As an animal lover, I am passionate about giving back. I’ve found the best way for me to help animals in need is to donate my photography services to various local, national and international organizations. This includes rescue groups, shelters and disaster relief funds (hello wildfire season!). Whether I'm photographing pets in need of a home, donating a photo session gift certificate to a fundraiser or volunteering my services for an organization with a photo event fundraiser, each year I participate in events that raise thousands of dollars for animals in need.
