Ridgewood NJ, dogs love us unconditionally, but how well do our local communities reciprocate that devotion to our BFFs (Best Furry Friends)?

To mark National Dog Day on Aug. 26, LawnStarter sniffed out 2022’s Best Cities for Dog Lovers.

LawnStarter  measured the puppy love in nearly 175 of the biggest U.S. cities based on 24 key indicators of dog-friendliness, such as housing, services, and care. We also looked at pawlicy favorability, access to pup-welcoming businesses, and affordability.

Check out the 10 leaders of the pack (and the 10 runts of the litter) below, followed by some highlights and lowlights from their report. (Click here to see where your city ranks and for surprising findings.)

“I can not press enough how powerful images have on your online experience.  When people are searching for a companion online, the images are the first thing they based their decision on.  Your images should be up to date and showcase your personality and interest.  It’s important to express positive energy throughout your session.  No one wants to be around someone who is unhappy or to serious all the time.  And no one wants to meet someone who looks nothing like their profile.  Save yourself the headache and others and let’s be present.  Maybe you love that image of yourself from 10 years ago, but trust me today you have more to offer.   We are always changing and getting older.  Embrace and celebrate who you are today because that is who you are now.

Portraits for Business and Personal

In the world of business, it is important to have an approachable and professional image that makes it clear what you represent. We have many different options to help you better yourself and your career by putting the best possible image forward.

A simple headshot might seem like something anybody could do, but there are a lot of nuances that people don’t think about. What kind of lighting do you want? What should be in the background? Do you want to present yourself in formal attire or in something more casual? Should the image show you working or just smiling at the camera? These are all questions that a skilled photographer can answer, and  be able to put you in just the right position to get the perfect shot.

If you have a business to promote, a good headshot can give your company a personal touch by giving customers a chance to identify with the person you choose to be the face of your business. If you are searching for a job, you can use a commercial picture to draw more attention to your application, and give potential employers an idea of whom they will be hiring. In any of these scenarios, having a commercial photographer on hand will help you make these decisions and properly promote yourself. You will be able to set just the right tone for anything you want to do.

Portraits for Business and Lifestyle

In today’s modern age with all the social media:  facebook, linkedin, twitter, Instagram and so on its critical that we showcase ourselves as we wish the world to see us.  People tap into your life through these social media websites and peer into your world.  I offer Business and Lifestyle photo sessions to showcase the way you want to be viewed.  Its a natural photojournalist approach that has a modern contemporary feel to it.  No one wants to see overly posed photographs that appear to pretentious, but rather natural and artistic photographs.  Images say it all.  If you are running your own business, looking for employment, getting back into the dating scene, or simply longing for images of you with your loved ones for memory keepsakes this is perfect solution.
