more calendar dogs

thought i’d share with you a few more of the Kitchener-Waterloo Humane Society calendar dogs with a small selection of shots from their mini-shoots …

this is Buster … not even a year old he’s still got that puppy goofiness, but was very well-mannered for the shoot …

and Meesha, whose recent diagnosis isn’t very good and had me forgetting about what i’d set out to shoot for the calendar.  all i could think about was shooting enough memories for her mom.

    these are all very awesome, illona. The ones of Meeesha gave me goosebumps!!!!!!! Her mom should be thrilled and very grateful I’m sure.

    you have outdone yourself…this is truly a special thing you have done for the Kitchener-Waterloo Humane Society. Your generosity will not be forgotten, you have made my job as a fundraiser here at the Centre that much easier.

    Excellent series.

    You’ve proven it is possible to go from a word smith to a photographer. (And let’s keep in mind that old saying that each photo worth a thousand words but I’ve long known that no writer will ever agree to that!)
