My own beloved Australian Shepherd, Iris, would never have found her way to me if it weren't for the wonderful folks at the shelter were I adopted her. I will always be grateful that she came into my life! She is my living proof of just how wonderful rescue dogs are.
Whenever possible, I try to volunteer my time by photographing rescue fundraising events and pets available for adoption. I also reserve a certain number of gift certificates each year to donate to rescue fundraisers, auctions, and raffles.
I have a huge respect for the tireless efforts of the many local shelters and rescue groups who are doing everything possible to find loving homes for the pets in their care. If your rescue group is looking for volunteer photography services, please feel free to contact me to discuss your needs. I always love hearing from local shelters and rescue organizations!
I'm also a proud member of HeARTs Speak, an international database of photographers and artists dedicated to helping rescues and shelters find homes for all of the wonderful animals in their care.
