Sunshine, tail wags, and more than $2,000 raised for Humane Society Naples—FloriDay was a day to remember!

4/5 - Mutt March

Magnets, pup cups, and so many happy tails! We had an absolute blast at Mutt March 2025, where The PAWtographers and Urban Paws & Pals went all out in true tail-wagging style. We packed the doggie swag bags with custom magnets (yes, your fridge just got cuter), and tucked a few surprise Golden Tickets inside for lucky pups to win special prizes. Both brands gave away a full Signature Session—one urban, one classic—because we believe in equal opportunity glam for every dog. Our selfie wall kept tails wagging and cameras clicking, and our pup cup bar? Let’s just say it was the most slobber-worthy stop on the route. We had the best time meeting everyone—thanks for making our booth the place to sniff, smile, and strike a pose!

2/22 – Paws & Pints

Pups, pints, and a whole lot of personality—Paws & Pints at Shearwater was everything we love about local events wrapped up in one sunny Saturday! Both Urban Paws & Pals and The PAWtographers were on-site with our “You Had Me at Woof” selfie wall (spoiler: it stole the show), endless pup cups, and not one—but two giveaways for a Signature Session, one from each brand. From curious puppies to seasoned selfie pros, we met some of the best dogs (and dog lovers) in St. Johns County. Thanks to everyone who stopped by, posed, and said hello—we had a blast celebrating with you, and we can’t wait to do it again!

When a 13-year-old shop dog earns 16,300 votes and raises $16,300 for shelter pets, you roll out the superhero set. Pacer, the beloved greeter at Gotham City Limit, won Jacksonville’s Cutest Pet Contest and the hearts of an entire city. We transformed our studio into a Gotham-style alley to match his heroic reputation—graffiti walls, glowing city lights, and all. His joyful grin now graces billboards across Jacksonville and the JHS website, helping raise awareness and funds for animals in need. This wasn’t just a photoshoot—it was a celebration of a dog whose story truly deserved the spotlight.
