The Pets calendar features images from client sessions in 2011. View and purchase the Pets Calendar.

For Luna fans, her annual calendar is filled with images from 2011 and includes a couple of special guests. December includes, as always, a special santa hat image. View and purchase Luna’s calendar.

If you’re a past client (doesn’t matter how far in the past) and would like a calendar featuring your pet only, I also create custom calendars using your images. You can either choose the images you want in the calendar yourself or leave it up to me. There is a $50 setup fee and calendars are then available for purchase online for $27 each + postage. Just send me an email to get the ball rolling!

Here’s a calendar I made for Albert the cancer survivor. You can view Albert’s blog post and read his story here.

Here’s a few of my favourites from recent sessions to get you thinking.

“This award is for a  fantastic and creative pet photographer that has a combination of artistic flair and modern creativity capturing the emotion of the moment.”

After winning the First Class Pet Photographer category in the 2009 Paws and Claws Awards, I’d love to receive the award two years running and like last year, I’m up against some stiff competition.

Unlike last year, nominees this year have the opportunity to offer additional prizes for voters and so far I have seen some great incentives on offer to vote for some of the other nominees. I’ve decided however that instead of offering prizes for voting for me, I’d like to receive votes based only on my merit as a photographer and small business owner.

I’m proud of my business and what I have achieved over the last few years, so feel that any votes I receive should be based on that rather than the prospect of winning a prize. After all, they are supposed to be the People’s Choice Awards! I would much rather give back to my supporters unconditionally by running my own little competitions and giveaways (as anyone who follows my work and my Facebook Page will know) as well as taking the time to provide some light entertainment and imagery through my blog and also Luna’s blog.

So, if you’d like to support me this year and cast your vote in the field of First Class Pet Photographer for Charlotte Reeves Photography, there will be no sub-competitions and prizes for voters, but I will pledge to continue supplying a friendly, professional and exciting service, all the while giving back to my friends, clients and supporters as I have always done.

To vote, you’ll need to fill out the official voting form on the Paws and Claws website. I’ve created a screenshot of how to fill out the bottom section of the form correctly, see below. Thanks for your vote!

The awards presentation will be held at the 8th Annual Gold Coast Pet & Animal Expo on the 5th September. I’m having a stall at the Expo and would love to meet you and your furry family members if you come and check it out.

Here’s a few favourites from my most recent sessions to get you thinking!

Looking for the perfect gift for your beloved mother this Mother’s Day? If she adores her dog then the perfect solution is a “Mum and Furbaby” photo session gift certificate. Your Mum can choose to have some photos taken of her with her fur child, or she might choose to have her doggy as the exclusive modelling star, whatever she feels comfortable with.

Remember I also photograph other pets such as cats and horses, so no worries if your Mum’s favourite furbaby is not of the canine variety.

My Mother’s Day special this year includes a personalised custom gift voucher which includes the session plus a beautiful 12 x 18 inch (30 x 45 cm) framed print of her favourite shot. All this for the super low price of $295 – my way of giving back to mothers everywhere this Mother’s Day!

To arrange the gift for your Mum, just get in contact (call me on 0402 322 973 or flick me an email at pix@charlottereeves.com.au) and let me know the following info:

• her name
• your name (plus any siblings who are chipping in!) for the gift certificate
• a personal message (1-2 lines) for the gift certificate
• your address (I’ll send the certificate here so you can present it personally to her on the day)
• her address (so I can send her out some additional info after Mother’s Day so she can book her session)

The cutoff day for purchasing the gift is Tuesday 4th May to allow me time to create the certificate and send it out to you.

Dear Supporters of Horses,

I am writing to you with a special appeal for Charlie’s Angels Horse Rescue Inc.

We are growing in strength and numbers, and building strong ties with the community. As a registered, sanctioned and incorporated organisation, we are required to hold insurance.

This insurance is expensive, and we need $1700 just for the basic public and property liability insurance, and another $1000 for additional insurance that will help protect our members.

We have delayed doing this because that amount of money in one hit was difficult for a new organisation to achieve in the first six months of operation. However, the time has come for us to do this.

Charlie’s Angels is one of only TWO official and sanctioned horse welfare charities in Queensland. We are fulfilling a vital role and helping to meet the gap in horse welfare and we will only get bigger from here.

I am appealing to you for some assistance to help us meet this cost so that we can continue to direct our much-needed funds to our horses.

Donations $2 and over are tax deductible.

If you can contribute any amount of money, it would be greatly appreciated at this time.

You can donate via internet transfer, cheque/money order or PayPal. Click HERE to be taken to payment options.

Thank you so much for your assistance in helping the horses.

Joanne Schoenwald
President/Founder, Charlie’s Angels Horse Rescue Inc.

I’ve had a few enquiries from Melbournites lately so I’ve decided to book a trip for late February.

The remaining spots I have to fill are:

Friday 26th – Afternoon session (starting around 5-6pm)
Saturday 27th – Morning session (starting around 6.30am) Filled!

Travel sessions are based on the $395 DVD Session which includes all final images posted to you on DVD, ready for both printing and sharing online. Photo products are still available if you wish to order them. A $100 deposit will be required to secure your booking, with the remaining payable before the session.

Don’t forget gift certificates are also available so if you know someone in Melbourne who you think deserves the gift of a photo session for their beloved pooch, let me know and we’ll get it organised!

If you are keen to book a shoot for some natural, candid and creative on-location photos of your dog or dogs (and don’t forget I also love photographing horses), contact me to find out more. Sessions are very limited and I’m not sure when I will next be back in Victoria, so get in quick!
