What we need

• 2 hours shooting time per month (weekend)
• You will need to bring your own camera
• Venue: professional studio with backdrops and lightings

Background

"Child-parent relationship" or "reverse parenting" is the reciprocal of "parent-child relationship". As our parents age, quality time to spend with them become scarce. We, as grown-up children, believe that taking our parents to participate in various activities adds color to their ageing journey. We believe that no elderly products or services can compare to the love and companionship of their children. In recent years, a lot of people are bringing their kids and lovers to the studio to have professional family photos. Have you ever thought of taking your parents to shoot a set of family photos and portraits in the studio? We are now recruiting volunteer photographers to assist us with shooting memorable photos for adult children and their parents! 「子親關係」— 親子關係的逆向延伸我們知道和父母相處的時間很有限，所以我們帶著他們參加各種的體驗活動，一起探索新事物、建立新興趣、結識新朋友。香港社會正面對人口老化，但即使有更全面的安老服務，都比不上我們對父母的愛和陪伴！一般人到studio影相，可能都會帶小朋友/情人，但有沒有想過其實我們都可以帶父母去，留低倩影? 曬一張靚靚的全家幅在家中，無論一天有多辛勞看到相片都感到值得。

What we have

A network of volunteers will become your friends! The founders of the organizer of this project are in their early 30s, with a group of volunteers ranging from 25 to 60. We are friendly people from all sorts of background.

Why this is important

This will help us promote "Child-parent relationship" (子親關係) and make people be aware of the needs of their elderly parents. They will become our target audience for future health-related promotional work such as Health Talk and fall-preventing dance workshops etc. For more details, please visit https://www.patermater.org/intergenerational
