Vero Beach, Fla.-Local families have the unique opportunity to have professional portraits created at McKee Botanical Garden in Vero Beach during the Family Photo Day fundraiser on Saturday, October 10.

Your family or children's portrait will be created by Diane Dultmeier of Dultmeier Photography in Stuart. She is well known for her style of relaxed portraiture done in Florida's beautiful outdoors. The photographer has raised more than $13,000 for McKee Garden since starting Family Photo Days there in 2006.

The session fee is $150, with $100 of that donated directly to the garden. You also receive one 8x10 print of your favorite image and a slide show presentation of your images in Dultmeier's gallery in Stuart. The Saturday portrait session and 8x10 are valued at $365.

"We had several choices of settings for our pictures but chose McKee Gardens," says Vero Beach resident Martha Terry."WOW did we luckout!!! The setting and Diane doing the photographing...one could not ask for a better combination."

Prior to Family Photo Day, you are invited to make an appointment for a consultation at Dultmeier's Stuart gallery. At this time, you will meet with Diane to discuss clothing, see a selection of photography products, and get ideas that will guarantee a successful portrait.
