Paws with a Purpose – A book project to benefit Great Dog Rescue New England
Thank you for your interest in participating in Paws with a Purpose, Donna Kelliher Photography’s book project fundraiser for Great Dog Rescue New England. This project is all about capturing the special bond you share with your dog through portraits that will mean the world to you—and helping rescue dogs find their forever homes.
Great Dog Rescue New England (GDRNE) is a 501(C)(3) non-profit, shelterless, all-breed rescue group headquartered in Massachusetts. Their goal is to meet the needs of each dog and to assure proper placement in a loving forever home. They are also deeply involved in community outreach and supporting spay/neuter programs to ensure fewer dogs end up homeless nationwide.
Please complete the application below with as much detail as possible. If you have more than one dog that you would like to include, please include information about all of them on this application.
There are 30 sessions available. If you are selected, 100% of your session fee of $100 will be donated to Great Dog Rescue New England. They will also receive 100% of the proceeds from book sales and the donate-to-vote contests for the cover. My goal for this project is to raise $10,000 for GDRNE!
No fee is due unless your application is formally accepted into the project.
Please note that only potential applicants in consideration for a spot in the book will be contacted – either with an invitation to participate in an info call with me or to formally accept their spot. Spots will be offered to applicants who best fit the vision of this project and embrace the experience while supporting Great Dog Rescue New England’s vital mission.
Donna Kelliher Photography kindly requests that you refrain from reaching out to inquire about application status or submitting multiple applications. Please direct all questions about this project to Donna Kelliher Photography, as GDRNE is focused on their important mission and not involved in organizing this project.
The Art
While no purchase is required to participate in the book project, you will have the opportunity to purchase artwork and files after your session if you wish. Again, it’s NOT a requirement but an opportunity to enjoy your portraits outside of the book.
The Donna Kelliher Photography Experience
I’ve always believed dogs are pure magic. From their soulful gazes to their quirky personalities, every dog brings a special kind of joy—and I feel incredibly lucky to call photographing them my life’s work.
I capture the unconditional love you share with your dog. My goal is to help you celebrate the moments you never want to forget—with stunning artwork you’ll treasure forever.
Product pricing starts at $599 and typically clients invest around $1500 in their artwork. It all depends on how many portraits you can’t live without and how you want to display them. You only buy what you LOVE, no pressure.
Your registration fee does not include digital or printed products, and while there is no obligation to purchase anything following your session, you will have the opportunity to do so at an ordering appointment if you wish.
