WEBVTT NOTE This file was generated by Descript 00:00:00.789 --> 00:00:06.320 Welcome to the Soul Touched by Dogs Podcast, the show for dog lovers who 00:00:06.340 --> 00:00:12.000 see dogs not as toys or tools, but wise souls worth our respect and care. 00:00:12.580 --> 00:00:14.559 I'm an Herrmann, and I'm your host. 00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:20.560 I talk to poor some humans, people who do great work for dogs and their people. 00:00:21.099 --> 00:00:23.360 So come and join us for today's conversation. 00:00:25.974 --> 00:00:27.334 Anke: Hello and welcome, Mindy. 00:00:27.384 --> 00:00:31.454 I'm super excited to record this episode with you. 00:00:32.704 --> 00:00:35.744 Mindy: Thank you so much for inviting me to be on your podcast. 00:00:35.744 --> 00:00:36.274 I'm thrilled. 00:00:37.394 --> 00:00:43.724 Anke: And I'm super excited because you have a very interesting and very 00:00:43.724 --> 00:00:46.454 particular angle to come at this topic. 00:00:46.454 --> 00:00:50.104 So, but I don't want to kind of take, take away any of the, of the thunder. 00:00:50.174 --> 00:00:53.054 So why don't you just start out like, let people know where 00:00:53.054 --> 00:00:54.514 in this lovely world you are. 00:00:54.814 --> 00:00:56.724 And so what's your business, dogs? 00:00:58.224 --> 00:01:02.004 Mindy: Actually, I just moved a week ago, and I'm right now in Martha's Vineyard. 00:01:02.524 --> 00:01:05.874 And, um, so for, in Massachusetts. 00:01:06.244 --> 00:01:09.814 And, um, my business is Dogs I Meet. 00:01:10.169 --> 00:01:15.959 And essentially I am a dog photographer and um, I love dogs. 00:01:16.039 --> 00:01:17.099 I love photography. 00:01:17.149 --> 00:01:19.959 And I thought, Hey, I'm going to make a business. 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:27.889 And ultimately what was important to me was to be doing something that I 00:01:27.889 --> 00:01:33.399 felt, um, was, was benefiting dogs and, and the people that love them. 00:01:33.819 --> 00:01:36.919 Um, so from a perspective of just. 00:01:37.269 --> 00:01:42.559 People who, who have dogs, photographing them, um, is something special 00:01:42.559 --> 00:01:44.279 because people don't think about it. 00:01:44.289 --> 00:01:48.729 They don't think about having professional photos or, or pictures of their dog. 00:01:48.769 --> 00:01:51.799 And, um, I speak from experience. 00:01:51.889 --> 00:01:54.289 Um, it's something you will never be sorry. 00:01:55.349 --> 00:02:00.469 Having photos that do justice to your dog and show their spirit. 00:02:00.499 --> 00:02:01.009 You okay? 00:02:03.769 --> 00:02:06.539 And show their spirit and their, and their light. 00:02:06.919 --> 00:02:10.089 Um, or something that is really priceless. 00:02:10.499 --> 00:02:20.569 Um, and also, For dogs that need homes, photography is so important, um, because, 00:02:20.589 --> 00:02:27.469 um, people need to see dogs for what they are, um, and be able to see a dog 00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:29.309 that they can envision in their home. 00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:35.389 So a good photograph of a dog looking for a home is really important. 00:02:35.419 --> 00:02:38.689 It could be the difference between them getting adopted or not. 00:02:39.229 --> 00:02:46.494 Um, Organizations doing great work without photos people don't know or 00:02:46.494 --> 00:02:49.774 situations that happen in in other places. 00:02:49.794 --> 00:02:54.814 Um, I had an opportunity to go to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria 00:02:54.954 --> 00:02:56.574 to document what was happening. 00:02:56.964 --> 00:03:03.594 Um, you know, you hear about it, but seeing it So I, um, have found 00:03:03.594 --> 00:03:10.364 a way to bridge dog advocacy with brand marketing, as well as, uh, 00:03:10.394 --> 00:03:13.334 photography, you know, for advocacy. 