I Photographed Over 200 Families With Rescued Dogs To Inspire Others To Adopt

In September 2014 I decided to meet people around New York and Toronto and photograph their rescued dogs and how rescuing a dog has impacted their lives.

I wanted to showcase the many different dogs and people who adopt and allow them to celebrate their very personal relationships with their dogs. When the internet is filled with so many sad homeless dog stories, I feel it’s important to highlight the many delightful endings these dogs have.
