We truly believe that a single image saves lives.
We’ve seen and heard time and time again how an adopter chose an animal because of their photo. In fact, over 60% of people say an image influences their adoption decision.
Here are Five Freedoms Photography, we believe that every dog, no matter their breed, age, medical needs, or behavior history, deserves to be seen and find their forever home.
That’s why since 2019, we’ve volunteered with local rescues and shelters across the Triangle to create beautiful, vibrant images to help these dogs be seen among the millions and millions of animals available for adoption.
The goal is to help them find their loving homes faster, and in turn, helping more dogs in need by creating space in foster and rescue.
But to do more, we need your help.
By becoming a Rescue Lens Sponsor, your business or organization can directly impact the lives of shelter dogs across the Triangle and beyond — while also being recognized for your community support.

Behind every beautiful photo of an adoptable dog is an incredible amount of heart — and real costs. While I donate my time to support rescue dogs (and have been since 2019), each session takes 4–6 hours between travel, shooting, editing, administrative tasks, blogging, and marketing. It’s time away from my business, and each session also includes:
Wear and tear on camera, lighting, and other gear
Assistant fees for safety and support as needed
Toys, treats, peanut butter, and more to keep their tails wagging
Accessories to keep them looking their best
Studio paper backdrops (when we offer studio sessions!)
Your sponsorship helps cover the essentials, so we can keep creating images that truly make a difference and continue to do so for years to come!
