Project 100: The "Give a Little, Get a Lot" Photography Initiative

Every family deserves to have beautiful, timeless portraits hanging on their walls. But sometimes, life gets in the way. That’s why we created Project 100.

The concept is simple: for every family that invests in a portrait session of $500 or more, we gift a completely free session to another family in our community. It’s a one-for-one model of kindness, powered by you. It’s like a buy-one-get-one-free deal, but you're giving the "free one" to someone who could truly use a reason to smile.

You get stunning photos, they get stunning photos, and we all get the warm fuzzies. It's a win-win-win!

How It Works:

You Book Your Dream Session: You invest in a family portrait package ($500+) to capture your own beautiful memories.

You Unlock a Gift: Your booking automatically unlocks a complimentary portrait session for a local Houston-area family.

We All Share the Joy: We find a deserving family (often through nominations!) and capture their story, spreading the good vibes all around.

Ready for the details? Let's break it down for everyone involved.

For Our Amazing Clients (The Givers!)

So, you're ready to book a session and become a neighborhood hero? Excellent choice. Here’s what it means for you:

Your Session, Your Way: You receive your full, fabulous portrait experience with Miranda Bassagi Photography. We'll capture the laughs, the cuddles, and all the perfectly imperfect moments.

The Gift of Giving: You automatically fund a "Gift Session" for another family. You don't have to do anything extra—your booking is the magic wand. This comes at no additional cost to you.

We Handle the Logistics: We take care of finding, vetting, and scheduling the recipient family, so you can just bask in the glow of your good deed.

Share the Magic: A huge part of this project is its story. By participating, you agree that we can share some of the beautiful images and behind-the-scenes moments from your session to show the world the "giving" side of Project 100.

Your Photos, Your Memories: You receive a license for personal use of your photos. This means you can print them, share them online with friends and family, and create beautiful albums. The only no-no is using them for commercial purposes or resale. (Miranda Bassagi Photography retains the official copyright, as is standard for creative work).

For Our Honored Recipient Families (The Gifted!)

We are so excited to offer you this gift! We believe in the power of photography to uplift and celebrate, and we're thrilled to share that with you.

Your complimentary Gift Session includes:

A fun and relaxed 45-minute portrait session at a lovely Houston-area location.

A private online gallery to view your images.

Your choice of 5 beautifully edited, high-resolution digital images to keep forever.

The option to purchase additional digital images, prints, or albums at our standard rates (but absolutely no pressure!).

By accepting this session, you agree to a few things:

A Gift from the Heart: This session is a gift and has no cash value. It cannot be sold, traded, or transferred to someone else.

Let's Get You on the Calendar! The session must be booked within 60 days of being notified. To ensure we can help as many families as possible, any sessions canceled with less than 48 hours' notice or no-shows will be forfeited.

Sharing Your Story: Project 100 thrives on inspiration! We ask that you be willing to let us share some of your beautiful photos and behind-the-scenes moments. We also ask that you record a short and sweet video testimonial (even a quick selfie video on your phone works!) about your experience. This helps us show the impact of the project and encourage others to participate!

Personal Use, Just for You: You can print, post, and share your 8 included images to your heart's content! Commercial use or resale is not permitted, and the copyright remains with Miranda Bassagi Photography.

The Nitty-Gritty (The Fine Print, Made Fun)

Here are the general rules that apply to everyone participating in Project 100.

Location, Location, Location!

All sessions take place within a 30-mile radius of downtown Houston, TX. We have a list of gorgeous spots we can recommend!

Have Camera, Will Travel (for a Fee!)

Have a special spot in mind that's a bit of a drive? We love an adventure! For locations beyond our 30-mile happy zone, a travel fee of $2.00 per mile (one-way) is added.

Example: If your location is 45 miles away, that's 15 extra miles. The travel fee would be 15 miles x $2.00 = $30.

Weather Woes

This is Houston, after all! If crazy humidity, torrential rain, or other wild weather decides to crash our party, we will happily reschedule your session for the next available date at no cost. Your safety and comfort (and not having frizzy hair!) are top priorities.

How Are Families Chosen?

We accept nominations from the community for recipient families! You can nominate a friend, a neighbor, or even yourself. We review nominations based on need, story, and our availability to ensure the gifts go where they're needed most.
