re-’fur’-als + tweets + likes

This Bird finally started tweeting on twitter! I call them…..sweet tweets. Please do not try to say this 10 times fast (I take no responsibility of what it sounds like on the 10th time)

Without all of my awesome clients who spread the word and re’fur’ more awesome clients, really I would be very lonely…no honestly, you make up my pack and I am always so grateful for your kind words you send me and pass on to your friends following sessions.

Just so you know, there are some special things coming this Christmas to my top re-’fur’-ers!! We always ask where a new client has heard about Urban Dog Photog and I swear I need to have some of my top Urban Dog Photog re-’fur’ er embassadors on staff!!! you guys rock!

When you receive your  ” You have been Blogged” notice by email…. (lol) , you will notice three ways to mark your territory on a posting, please see my lovely, unskilled scribbled diagram below (personally the bird is my favorite, but I am biased)

so how it works is you can either leave your thoughts on the posting, or you could email the posting to anyone and everyone or you could chirp a tweet on twitter about the post too! Make sure you add yourself to my twitter feed as well @urbandogphotog………never know when a sweet tweet about a sweet session special may turn up………..

okay long day, my jokes are getting worse,

cheers

Wanted to post some images of a lovely old soul named Bandit! We shot this session at Bruce Pit recently after Bandit’s mom won a silent auction package we donated to the Ottawa Lupus Gala held at the Chateau Laurier back in May. Lupus is a part of my family and so when the organizers approached me to donate a session, I was all in! I am so glad the event was a success and brought awareness, visibility and new funds to this auto immune disease.  Below is information about the disease.

Lupus is a chronic and potentially life-threatening disease that affects over 50, 000 Canadians, of whom 90% are females typically diagnosed between the ages of 18 and 35. Lupus can attack any organ of the body causing recurrent illness, chronic pain and disability. Worldwide, lupus is more common than leukemia, multiple sclerosis and muscular dystrophy combined.

Lupus is an autoimmune disease, a type of self-allergy, whereby the patient’s immune system creates antibodies which instead of protecting the body from bacteria and viruses attack the person’s own body tissues. This causes symptoms of extreme fatigue, joint pain, muscle aches, anaemia, general malaise, and can result in the destruction of vital organs. It is a disease with many manifestations, and each person’s profile or list of symptoms is different.

Watching kids grow up is a really cool experience, speaking as a mom and as a professional photographer. I have known Pat & Mel since highschool, and have watched the evolution of their family. You may recognize Pat as the former Canadian football wide receiver who played with Ottawa Renegades,  Edmonton Eskimos and won two Greycups with the Montreal Alouettes. Pat is currently running his own training academy preparing young athletes for success on the field.

Our first round of sessions was for their first born and now we are in to the final stages of photographing their newest edition to the family. Capturing a family during a session is such a reward as an artist, they have such rich personal stories that leads to great images.

Helping you decide what to do with your photos following the session is part of the whole process. Although I have a blast during the actual shoot, I find some of the really inspiring parts also come from sitting down with my clients following their session and designing art for their walls right in front of their eyes. Combining photos from the session and placing them in different formulas, provides so many options for displaying your session images, like the  Tryptich poster below or a duo 30×34 wall canvas gallery combination. The ideas are unlimited.

Just a quick heads up again, FALL session spots are one of the busiest times of year and they are…………………..booking very fast, do not hesitate, I can secure your family portrait session a spot for your preferred time.
