Classic Kids Photography, located at 917 W. Armitage, has been a generous supporter of many children oriented causes in the 10 years they have been in business. They have supported a number of Chicago area schools, as well as the Primo Center (women and children's homeless shelter) and St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.

Last fall, as part of the Bauler Park Halloween event, flyers were distributed to all participants highlighting Classic Kids offer to donate 10% of sales from any photo shoot for anyone who mentions Bauler Park. The offer was good from the date of the Bauler Park event to the end of 2010. The result of this generous offer: $1,809 for the park. This donation will fund the purchase of one new piece of playground equipment to be installed this fall. Our sincere thanks go to Julie Floyd, Lisa Johnson and their wonderful staff of talented folks at Classic Kids.

Classic Kids Photography is really quite different in a world suddenly full of photographers. They are one of the very few photographers in the entire country still committed to shooting film and making prints by hand in the dark room. Their prints (including the three photos shown here) are really works of art. They only shoot kids and their families (pets included) in a studio and only in black and white. To really see the wonderful work they do, please visit www.classickidsphotography.com. You will agree that their work is fantastic.
