Port Perry Pet Valu Walk for Guide Dogs

On Sunday past the Port Perry community came together to raise funds for the Guide Dogs of Canada by participating in a walk-a-thon around the town. The weather was perfect. Many townsfolk came out to support this phenomenal cause. Here are a sample of the images I took in Palmer Park, along the trail and ending up at Old Flame Brewing Co. To see the full gallery of 318 images and download your images free of charge visit our parent website https://www.springreilly.com/Pets/PetClient-Galleries/Dog-Guides-of-Canada-Walk-2023-Port-Perry/

Country Doodles

We recently had some beautiful Doodles in for portraits as our client wished to have new images for their website.

Paw Print Exotics

Cats are definitely challenging to photograph, especially when they travel to new locations. But, when the owners of Paw Print Exotics called and said they wanted to bring 6 Savannah cats and 1 African Serval to my studio for portraits I was overjoyed! We photographed their 7 felines in about 2 hours and the photos are stunning. I would have to say this was my most favourite session I have ever done in my 15 year career to date.

Not Pets but Wonderful All the Same

In December I had the most wonderful experience visiting the Green Elephant Sanctuary in Phuket Thailand. They rescue elephants from abuse and neglect offering a safe haven banning chains and riding. We were given the opportunity to feed each elephant cucumbers and bananas. We then covered the bodies and trunks of each elephant with mud from a shallow pond. Each elephant was then moved to a deeper pond where we rinsed the mud from them. After we showered in immaculate facilities we were given a fabulous lunch. These elephants are not pets but each one is assigned one caretaker. This person devotes their entire life to their elephant until death of either the elephant or themselves. If they die a family member takes over the care. This falls in keeping with my philosophy that pets are for life. I would highly recommend visiting this sanctuary should you make your way to Thailand.

Christmas Portraits-Socks

My daughter asked if she could have a photo session with her handsome cat Socks. We played in the studio with a variety of props and poses. Photographing cats is never easy but I’m really pleased with our results.

Fun in the Park

Tyson had fun playing in Palmer Park lakeside in Port Perry chasing a tennis ball while I made his photographs. Before we headed to the park we took some portraits in the studio. He was a ball of energy and so much fun to play with.
