Using Facebook, Photographers do good…

Many of you might have seen the picture we posted last week on Facebook of a fantastic terrier/corgi mix that is currently being fostered and looking for a home. His current provider took him in, trained him and has been loving him ever since. If you know of a good home for him, please contact us…

Meet BUSTER

More to the point is the idea that many of us try to make a difference in our communities. The Facebook community has grown leaps and bounds and as such, is now a marketplace to meet new people, stay in touch with old friends, or even help little strays such as Buster.

Last February Ginger Monteleone, a real estate photographer in Miami, took in a single stray named Cali and ended up a stray advocate photographer for a lot of other pups as well! She used Facebook to connect with many other advocates. Kudos to all the photographers out there trying to make a difference! Check out Ginger’s article here:

As many of you know Penny Palmer Photography does a lot of volunteer work with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, http://www.NILMDTS.org

We also like to go down to the Seattle Waterfront and feed the homeless in exchange for their time modeling for us and sharing their stories. If you’d like to go with us, please email us. It’s a win-win day for everyone!

We appreciate the opportunity to be involved in our community and welcome your suggestions and inquiries.

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Foote

We’d like to extend our congratulations to the recently wed Mr. and Mrs. Bill and Deana Foote!

We had the pleasure of shooting their amazing day for them a couple weeks ago. Their wedding took place in Seattle at a quaint little spot with a rustic theme. The family and friends participating in the wedding included the most noble of all ring bearers we’ve ever photographed – their Weinheimer pup, Ash.

Their colors were a beautiful royal blue and yellow and really made the wedding pop! They were fortunate to have their union blessed by their family friend. The excitement didn’t stop there.

The wedding party was gathered at the edge of the lake for family photos to commemorate this wonderful day. Penny actually rolled up her pants and climbed in to get the exact images she was hoping to capture for them! The traditional shots were taken along with some… not-so-traditional poses. We really enjoyed the playfulness and excitement of everyone in attendance!

That afternoon we returned to their reception in Northgate and brought along a fully edited DVD slideshow many of their wedding pictures set to music for them to project during dinner. Their reception was one of the best we’ve worked at – organized and filled to the max with laughter, well-wishers, and children with amazing dance skills! The food was out of this world, catered by one of their closest friends!

What an all-round beautiful day and wonderful start for a most amazing couple. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your celebration!
