100 Kiddo March
Ha! Kidding. I knew it would get your attention! It worked because here you are… 
When this project was first created, we knew we had to set some kind of parameters for it regarding how many kiddos we would photograph. That magical number is 100. One of the other goals we had was to travel to do the shoots, which we have done.
So far, we are a little over a quarter way done. Outside of our home studio, we have done photo sessions in our home state of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Boston, Utah and Florida. That reach alone is very exciting!! However, there is obviously more work to be done. We have sessions upcoming in Baltimore, next month. Past that, we are looking at NJ some more, Colorado (duh!), Portland and Cincinnati. No dates have been set for those states. Perhaps we may try to get into the south some more or midwest more.
What happens when we reach 100 kiddos? Well, nothing really. We stop shooting for this project. We will continue to advocate and look to exhibit these images. The site will remain in tact. I will continue to blog some. Based on just the kiddos’ stories, you may have like 100 weeks of blogs yet. However, there are other ideas we have, plus our career and family, all that need time and attention, so we will have to wrap this up when we hit 100. Hopefully, during this time and beyond, we will continue to affect people who do not know about SPD and help offer encouragement and support to those just starting on the journey.
I wish to thank you all for your support and encouragement!

100 weeks of blog posts would be well worth it to see those little faces and read their unique stories! I hope to see this on the west coast some time! My son would make a great subject for you! Happy and safe travels!

We could always meet you in PDX, we are in Seattle and would love to be part of your project. We have a wildly adorable 4 year old son.

What is PDX?

PDX is an abbreviation for Portland.
And I’m super stoked about your project and would love to help you get here!

Sorry, PDX = Portland. We would love to be a part of your project. We still find that so many people including educators need more information about SPD and I love this idea to get it out there. I’d love to pass along our contact information once you have a date, etc.
Thanks!

perhaps this summer. I am both excited and surprised at how big and collective the SPD community is there in the Portland area. Kudos!

This idea is amazing! I have a 22 month old daughter who was recently diagnosed with SPD. If you decide to visit the midwest, Iowa is a beautiful state….best of luck to you!
