  1. Thank you for letting us share the joy of the Night to Shine, for these lovely people, through your vision, in these great photos! It is a fantastic event for very deserving Kings and Queens. It is also a wonderful opportunity for those in the community and in the church to volunteer their time to make so many happy.
