WATCH A FILM ABOUT OUR MISSION

Imperfect JOY® is currently in production.
Our vision is to create multiple film series with a companion podcast, Instagram, and blog. Each series will focus on 5-10 families from a given category (e.g. pediatric critical illness, veterans, trauma survivors).

We will share stories that depict how the pain of difficult circumstances can coexist with the beauty of embracing joy in everyday, ordinary moments.

We are creating a network of family photographers and filmmakers to support a wide availability of sessions for these families. Since this is our first year operating as a fiscally sponsored project, sessions are currently limited to select days and locations until we are able to expand over the coming years.
