Leaving behind something beautiful...: December 2012

A while back T.Hawke Photography teamed up with The South Wood County Humane Society . My goal was to bring in as many donations of cat food as we could. And I was willing to give away a Session to make that happen. One entry for every large bag of cat food donated. Thank you to everyone who donated to help feed all the Cats still looking for homes . There are so many mouths to feed and anything you can give will help more then you can imagine. Can't afford to make donations.. your time can be worth just as much. These poor cats spend sometimes up to a year..... Sitting in their cages , day after day . A small stainless steel cage. Big enough for a sleeping area directly above there food , water , and litter box. Month after month they wait.. hoping that someone will take them home . Give them a second chance. I myself find it hard to even photograph these beautiful little souls. Simply because I want to take them all home. My husband always tells me when I leave to photograph them not to come back home with another one. These animals have so much to give. And if all you can give is your time, a little time out of their cage to snuggle , play, to remember what it is like to be loved... Helps keep hope alive in these animals that someday they will find a home.

Sooooooo in celebration of our little event a BIG Congratulations goes out to Sheila. T.HawkePhotography's

Complementary Session Winner!

And what a wonderful person to have won. Sheila has 4 Cats. All rescued shelter cats. And I have to say.. they were a lot of fun. I set up my lights and camera. Laid out a cozy little blanket and they worked there magic. From Shelter Cat to Supermodel. They posed and posed and posed for me. Bunch of little camera buffs they were. I was so happy to be able photograph these cats .. kind of a happy ever after story. All once abandoned .. now in a warm cozy home being spoiled with all the love in the world. And they so deserve it.
