... It's All About The Dogs ...

Animal, Nature, B&W Photography & Photo Art I am Sharon, but my friends call me Uni, please feel free to do the same. I have been a photographer, artist and writer ever since I was a little girl. Until the past few years, I have merely dabbled in my creative side as I continued to watch closely, listen intently, live fervently and learn as much as possible. I have been wife, mother, instructor, philosopher, dog trainer, gardener, counselor, volunteer and more. I am still learning who I am; I am one of the fortunate souls to have the freedom to be myself and it is the most challenge I have ever faced. My goal is to be a writer and photographer. Photojournalist? Maybe. Writing is my passion, photography and art my vision. Animals, dogs in particular, are my soul. Being wrapped in nature completes me. From the tiniest insect to an ocean panorama, I hope to bring the extraordinary to view with all my endeavors. My wonderful husband Dan (better known as Wolf) helps in every way he can ("tote that barge, lift that bale"). A skilled film photographer in his own right, he handles the technical aspects of our fun. Although most don't ever see him, he's always with me. He gives new meaning to the "Silent Partner" stereotype. Portraits and Action There's nothing like the adreneline rush of an animal in action. Action photography is immediately gratifying. An active environment brings out the true spirit of any animal; intensity, beauty and the expression of energy caught in a photo is timeless. I have shot events such as the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition, Purina Incredible Dog Team, DockDogs, and more. From dogs to birds, if it moves fast, I find it a challenge to catch beauty it in motion. However, I've also enjoyed photographing "Santa Paws" and local park posed pictures as well, that too is quite a challenge! Getting any animal to stay still that doesn't want to, well, herding cats comes to mind, especially when there are a hundred or more dogs waiting. I prefer to work with animals in natural settings. Done separately from events, dogs are suited best for their own yard where they are most comfortable (and most times won't need a leash) or a dog friendly park. Be it for portrait sittings or just a running jaunt, the animal must be in a relaxed mood. I have yet to find any animal I don't like, and years of dog training, rescue and ownership has allowed me patience and understanding of behavior. I am also owned by cats and certainly understand the patience necessary for working with them. Indoor sessions are obviously going to be a necessity at times. Want to include the kids? Yourself? The whole family? All can be worked out as necessary. As you can see by pictures I've included here, I do many types of photography and I am always open to new ideas and experiences to learn and grow. If you are interested in having a photo session done please use the contact email above or give me a call. I am available for individuals and events, personal or organizations. |

EVENT PHOTOS It is not uncommon to shoot 1000-3000 photos at an event. In order to have the photos online in a reasonable amount of time, images are first processed for standards, then uploaded with little to no editing. This can take 24 - 72 hrs. (longer if I am traveling outside of SC) I use Photoshop CS3 for editing as necessary to give you the highest quality image possible. This includes lighting, shading, exposure, sharpening, removing or blending undesirable background 'noise' whenever possible. Depending on workload, orders can take a couple days up to two weeks. Any orders taking longer will be sent a notification. SHIPPING IS INCLUDED IN ALL PRICESRecently Uploaded Photos |
www.karmafotos.com Past events are always kept in archives. If you do not see an event online at Uniwolf Prints, I still have it. Request a contact sheet for your dog (or other event) and I will send it to you directly from which you may order. |
