There's never a dull moment at Sandy Puc' Tours. With several charitable campaigns, educational programs, and other cutting-edge initiatives going on, there's always something new. Check back often to stay up-to-date on these exciting new developments!

About Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep:
Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS), is a 501©(3) non-profit organization committed to assisting parents and families going through the difficult time when they experience an early infant loss. NILMDTS connects families with volunteer photographers and provides them with a reproducible CD of the images of their baby at no cost to the family.

About International Charity Model Search:
The International Charity Model Search (ICMS) was created in 2009 by renowned photographer Sandy Puc'. Photographers across the United States and Canada are able to register for ICMS, and receive a media kit to attract new customers to compete in the model search. Family portraits are then posted online at www.sandypucmodels.com where the public may vote for North America's Cutest Family at a dollar per vote. 2010 first place winners, the Singleton family of Portland, Oregon, received a brand new 2010 Hundai Accent, and were photographed in a live photo shoot for one of Sandy Puc's photography seminars. April Cullett, the first place photographer, received over $2,400 in photography products— donated by the many sponsors that contributed to this year's campaign. Since its inception, ICMS has raised just under $200,000 to benefit NILMDTS.

About Certify with Sandy:
Certify with Sandy Puc' (CWSP) is a FREE educational program that works with the Professional Photographic Certification Commission (PPCC) to help photographers become a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP). Over 4,000 photographers have registered and pledged to become certified--nearly double the current number of certified photographers across the nation.

About Sandy Puc' University:
Created in April of 2009, Sandy Puc' University (SPU) is the ultimate educational experience for photographers looking to super charge their studio and inspire their creativity.

Sandy Puc' University Contest Winner:

Registering for SPU at one of the 2010 Family Tour seminar locations, Haney entered in the drawing to win a private in-studio workshop at Sandy's award-winning studio, Sandy Puc' Portrait Design (a $1,500 value). Second place prizes of a full family marketing kit were awarded to one applicant at each seminar location throughout Sandy Puc's 2010 Family Tour.
