It’s finally time to share some of the great shots I took during the Bark & Bite Community Bake Sale! First, though, I’m thrilled to announce that the sale raised over $500 for FurKids. I hope that our donation will help them during these times when people are having to cut back on giving, and help them keep up the amazing work they do for our community. The support that we received for the bake sale was just wonderful – donations of time, energy and yummy treats were all so very much appreciated! We had items from The Little Cake Bakery, Chocolate Pink Cafe, Taj Mahound, Alon’s Bakery, Swoozie’s, and Piece of Cake, as well as many many delicious home-made goodies. Thank you to all who donated and to all who came out to join us last weekend! Here are some highlights from the day.
My poor kitty had to suffer through watching me make batches of home baked kitty treats all day on Friday! Of course, he also had the very important job of taste testing. He reminded me of myself when I make cake or cookies… constantly sneaking tastes of the batter. I think he approved of the treats!
Some shots of our delicious donations – dog cookies from Taj Mahound at left, and cupcakes from Little Cake Bakery at right. It’s a little hard to tell the people treats from the dog treats…
Happily we had lots of four-legged visitors to our bake sale. I did my best to get shots of as many of them as possible in between packing up customers’ purchases. I love the eyelashes on this pooch!
If there is one customer for whom a bake sale is especially exciting, it’s a kid! Are those shades the super-coolest or what. And if you look really closely, you’ll see just what this guy had in his sights amongst all those delicacies…
The classics. Home-made chocolate chip cookies. Good choice, Albert.
I did my best to capture this unlikely duo together while I could – they were pretty into their Taj Mahound goodies. But I loved watching the two of them together. This is what inspires me about dogs – they had absolutely no sense of the immense differences between them! Just best of buds.
Look at my dad soaking up some puppy love… you can see where I get my love of animals! How could he resist from that adorable face?
We saw a lot of this at the sale – with treats galore, it’s no surprise! That look on the right is one good “please, mommy…?!” puppy dog look if I ever saw one.
As if there wasn’t already a cuteness overload on hand Saturday, Samantha, the founder and director of FurKids, was able to stop by the sale with her new baby girl! Rosy cheeks like this will melt the hardest of hearts, I assure you. Not to mention those lashes.
But mainly it was babies of the furry variety that day, and they were all as adorable as any pet photographer could hope. Thanks to the people who let their pets bring them to the sale! If you’d like to see all of the images from the day, click on “info” in the menu bar above. Scroll down to “the proofs” and then click on “bake sale”. You can browse through all of the proofs and, if you see an image of your pet that you’d like to order, feel free to email me with the image number (they are listed on the bottom left corner of the proofs screen)! I’ll get back to you with more info on how to order.
One more big thank you to all who helped make the bake sale a success! Please stay tuned to our blogsite for info on the next upcoming charity event that SSP will be taking part in, PBR for Pups. Hope you all have a great Father’s Day weekend!
