Last weekend, I volunteered to provide photography coverage of Dogtopia‘s annual charity dog wash. You know I LOVE dogs and of course, photography, so this was a perfect fit! During the 6-hour event, volunteers washed 116 dogs and raised $3,425 for Paws With A Cause! Paws With A Cause is a non-profit organization that trains assistance dogs for people with disabilities.
Check out this cute video coverage of the event by My Fox Carolinas. I even make a small cameo 33 seconds in!
If you didn’t know, Lovely & Light does offer pet photography sessions! Email studio@lovelyandlightphoto.com for more information.
Here is what people had to say about the images from the event:
“These are phenomenal. I can’t thank you enough!” – Owner, Nicole
“Awesome photos! Thanks for being out there today. You captured the personality of the dogs perfectly.” Groomer, Stephanie
Does this little guy look familiar? It’s our Jack! He got all fresh and clean!
This pup was so tiny they had to remove the too-powerful nozzle and keep a firm hand on her slippery body.
This adventurous WBTV reporter sat in one of the tubs and asked to be hosed down on camera!
Yummy dog treats from Barbara’s Canine Cafe in Southend.
There were at least FOUR tv stations that came to interview Dogtopia Charlotte owner, Nicole Odom!
Groomer, Stephanie, de-sheds several dogs, leaving tumbleweeds of fur in the grass.