00:03:13.764 --> 00:03:18.774 Um, and, um, I do my best to, to, to do good with my photos. 00:03:18.824 --> 00:03:19.014 I 00:03:19.584 --> 00:03:19.784 Anke: love that. 00:03:20.024 --> 00:03:20.564 I love that. 00:03:20.564 --> 00:03:25.189 And I think the thing is, It's not easy to get a good shot of your dog. 00:03:25.229 --> 00:03:26.119 You don't know what you're doing. 00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:26.629 I've tried. 00:03:30.869 --> 00:03:31.469 Mindy: It's true. 00:03:31.499 --> 00:03:37.409 It is a specific, you know, um, specific niche in photography. 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:41.519 Um, and the, the, the real key is patience. 00:03:42.239 --> 00:03:44.999 Um, I work on the dog schedule. 00:03:45.559 --> 00:03:48.689 Um, I work around a dog's personality. 00:03:49.099 --> 00:03:54.139 And, um, if you think about it from a dog's perspective, so number one, 00:03:54.149 --> 00:03:58.199 if you want to take a good picture, you want to get down low and you 00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:00.109 want to be on the dog's level. 00:04:00.149 --> 00:04:05.459 We, uh, we often call it owner's angle because people take pictures from 00:04:05.459 --> 00:04:07.659 above of their dog on the ground. 00:04:07.679 --> 00:04:09.179 Well, that's not on the dog's. 00:04:10.224 --> 00:04:11.534 That's not their perspective. 00:04:11.894 --> 00:04:15.414 So the pictures that you're really drawn to, if you think about it, 00:04:15.424 --> 00:04:18.874 they're at eye level with the dog. 00:04:19.304 --> 00:04:22.784 So just a few pointers and patience. 00:04:23.124 --> 00:04:25.894 You know, people are just like, I'm ready to take a photo. 00:04:25.894 --> 00:04:28.904 It's the same thing with your kids and dogs are like. 00:04:29.064 --> 00:04:29.934 I don't think so. 00:04:31.694 --> 00:04:35.004 So, you know, you need to engage them, you need to motivate them, 00:04:35.384 --> 00:04:41.144 um, and you just really need to kind of go on their, their time frame. 00:04:41.644 --> 00:04:43.024 Um, so that's not so 00:04:43.024 --> 00:04:44.114 Anke: true for everything, right? 00:04:47.384 --> 00:04:48.184 Mindy: Exactly. 00:04:48.214 --> 00:04:54.159 You know, and, and especially like When I have a big camera, the dog is just seeing 00:04:54.159 --> 00:04:56.409 not my face, they're seeing the camera. 00:04:57.039 --> 00:04:58.109 That's scary. 00:04:58.649 --> 00:05:04.109 So I, before, generally before I will start photographing, I'll spend time, 00:05:04.179 --> 00:05:06.529 I don't ever pick up the camera. 00:05:06.914 --> 00:05:07.714 right away. 00:05:08.074 --> 00:05:10.494 I want them to get a sense of they're safe. 00:05:10.664 --> 00:05:12.104 It's, it's, it's okay. 00:05:12.454 --> 00:05:15.834 Um, and a lot of times I'll just keep the camera at my side and 00:05:15.834 --> 00:05:17.524 click it and give them a treat. 00:05:18.104 --> 00:05:20.214 So they get a connection. 00:05:20.214 --> 00:05:21.769 You use it as a clicker, right? 00:05:21.769 --> 00:05:22.974 Right, exactly. 00:05:23.014 --> 00:05:24.404 To, to, this is fun. 00:05:24.794 --> 00:05:27.464 Um, you know, and I mean, it, it, it, it varies. 00:05:27.464 --> 00:05:30.394 It depends on the type of photo shoot that I'm doing. 00:05:31.164 --> 00:05:34.854 Um, you know, if I'm doing more of a documentary, you know, I don't. 00:05:35.694 --> 00:05:41.194 I'm taking pictures in the moment, um, but again, I still, you know, I usually 00:05:41.194 --> 00:05:43.404 will maintain some kind of eye contact. 00:05:43.704 --> 00:05:48.124 Um, I'll tend to use a longer lens so I can keep a little bit more 00:05:48.124 --> 00:05:51.344 distance and I'm not in the dog's face. 00:05:51.629 --> 00:05:52.689 When I'm doing that. 00:05:53.049 --> 00:05:57.659 So, you know, assess the situation and, and go with it from there. 