Each year, Canine Colorado Magazine and DelaFoto Portraits team up with one lucky animal welfare organization in an effort to raise funds for their cause. This year, DelaFoto Portraits is supporting Colorado Pet Pantry by featuring black dogs for the 5th Edition of Canine Colorado Magazine.
HOW IT WORKS:
Anyone with a black dog (50% of the coat or more must be black) goes to the Canine Colorado’s website, and books a session with DelaFoto Portraits at their Denver-based studio.
For $250 your pet will receive:
- A full two-page spread in the magazine for up to two dogs (WOW!). Additional dogs and pages may be added for a fee (connect with DelaFoto on this).
- One 8×10″ mounted art print ($500 value) from your photography studio session.
- One complimentary copy of the magazine (valued at $35 or more).
- A studio cinematic presentation of the best portrait session images and DelaFoto’s art consultation for any additional artwork you may wish to purchase.
- A chance to be in the “Top 10 Cover Contest” taking place during the month of October.
This $250 fee is 100% a donation to Colorado Pet Pantry, and will go to provide 50 dogs or cats with a 30-day supply of pet food.
THE MAGAZINE:
This magazine is a 50+ page tribute to man’s best friend. It is printed on thick paper stock, has wonderful stories about many of the dogs inside, and is solely created to support animal-based nonprofit organizations. Only one magazine is produced each year, and makes a wonderful gift for your family and friends during the holidays. For each magazine sold, Colorado Pet Pantry will receive an additional $15 donation from Canine Colorado.
WHY BLACK DOGS:
Black dog syndrome is a phenomenon in pet adoption in which black dogs are ignored in favor of light-colored ones. Observed by shelters and rescue groups across the world, this is an issue negatively affecting the adoption rates of black dogs. By shining a light on this (literally a studio photography light) we hope to bring awareness to this issue and showcase how beautiful these dogs really are.
