Muskego Photographer Teaming Up with Make-A-Wish Foundation

Carol Schlintz, owner of MindWorks Photography here in Muskego, has teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin to raise funds that allow children with life-threatening illnesses to experience wishes that they name. 

In a recent interview with Muskego Patch, Schlintz said that partnering up with the foundation isn’t very easy.

“I’ve found that the Make-A-Wish Foundation has a very extensive vetting process for partnering up with other organizations and businesses,” Schlintz said, adding, “So I’m grateful I was able to pass their muster.”

From May 12 to June 12, MindWorks Photography is running a program called “Enchanted Wishes”, in which parents can get portraits of their Fairy Princess or Spritely Prince exploring the Enchanted Forest or Fishin' Hole, respectively. A number of prints packages are available for purchase.

Half of the normally $50 sitting fee is being waived by MindWorks as a gift to their clients, while the other $25 is being donated directly to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin, and Schlintz is hoping to raise at least $500 for it.

“In the end, I really see this as kids helping kids and that’s something really great to be part of,” she said.
