YMCA & LAPID Photography

With the help of LAPID Photography, YMCA put on a photo/story show last night at their Decatur gym. I had the pleasure of assisting Michelle Lapid with this shoot. She was hired to photograph ten or so people who's life stories crossed paths with the Y. For example, one lady had a child with autism and through that felt led to reach out to children which she does through the Y. Another woman, who now works as the fitness director, told the story of how she use to board her horse at a barn on this land before the Y was built. She continues by describing how angry she was when the farm owner sold his property and the Y popped up. Ironicly, thirty years later, she "would trade all the horses in the world" for the friends she's made through the Y. Michelle Lapid is a phenomenal photographer with a talent unmatched. I was there the day she took those photos. I know how challenging some of those people were and I'll be the first to tell you, her talent blows my mind. GREAT JOB, Michelle!!
