What is Tails of the World?
Fundraising book project
Tails of the World is a collaborative project from professional pet photographers all around the globe. We've united to help raise funds for pet rescue and spread joy with beautiful photography and heartwarming stories – all combined into a beautiful coffee table book.
In 2023, Tails of the World Volume 2 raised over $65,000 for rescue charities around the globe, W-O-W!!!!
In 2023, I photographed ten dogs from the Missoula area for the Tails of the World Volume 2 book, released in March 2024. The session fees from these shoots were donated to the Montana Pittie Project, and all sales proceeds from the book are donated to Second Chance Animal Rescue. 100% of the proceeds from both the sessions and book sales are dedicated to animal rescue efforts. These books are now available for purchase worldwide.
In 2024, I photographed 10 dogs in the Treasure Valley for the Tails of the World 2024 Edition book. This issue has raised over $75,000 for pets in need!
In 2024 I was again selected as an official photographer for Tails of the World: 2024 Edition to feature Dogs of the Treasure Valley.
100% of these session fees were donated to Boxer Lovers Rescue and one photo from each session is included in the book. All proceeds from the book sales are donated to Geelong Animal Welfare Society. Participants also had the opportunity to view and purchase keepsake photographic artwork from their unique doggy photoshoot.
Below photos show the Tails of the World Volume 2 book which features the 10 dogs I photographed in the greater Missoula, Montana area in 2023.

Shannon was so much fun to work with! I've never done any professional pictures with my dogs, she made me very comfortable and was great at getting Dempsey to pose! :) The photos are fantastic!!! Everyone I have shown them to absolutely loves them!!! I would definitely work with her again if I wanted to do pet pictures again! If you're thinking about having pictures taken of, or with, your furkids you won't find anyone better!!! I'm very proud my Dempsey is a part of the Tails Of The World fundraising project for 2024!!

We appreciated how Shannon engaged with our dog during the session; both for how it helped us and our pup feel more comfortable, and for how it helped her to find our pup's best reaction and angles. We were blown away when we saw the photos for the first time. We were amazed how well she was able to capture our dog's personality in each photo. We're looking forward to sharing the photos with our friends and family, and will certainly be recommending her services to them.

Such an amazing experience! I've never participated in a professional photo session before, let alone one for a pet. Shannon is absolutely incredible. Her kindness and enthusiasm made the session so inviting; and she actually took the time to get to know me and my dog. When I first saw the photographs, I cried! They are even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Shannon is such an amazing person and artist; I will definitely choose her for future portrait sessions!
