I just want to say that I am so grateful to be part of such a great community of animal lovers. Not only do I get to photograph pets and their people, I have had the opportunities to give back by doing photography for local pet charities, including events for the Pet Community Center and Agape Animal Rescue. I really love being able to support the local pet charity community through my work!
On the blog today, I get to share an event I did in October called Cause for Paws which benefits the Nashville Humane Association (NHA) at the Belle Meade Country Club. (You can check all the photos here on the Cause for Paws website). The Nashville Humane Association is “committed to finding responsible homes, controlling pet overpopulation, and promoting the humane treatment of animals, all while supporting pets and pet-families in our community.” Please check it out if you are interested in adopting a pet, they have a wonderful facility in Nashville. For the event, NHA brought adoptable puppies for the guests to love on and potentially adopt!
The event always has a fashion show, and this year the designer, Shoshanna, showcased some of the beautiful dresses in her collection.
And a big congratulations to the 2023 winner of the Julia Colton Award for Excellence in Animal Welfare to Kimberly Wise. Ms. Wise is the President of the Pedigree Foundation, and also Senior Manager of Foster Programs at Greater Good Charities. Congratulations Kimberly, we are all so grateful for the great work you do!
Enjoy!