00:05:58.109 --> 00:06:03.749 Um, but to me, I just, you know, when you can see the spirit of 00:06:03.749 --> 00:06:08.219 the dog in those photos and, and capture it, it's just priceless. 00:06:08.809 --> 00:06:09.799 Anke: That is beautiful. 00:06:09.889 --> 00:06:12.079 And to use it to tell a story, right? 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:16.599 Because it's not just that particular moment, especially when you say you go, 00:06:16.799 --> 00:06:20.049 you know, you go into these shelters and you go into these different spaces. 00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:25.469 Then, or, you know, like, or the, the, the veterinary, like the hospital, and 00:06:25.469 --> 00:06:28.039 it's like, that's telling a whole story. 00:06:29.059 --> 00:06:29.829 Mindy: Exactly. 00:06:29.849 --> 00:06:35.569 The tagline, and I, I am obsessed with storytelling, um, so it's a big part, you 00:06:35.569 --> 00:06:37.619 know, I, I don't consider it just a photo. 00:06:38.204 --> 00:06:43.904 I consider an opportunity to tell a story or at least with photos, 00:06:43.904 --> 00:06:47.054 what's interesting is you get to pick the story in your mind. 00:06:47.154 --> 00:06:52.594 So you lead them to a place and then people see a photograph and it's, 00:06:53.094 --> 00:06:56.374 you know, they finish the story. 00:06:56.774 --> 00:06:58.504 in their, in their minds. 00:06:58.804 --> 00:07:02.394 Um, but the tagline of my business is because every dog has a tail. 00:07:02.474 --> 00:07:04.524 T A L A. 00:07:04.804 --> 00:07:07.254 And I believe dogs have many, many tails. 00:07:07.594 --> 00:07:12.344 Um, and they have their stories, they have the stories that they bring to us. 00:07:12.754 --> 00:07:14.984 Um, just so many. 00:07:15.414 --> 00:07:16.014 different things. 00:07:16.014 --> 00:07:21.054 I recently did a project, um, for an organization called Paws for Patrick, 00:07:21.074 --> 00:07:25.524 which is a wonderful organization that helps young people, um, with, 00:07:25.554 --> 00:07:27.594 um, some mental health problems. 00:07:28.024 --> 00:07:32.224 And they help them get ESA, emotional support animals, whether 00:07:32.224 --> 00:07:36.414 it's a dog or a cat, and they sort of help them through the process. 00:07:36.724 --> 00:07:43.684 And, um, Having these dogs or cats for the young people is a real lifeline. 00:07:44.034 --> 00:07:47.144 Um, and I photographed one of their, their clients, which was a 00:07:47.144 --> 00:07:49.404 young woman who had adopted a cat. 00:07:49.804 --> 00:07:57.844 Um, and, um, the cat itself had, uh, it's a common known, it's a disorder 00:07:57.904 --> 00:08:05.169 amongst, cats, but she loved that, that the cat also, you know, had, 00:08:05.409 --> 00:08:09.849 had a problem and that she could help the cat, um, with that problem. 00:08:10.339 --> 00:08:15.529 And it's just brought so much, she's just a great, Like so much calmer 00:08:15.529 --> 00:08:18.659 and she loves the cat and I wish I should show you a picture of it. 00:08:18.659 --> 00:08:20.099 I'll send it to you. 00:08:20.409 --> 00:08:25.539 But I was able to photograph them and capture that bond along with the 00:08:25.539 --> 00:08:31.239 whole story of, of the relationship and of the organization that 00:08:31.269 --> 00:08:34.264 facilitated, you know, coming about. 00:08:34.514 --> 00:08:36.894 And that was all, you know, through the lens of my camera. 