Dominikii Coleman – New Photographer
Photo by Dominikii Coleman
Dear Elaine,
“My name is Dominikii Coleman. I’ve always wanted to give back to the community in a special way, through my photography. Before my father passed away at the age of 83, he was subjected to hospitalization and many nursing homes. The one thing I noticed about these facilities was the lack of color and vibrancy. My father loved gardening and enjoyed the peacefulness of nature. So the photo that I am submitting to you is for him and everyone that can benefit from it. It’s great to see that you all are sharing these beautiful photos to so many individuals in need and I would love to be a part of the journey.”

12 Years of Healing Photo Art
Photo by Elaine Poggi
12 years ago I founded The Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals in honor of my mother who spent the last three months of her life in the hospital trying to recover from Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
It’s been a wonderful experience for me and I do believe our more than 4500 nature photos are helping to create healing environments in almost 300 healthcare facilities on 7 continents!
Thank you so much for all your support and encouragement. I appreciate it as do the thousands of patients, family members, and care givers who are benefiting from our beautiful photos!
