With the help of HeARTs Speak, a group of talented local photographers has come together to help our Muddy Paws Pack raise funds and support our foster dogs while showcasing the beautiful faces our community during a time when many of us are isolated.

For a donation of $125 or more, you will receive a mini socially distanced photoshoot of you and your pets from one of our participating photographers and directly support countless rescue pups in finding their forever homes!

A Pawtrait for Good 2.0 will be ending on July 31, or until all photo sessions are sold out.


Session Fee: $125

Proceeds from the session will be donated to Muddy Paws Rescue and HeARTs Speak.

The session will include 3 web-resolution photos, meant for sharing digitally and on social media.

Prints & high-resolution photos will be available for purchase and priced by each photographer.

How It Works

Pets and kids are encouraged to participate!

You will hear from the photographer assigned to your area within 2-weeks of your sign-up date to schedule a photo shoot.

  • For everyone’s safety, our photographers will be at least 6 ft away from you and your family.

  • Sessions will be in front of your home or building. We want to show off the New York neighborhoods that we live in during our favorite time of year!

  • Photos look great when they are on your stoop or the front steps of your building.

FAQ

+ CAN I CHOOSE WHICH PHOTOGRAPHER I GET MY PET PORTRAIT FROM?

We will be assigning your family portrait to one of our many talented photographers based on their availability and where you are located. While we’re unable to assign these based on preference, we promise that your photoshoot is in great hands!

+ HOW DO I SCHEDULE MY PHOTOSHOOT ONCE I HAVE DONATED?

You will be matched and connected with an artist based on the neighborhood that you live in. The Muddy Paws team will connect you with the artist that you have been matched with. Scheduling will be at the discretion of each artist. Once you have been matched, your photographer will be able to answer additional scheduling-related questions.

+ CAN I PURCHASE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS?

Additional hi-resolution digital photos and prints can be purchased directly from the artist that you are matched with. Pricing and fulfillment are determined by each photographer. Questions about purchasing additional photos can be directed to your photographer.

You do not have to have a dog in your photos but you are encouraged to include your pets in your shoot.

+ WHAT IS INCLUDED WITH MY DONATION?

With a $125 donation towards our lifesaving mission, you will be matched with a photographer who will conduct a 10-15 minute mini photoshoot outside your residence. Each photographer will provide you with 3 social media sized photos that are watermarked with our campaign information. Full-length photoshoots or additional photos can be purchased and scheduled directly with a photographer. .

+ CAN I CHOOSE AN ALTERNATIVE PHOTOSHOOT LOCATION?

The style of this photoshoot is intended to be outside of each person’s home or apartment building. In order to keep the style consistent, we will not accommodate shoots in different locations.

+ WHAT IF MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS NOT LISTED?

We are offering spots based on where our photographers are able to shoot. We will be adding new photographers throughout the campaign. Please check back regularly for additional locations and photographers. If you’d like to be notified when new photographers have been added to the campaign, please email pawtraitforgood@muddypawsrescue.org for more information.
