Having been a Portrait Photographer for 20+ years, I am always looking for new challenges.
In 2014 I decided to start a Book project with a goal to raise funds for charity.
Our initial thought was to photograph 100 Pets, I'm not sure of the exact number of pets in the end, however we photographed 114 sessions which involved in many cases, multiple people and multiple pets....we over-shot our goal, probably several hundred pets and the result is a stunning book, full of gorgeous photos and heartfelt stories written by the owners.
We proudly presented New Beginnings Animal rescue and Guide Dogs VIC with $8,000 at our Book launch on Sunday 12th April 2015.
Book 2 "PAWtraits of Pets and their People", was completed in July 2016 and another $8,000 was donated to Assistance Dogs Australia and New Beginnings Animal Rescue.
Book 3 is currently underway!
it is true........
Pets do leave Pawprints on your heart.
