Here’s the latest Spot Magazine Cover of foster dog Kevyn (who now has a forever home!) with his foster dad Brian. Photo by me! Inside read the great article by Nikki on the important role fostering plays in animal rescue.

My next Pet Photography class happens the next 2 Mondays (Feb 21 and 28) from 6:00pm-8:30 at the Oregon Humane Society. I still have room for a few more, so please let anyone who’d like to learn more about taking great photos of their pets know. The class is aimed at begining photographers so no special background needed. There’s more info in the link above, and you can also sign up there. Drop me a note if you’ve got questions!

If you miss this class and would like to attend a future class, drop me an email.  We schedule this partly based on demand- so emails help us schedule.

Meet Bo, winner of the 2010 Spot Magazine Cover model search. I photographed Bo at his home and we all had a great time. The best photos often come out of sessions where we are all having a lot of fun and that was certainly the case with Bo. Thanks Bo!
