Commercial clients who hire Cowbelly Pet Photography for commercial assignments and image licensing

Model call update

Thank you thank you to all of the folks who responded to my call for models!! I was really worried about getting that many dogs lined up in such a short period of time, but leave it to the canine-lovers of the Seattle area to step up to the plate. I was overwhelmed with responses. Boy do we love our dogs!

I am getting ready to send the last email to the last group of dog owners my clients have hand-picked.

I was moved by every single dog photo I received; some even made me laugh out loud. If it were up to me I would use every single one of the 50-some odd dogs who volunteered to participate!

Now, having said that, I am still in need of two dogs.

The Golden Retriever puppies!

I will be emailing some breeders tonight, but sadly none of them are anywhere nearby. If anyone knows of anyone who has a litter of GR puppies, or a breeder in Seattle or relatively nearby, please let me know!

Thanks so much and I will pick back up with blogging once the storm of work this week has blown over.

Happy Monday! :-)

Models needed STAT!!! April 2008

I am in need of dogs for a major commercial dog photo shoot, and I need to get them lined up ASAP!

(I have known about this assignment for the past couple of weeks but it was just confirmed today, otherwise would have posted this earlier I promise.)

The shoot itself is taking place on Thursday 4/17/09 during the day, most likely at Discovery Park in Seattle, and possibly in a couple of other Seattle locations.

Model parents only need to commit to a minimum of 1 hour but ideally 2. (Great excuse to take off work!). Times are flexible and TBD.

Locations TBD, but most likely all within the City of Seattle.

This is a very exciting opportunity for local pet owners! You will have the chance to not only have your pooch photographed by yours-truly but his/her likeness may also be seen on pet products around the country!

After seeing Fergie’s pictures in CityDog Magazine this week I can tell you it’s a thrill to see your dog’s face where loads of other people will see it and admire it too. Gives a person such pride in their furry beloved! Not to mention serious bragging rights.

Here is what I need:

  • All adult dogs, unless otherwise noted.
  • 5 years of age or younger.
  • Medium sized up to large sized, but not giant breeds.
  • All healthy and bright-eyed without any visible skin or teeth issues.
  • All healthy weights.
  • No dog, human or fear-based aggression. Get along great with both humans and dogs.

*And this is important* they need to have good solid, reliable obedience skills: at least: sit, stay, down, come.

Ideally what I am looking for is happy-go-lucky dogs.

UPDATED TUESDAY 4/15 9:15AM

Breeds:

  • several Golden Retriever mixes, or medium-light colored large mixed breeds: young: 2-5 years, female or male. Ideally happy-go-lucky ‘Smiley dogs’.

Ditch those boring cell phone screensavers!

And get yourself a brand-spanking new one that expresses your love (or obsession) with pets!

Several months ago I put up a post about the new mobile website I contribute content to called Pet Lounge. Well, I was so excited that I accidentally jumped the gun because they were still in beta mode at that time. (woops).

Well now they are totally live and they are just waiting for folks to come and download their favorite pet-themed ringtones and screensavers! At less than $2 for a wallpaper, it’s a super affordable way to add a little bit of color and joy to your life. Heck- you could even have one for every day of the week and still not break the bank.

Along with lots of Decopaw art screensavers from yours-truly, there are also a whole host of other fun images, including some of the cutest kitten photos I have ever seen.

Or, if it’s your ringtone that really makes you yawn (or annoys the people in your office), try downloading a houndog or purring kitty ringtone- they are so cool! I guarantee you will be the only person in the elevator whose phone is mooing, lol.

Have fun!!
