Brittle Views
Great Dames Circle Member: Robert Ford
Description: Every year on February 14th, people celebrate by sending messages of love and affection to partners, family and friends. While few gifts are as touching and heartfelt as a personally-written poem that captures one person’s feelings for another, not everyone feels comfortable in putting pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard.
As someone who has written poetry for 50+ years, and who is passionate about giving the gift of Great Dames membership to Aspiring Dames, I decided to be a little creative in putting together a rather unique Great Dames Circle Member Offering.
Offer: If you join me in sponsoring an Aspiring Dame, by splitting the $95 membership fee with me, I will write an original poem for you, based on your thoughts and ideas. It could be a poem for a partner or a parent, a lover or a friend, a child, a sibling, or even for yourself.
Contact: mail@robertford.us

My first collection of poetry, ‘Love, Life & Loss’, is due to be published in the spring, and will be available both online and in bookstores. Here are some examples of my work:

Flavia Loreto Photography
Great Dames Circle Member: Flavia Loreta
Description: Today, as attention spans grow ever shorter, we all need something that makes us stand out, and be seen by others. Having a great portrait of yourself, a photograph that goes beyond your looks, capturing who you really are, what you love to do, and what makes you tick, can help you get noticed by potential future clients and business partners.
My name is Flavia Loreto, and I’ve been a professional photographer, specializing in portrait photography for more than 15 years. I love to connect with people through my camera and my lenses. I strongly believe that everyone has a story to tell, and that photography is not just about capturing a specific moment in time, but is about capturing all that we are, and how we got here.
I offer photo-sessions for portraits and business headshots in my Wilmington Studio, or on location. You can also book me for Events, Corporate, Weddings and Family photography.
Discount: 20% discount on any photography service

Steel Pony
Great Dames Circle Member: Joanne Litz
Description: Steel Pony has been a sustainable fashion company for over 20 years. We design and create artisan products that are made from eco-friendly materials and sewn locally in our Philadelphia studio. Steel Pony is known for their hand garment dying process, which they credit to their unique tone of voice.
We’ve always been drawn to the idea of creating something with your hands from start to finish, so we started out by making clothing from scraps left over from other projects when we were working as artists in the 1990s. Our clothes have gone through many iterations since then but our commitment to sustainability and local production never wavered.
