with your heart and wallet, it's all for a great cause. And don't forget, you can bid on any of the photographers that you like, not just me.
