Photography is about connections. Empathy is about feeling with, and connecting to, an Other — be it human, animal, or the environment. Valentines Day is about Love. Karen Moe Photography, specializing in Dog Art, is about connecting to all other animals through your love for your Dog
Karen Moe’s empathy for and love of dogs started in 2000 when she was in Havana, Cuba. Shocked by the number of strays on the streets of Central Havana, Moe photographed every dog she saw for 2 weeks. Through this project, not only did she discover her spiritual and aesthetic love for dogs, this photographic study, of both homeless and housed dogs a like, produced a profound awareness of the ‘essence of dog.’ The project resulted in a book in collaboration with poets Joe Rosenblatt and Catherine Owen published by Toronto’s Mansfield Press in 2008 called, simply, “Dog.”
Karen Moe Photography specializes in Dog Art. And, Vancouverites are crazy about their dogs! But Karen Moe Photography is unique in that, through loving your dog (even more!) by commissioning a Fine Art Dog Portrait, you have the opportunity to reach out to all animals as well as your beloved doggy. Throughout the year, Karen Moe Photography donates 5% of all shooting fees to animal protection organizations like the SPCA and the Wilderness Committee of the clients’ choice. And, during special events like February’s Love Month, the donation is increased to 10%. Through the love for our dogs, Karen Moe Photography extends love and empathy to all animals, under-privileged and ‘non’-dog alike.
