It’s almost that time agin! Time for the 7th Annual PawPrints fundraiser to benefit All Breed Rescue & Training. For four days we’ll be doing mini sessions with all the session fees going to ABRT. Mark your calendars: Friday & Saturday February 26 & 27 and March 4 & 5 are this years dates. Watch this space as we’ll post a link to on line signups beginning February 8, 2016.
This year there will be 2 tiers of mini sessions: one for regular fundraiser sessions and one for The Calendar. The calendar will be a Competition with selections for the 2017 Calendar made by the Paw Prints sponsors. If you wish to have your pet featured in the calendar you need to read the following:
2016 CALENDAR COMPETITION: (for 2017 Calendar
2016 THEME: SPORTS
1. Only pets will be considered for the calendar competition (not pets + owner portraits).
2. All portraits for the calendar MUST be taken through the Paw Prints 2016 Fundraiser
3. The Competition will revolve around the theme: SPORTS Be as creative as you can! The sky is the limit (well it does have to fit into the studio). You must provide the idea/costume/props for your pet. Studio will help you set up your props and provide appropriate backdrop and lighting for the portrait. If you have an idea and need help with selecting props feel free to email or call (719.475.0160) us for assistance.
A list of possible sports to consider is below. Less is more—don’t overload the photo—so maybe a jersey for a sport + one piece of equipment (bat, ball, hockey stick etc)
4. Calendar Competition sessions will be $45 (All goes to ABRT) and includes the usual 5x7 portraits. For calendar $45 you may enter 2 different sports themes (ie; baseball for one, football the other).These sessions will be a bit longer than the normal Paws mini sessions to accommodatethe setup.
