While I was doing some photography for The Boys and Girls Club, in Bemdiji,
I was introduced to the BARC program. Bemidji Area Reading Canines, is a volunteer group that brings dogs into the schools to help children with their
reading skills. The dogs sit with them while the children read. How cool is that?
I thought it would be super fun to get to know a few of these furry friends so I invited them to the studio for a play date.
Here are a few of my favorite images.

I have been doing many business portraits lately. I love to see people using professional pictures to represent their professional lives!

It's raining cats at the Beltrami Humane Society in Bemidji. I had a great time playing with all the little kitties that are ready to find a loving home. Brandon mentioned that they are having a special on cats right now.

Here are some of them attacking my camera bag. there are a lot of flaps, cords and buckles that are very captivating.
