Holiday Pop Up Pet Portrait Sessions at CB2 Soho!
January 1, 2018I was honored to partner with CB2 Soho for another pet portrait day, this time with some holiday flair and LOTS more dogs!
Our first pet portrait day in April was a huge success with a special appearance by celebridog Wally the Welsh Corgi, a very happy adoption match between the founder of maison de pawZ and teeny chihuahua Marcel (formerly Eddie from Friends with Four Paws), and best of all, we raised $3400 for Foster Dogs, Inc.!
After the success of the April event with 17 dogs coming through the store for their professional pet portraits, I was expecting 25-30 dogs for the Holiday Pet Portrait Day. Imagine my surprise when I took a break from shooting photos and turned around to see a whole crowd of dogs and dog lovers waiting behind me!
I fell in love with each of the 57 dogs I photographed that day so I couldn’t possibly pick a favorite. Instead I have decided to recognize each dog’s unique star qualities in the first ever NYC Pet Photographer Awwwwards!
