This was one of my first shoots on the project Rescue Tales. It is inspired by Little Red Riding Hood and white wolf. In the fairytale, the wolf always wants to attack Red Riding Hood. In this story, I wanted to show that they could be friends. Red holds a loose leash, which symbolizes trust between the two. Red is not leading the wolf, but they are going on an adventure in the forest side by side. The leash is from an amazing company called Found My Animal, based out of New York. Their goal is to help raise awareness of the urgent need for animal adoption. They are fabulous leashes, do yourself a favor and get one, you won't regret it!
Searching for kitty
Back in the winter I photographed my friend Melissa at Mount Diablo. The story is about a young girl who lost her kitty. She goes on a quest to locate her lost friend.
Mixed Breeds
I absolutely love mixed breeds, they have such unique features. This project explores the macro detail of their facial features. These dogs were so much fun to work with. I also photographed them doing their best tricks, which I will post that series at a later time. Sierra is a cattle herder and beagle mix, she was rescued from ARF by Nicolette.
Josie is a lab shar pei mix. She is a part of my family, my husband and I rescued her from a San Diego animal shelter nearly 8 years ago.
Betty is a pug mix and was rescued by Gretchen. Cleo is a husky boxer mix. She is also a part of our dog pack, my husband and I rescued her at a dog park in San Diego when she was 8 weeks old.
Jenga is a golden lab ibiza mix and was rescued by my friends Staci and Max at the SF SPCA. Emma is a hound dachshund manchester terrier mix. She was rescued by Marie from ARF.
