Happy New Year.....
Oh okay so it's really late! But hey I'll blame it on the freezing weather! I was frozen and couldn't move....oh ya and the dog ate my homework! HA!

So 2009! wOw and January is already half gone. crazy.

I am pretty excited about 2009, there are some great events happening! Starting in February, I'll be traveling to Victoria Island B.C. for some great weather & to meet some cool west coast dogs. Session spaces are available, so book soon or let your long distance friends know how to get in touch soon.

Spring will be action packed as usual with some great events supporting some awesome groups who work with incredible dogs. Keep posted for the details on how to reserve your session for a two day event of photography at your local Bark & Fitz, "Fur in the family". This will be your chance to get an Urban hip family portrait done of the whole furamily. Details to come to Bark & Fitz Westboro and Kanata soon.

Be sure to look for me at the Annual BARK walkathon in May. For those who support BARK and raise money, this is the day I salute you with a free portrait in the park! As well win a great photo package as one of the "top fundraisers" prizes. Each year I have donated the popular Dog Eared Book package which includes a 2 hour session at your home & local park. In the end you will receive a book that tells the story of the bond between you and your dog. This is a prize valued over $800. BARK was Established in September 2001,The Bytown Association for Rescued Kanines (B.A.R.K.) is an all breed "no kill" rescue organization.They are a registered charity comprised solely of dedicated and experienced volunteers who go to the ends of the earth to help dogs who are found in horrific conditions.

Be sure to keep your eyes posted for the Annual Look A Like contest photo sessions at WAG A huge fundraiser success last year raising over $1000 for the Ottawa Humane Society! Keep posted to their web site and hear for more info on how to sign up. Take a peak at some of the winners from last year.

And this is just the first part of the year! But to start off your year right, you need to head over to the new Bark & Fitz store located in the Kanata Centrum. The new beautiful space is huge and offers great products, fantastic nutritious food for your pet, a grooming salon or should I say S-PAW. It was great to see some of my new work up on the walls including the new Loyal Noble True panel.

Also on display is the metallic print of a greyhound framed in beautiful barn board. Be sure to take a spin out their way, tell them I sent you!
