NOH8 Campaign photoshoot in Denver
The NOH8 Campaign is a photo project and silent protest created by celebrity photographer Adam Bouska and partner Jeff Parshley in response to the passage of the anti-gay marriage Proposition 8.
On January 31, a NOH8-themed photo shoot fundraiser for the Matthew Shepard Foundation is planned to take place at Charlie's. Norman Dillon will be the photographer.
Wear a white T-shirt, tank-top, or go shirtless, the aim is to the images to mimic what Adam has already started. NOH8 face-paint will be provided.
Cost is $30 per person or $25 for each person in a group. Participants must be 18 years or older.
This is not an official NOH8 photo shoot, but the images will be sent to the campaign to be used at their discretion.

Cindy and Meghan say 'yes' but John still says 'no'
Cindy and Meghan McCain, the wife and daughter of 2008 Republican presidential nominee Senator John McCain, have lent their faces and efforts to the NOH8 campaign, which was formed to protest passage of Proposition 8, California’s discriminatory anti-marriage law.
“Cindy and Meghan McCain’s outspoken, public support of full marriage equality for loving and committed same-sex couples further underscores that equality is not a liberal issue or a conservative issue,” said Joe Solmonese, President of the Human Rights Campaign. “We are deeply grateful to Mrs. McCain for proactively reaching out and offering her support of our community’s equality. In households throughout the country, families are talking about equality and minds are changing. The McCains are a prominent example, but they are not alone. Little by little, family member by family member, there is no doubt that our country is headed in the direction of full equality for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, and Cindy and Meghan McCain’s courageous decision to publicly stand up will certainly be a beacon for others to follow.”
Unfortunately, Senator John McCain (R-AZ) quickly released an official statement from his Senate office reiterating his anti-marriage equality position and touting his past support for discriminatory measures. The statement reads, “Senator McCain respects the views of members of his family. The Senator chaired the effort to successfully pass Arizona Proposition 102, the Marriage Protection Amendment, and his opposition to gay marriage remains the same. Senator McCain believes the sanctity of marriage is only defined as between one man and one woman.”
