Calling schnauzer lovers! TBT
We had a family in over the weekend for a photo shoot with their 2 giant schnauzers and they reminded us of this fun trio of mini schnauzers from 4 years ago. They were so fun to work with and to see their different personalities. This picture of them in the red wagon is one of our favorite dog portraits from over the years. Our client also loved this picture so much that they chose this picture as a 60" canvas for their family room. We love when clients want to go BIG with their artwork!
"You need professional pictures of your dog!"
Mark's had the privilege of photographing this lovely lady prior to fitness competitions in the past and he was thrilled when she contacted him about doing a photo shoot with her boxer, Dixie. After seeing the pictures from their session, she was overwhelmed. "Trust me when I say "get some professional pictures of your pets!" I'm sooo thankful for the work of Mark Stevens and his passion for dog photography!" These are pictures of her BFF that she will treasure forever.
If you've thought of having professional pictures taken of your pets in the past, don't put it off! Book your session with Mark now.
See us in Modern Dog Magazine!
Have you seen the new issue of Modern Dog Magazine? If you haven't then you should pick up an issue and see the nice article by Mark! The article talks about ways to use your love for photography to help shelter pets get adopted. Several of shelter dogs that Mark has photographed over the years were also featured. A good picture for the shelter or rescue's website is sometimes the difference between a dog finding a forever home and either living in the shelter for years or being put to sleep because it was deemed not adoptable. If you have the time and interest, please consider donating your time at your local animal shelter!

Harley's Photo Shoot
We had a very special visitor in the studio today. Harley, spokes dog for the National Mill Dog Rescue, was back for another photo shoot with us. We're working on a special project with him to help raise more money for NMDR and we'll be revealing the photos from his shoot soon, so stay tuned for more information! Hint: you'll want this for the holidays this year!
Meet the Modern Dog Magazine Fall Cover Dog
We were thrilled to be contacted by the folks at Modern Dog Magazine recently to photograph their fall cover dog, Harley. Harley began his life at a puppy mill and lived a fairly terrible life until being rescued. Harley is now a spokesdog against puppy mills and works with National Mill Dog Rescue, an amazing group who is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and re-homing puppy mill dogs. Harley was a great little model at his photo shoot! Book a photography session for your dog with Mark by 9/30/14 and mention Harley and we'll donate your session fee to the National Mill Dog Rescue.
Happy National Dog Day!
Today is National Dog Day! Your dog won't understand the holiday, but it's a good reminder to be thankful for our favorite furry companions that we can sometimes take for granted.
Photo Fundraiser for the Doberman Rescue of New Mexico
June 21-22, we're opening our Denver studio to anyone who would like to support the Doberman Rescue of New Mexico by participating in our photo fundraiser. Two photo session options are available:
$75 Lite Sessions are for families who would like a portrait done of a single dog. These sessions are typically 20-30 min. There are limited Lite sessions available.
$200 Art Lover Sessions are for families who would like to create fine art for their home. This photography session can be used for multiple dogs, dogs with kids, whole families, or children only and typically lasts around an hour. During your session, we focus on creating a variety of options to become fine art pieces for your walls of your home. This session includes a $75 credit toward any wall art (wall art comes in many formats and is 20"x20" or larger).
100% of all photography sessions will be donated to DRNM. This is a great way to raise some money for the rescue, while creating a custom piece of art for your home.
All dog breeds are welcome to participate - this event is not limited to Dobermans. Contact us today to reserve spot!
French Bulldog Puppy Portraits
Many of our clients want to bring in the newest addition to their families just as soon as they get them for puppy portraits. This little guy is barely 8 weeks old and his first outing with his new family was to come to our studio. His big sister, also a french bulldog, came along for some doggie sibling pictures. If you're planning to get a new furry family member, consider planning your pet photography around the time you bring the new puppy home. It's fun to capture them as puppies and then again, once they've grown up a little.
