Casteel Hands Out a Canon at Animal Expo

Debbie Heller of Little Rock Animal Village in Arkansas was thrilled to receive a Canon Rebel Digital SLR Camera from Seth Casteel along with a few tips on how to photograph the pets at her shelter. Heller won a drawing at the Humane Society of the United States’ Animal Care Expo in Nashville last week.

Famed animal photographer Casteel signed copies of his book Underwater Dogs as part of the One Picture Saves A Life tour. Casteel is criss-crossing the country teaching people how to take better pet photos and help their local animal rescue groups in a series of free workshops sponsored by The Animal Rescue Site, GreaterGood.org, the Petfinder Foundation, and John Paul Pet.

At the Petfinder booth at the Expo as well as during a talk in the evening with “Cat Daddy” Jackson Galaxy, Casteel discussed with shelter workers and rescue volunteers how to present a pet in a winning way to encourage adoption.

The next stop on the One Picture Saves A Life tour is Las Vegas, NV. Registration is currently open for his photo workshop at The Animal Foundation on June 15.
