The Dogs Around the Lakes series for 2009 will wrap up with a final poster for Lake Nokomis. Marilyn and I are normally Lake Harriet or Calhoun walkers so it I am excited to get out to a lake that I don't otherwise explore! Think of all the new dogs and families I'll be able to meet! The photo shoot for this poster will be Sunday, September 27th from 10am to 4pm. I highly recommend scheduling a time slot with me so your dog can have a full session with the camera. You can RSVP by emailing: sarah.lintu@gmail.com. There is no fee for the photo shoot! Send an invite to dog lovers you know!
A little background about Dogs Around the Lakes: This project is an annual poster series specifically for the chain of lakes in Minneapolis (Calhoun, Harriet, Isles etc). One day is scheduled as the photo shoot and each beautiful dog receives a 5 minute session for free! Sixteen of the dogs are selected for the poster which takes about one month to create. When complete, everyone is invited for the unveiling where the pups receive treats and praise for their stardom. Posters are available for purchase but having a dog on the poster does not make purchasing a poster an obligation! This is a project to celebrate our dog friends!

Explaining how to spell Koira again and again (Finnish for 'dog') seemed like a big task
