Dog Day Morning! Funds raised so far with doggy photos.

Doggies thank their owners for getting involved with this project!
We have earnt for the McGrath Foundation over $250 so far and it is slowly climbing.
Keep up the great work towards this charity.


The websales will be finishing soon so we can complete the paperwork and get the cheque off to the foundation. So please do not delay looking at your dogs photos & making those decisions. Once the event closes no further sales are possible of these images at these prices and its a great charity to get behind. See below for web sales site & passwords.

There was a very interesting talk this morning with Tracey Bartram early morning ABC 774 about putting off mamograms for early detection of Breast Cancer. I thought guys were the only ones who delayed medical checkups! Don't delay it, its just essential. One of the roles that the foundation has is for breast cancer awareness campaigns.

Have a great day!

A big thank you to my staff at Port Melbourne Photography: Teresa for planning designing and getting the posters out to the shops. Penny for those early starts and phone support and for Tina in our Production & Design area for producing those lovely images.


Final orders are now being taken thru the website. See below for passwords, etc.

Thank you all!
