Sandton SPCA 2014 calender launched

The Sandton SPCA 2014 Forever Homed calendar, photographed by fine art photographer Emma O'Brien, was officially launched on 22 October at the La vie en Rose in Illovo, Johannesburg.

The calendar features those fortunate strays adopted from the Sandton SPCA who have found their forever homes. This fundraising activity raised over R200,000 in 2013.

O'Brien has shot the calendars for the past two years and is well known for her winning approach to photographing animals and has an uncanny ability for capturing their innocence, and need for love and affection.

Corporate gifts

The proceeds from the sale of the calendars is channelled directly back to the Sandton SPCA to assist with the noble work of this non-profit organisation. This year, each calendar is priced at R120 and can be bought in bundles for organisations to give to clients as a corporate gift. Contact the Sandton SPCA at az.gro.acpsnotdnas@ofni or telephonically on +27 (0)11 444 7730 for orders.

O'Brien works as a Johannesburg-based portrait photographer, and specialises in family, maternity and newborn, corporate and documentary photography. She also runs courses on basic camera skills and portrait photography.
