A Vancouver photographer is calling on pet owners to be part of a new photo book she’s creating to raise funds for an animal organization.
Heather MacNeill, the owner of Rambling Hound Photography, is looking for animal lovers who have an extraordinary connection with their pet to be featured in a limited edition, hardcover photography book that will support the Citadel Canine Society in Vancouver.
MacNeill said the book, ANIMALITY: Connection, was inspired by the deep connections she has witnessed photographing animals over the past four years.
"Pet photography is 'a whole other animal'. Every picture tells a story, and every story frames our life,” MacNeill said.
To be part of the book pet owners have to pay an $89 registration fee, with 50 per cent of the fee going to Citadel Canine Society.
As part of the package, participants will receive a professional Rambling Hound pet photography session, a double-page spread in the book.
MacNeill said the books will be completed and available for purchase in Fall 2020 and $20 from each sale will also be donated directly back to the Citadel Canine Society.
The organization train and provide Medical Service Dogs for veterans, firefighters, police, paramedics, nurses, and 9-1-1 personnel who are diagnosed with PTSD or Occupational Stress Injuries.
