In late 2009 photographer, Katrina Wheeler, photographed the devestation caused by a flood near her home in Atlanta. But her heart just couldn’t stop with documenting it; she felt driven to do something positive to encourage the victims. So she put her talents as a photographer to work for the cause by doing photo shoots for the flood.
Canvas on Demand was honored to be part of her efforts by donating a canvas to one of the families that Katrina photographed, the Evans Family. The mom wrote us an email:
Dear Canvas on Demand:
My children and I have been forever changed by the experience that was afforded to us following the flood of September 2009. We arrived at Powder Springs First Baptist Church expecting a 15-minute session for a couple of pictures. Instead, we made memories that will last throughout eternity. Our family needed a new start in more ways than one. The floodwaters ravaged our residence, but those same waters also brought cleansing, purging, and divine restoration. You were an intrinsic part of that, and as such, we pray God’s blessings upon you always. Remember that what may seem like an occupation or vocation to you can be a profound life touch to someone else. So, stay the course.

Deidre, I don’t know how to respond to your beautiful note. After all, the goal was for US to encourage YOU…but you simply turned the table on us. Thanks for being such a strong and steadfast role model for so many. Your children are blessed! Mom