00:08:36.894 --> 00:08:38.944 It's 00:08:38.944 --> 00:08:41.774 Anke: really one of those, you know, where, where you, where you think 00:08:41.864 --> 00:08:45.834 of this, uh, you know, the picture, you know, is a thousand words or 00:08:45.914 --> 00:08:49.614 like, I think that really just pops to mind because it illustrates or 00:08:49.704 --> 00:08:52.164 it's that it gives that story that. 00:08:53.234 --> 00:08:57.324 So what, what would you say was your favorite project or, you know, 00:08:57.324 --> 00:09:01.374 where you think like, what was the most heartwarming, uh, client or 00:09:01.374 --> 00:09:03.064 story you've ever, you've ever done? 00:09:04.884 --> 00:09:07.604 Mindy: There's been so many, there really has. 00:09:07.994 --> 00:09:11.584 There is one, well, there's more than one, but that, that 00:09:11.594 --> 00:09:14.164 stands out in, in, in my mind. 00:09:14.514 --> 00:09:21.824 Um, one was a woman that hired me to, uh, as a, to photograph her and her 00:09:21.824 --> 00:09:25.924 husband's dog was really her husband's dog and she knew that the dog didn't 00:09:25.964 --> 00:09:29.814 have long and that she didn't think he was going to do well the husband was 00:09:29.814 --> 00:09:33.794 going to do well when the dog passed so she wanted me to photograph for the dog 00:09:33.824 --> 00:09:38.594 and uh it was December and we actually the dog's favorite place was the beach 00:09:38.604 --> 00:09:44.214 Massachusetts so it was cold but it was like the stars aligned that day and it 00:09:44.214 --> 00:09:53.174 was a beautiful spring like day and um the dog You know, kind of like perked up 00:09:53.284 --> 00:09:55.974 and I, I got these magnificent photos. 00:09:55.974 --> 00:09:59.554 Like you could just see the love, um, between the family 00:09:59.554 --> 00:10:01.194 and them carrying the dog. 00:10:01.204 --> 00:10:07.644 And, and I did the best I could to make sure that, um, the dog, I, I 00:10:07.694 --> 00:10:11.894 honored the dog and made him look as. 00:10:12.109 --> 00:10:15.809 strong and healthy, uh, you know, as possible. 00:10:16.129 --> 00:10:20.759 And, um, the dog passed away a couple of days after that photo shoot. 00:10:21.219 --> 00:10:27.389 Um, and the people were just so grateful, um, you know, for, for the photos. 00:10:27.389 --> 00:10:32.279 And, um, so that one in particular stays in my mind. 00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:38.129 And honestly, so many, I went to a neuter clinic once and, um, in 00:10:38.139 --> 00:10:45.289 Mexico and They, they neutered like 1, 500 dogs over five days. 00:10:45.569 --> 00:10:48.239 And there was one dog that wandered in. 00:10:48.269 --> 00:10:49.799 It didn't have an owner. 00:10:49.839 --> 00:10:54.759 It just, I guess it smelled the food and saw the people and the veterinarians 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.469 realized the dog needed to be neutered. 00:10:56.479 --> 00:11:00.729 So the poor dog wandered in for a snack and wound up getting neutered. 00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:04.119 But it came back every day. 00:11:04.174 --> 00:11:08.344 to the, and hung out at the clinic. 00:11:08.834 --> 00:11:11.844 And I don't know, there was just something about that dog. 00:11:11.894 --> 00:11:16.484 It was just like such a connection that, that I had with the dog. 00:11:16.534 --> 00:11:21.544 And then it was crazy because, um, one of the days I wasn't at 00:11:21.554 --> 00:11:24.884 the clinic at the time, I was in town that wasn't even close to it. 00:11:25.414 --> 00:11:26.644 And I saw the dog. 00:11:27.314 --> 00:11:31.234 And I was just like, I actually ran in and tried to buy food and feed 00:11:31.234 --> 00:11:33.674 the dog, but the dog stayed with me. 00:11:33.694 --> 00:11:38.184 And that dog has honestly been my inspiration, um, to 00:11:38.184 --> 00:11:39.734 work with spay neuter clinics. 00:11:39.754 --> 00:11:43.734 And I have gone on working with nonprofits and so forth to raise 00:11:44.254 --> 00:11:45.924 probably tens of thousands of dollars. 00:11:46.254 --> 00:11:48.154 And it was that dog. 00:11:48.154 --> 00:11:50.116 Wow. 00:11:50.116 --> 00:11:54.041 Anke: That's incredible. 00:11:54.041 --> 00:11:57.014 That's incredible. 00:11:57.374 --> 00:12:01.964 And so, so tell me a little bit about these adoption photos, because I 00:12:02.044 --> 00:12:05.089 don't know, like that's, Like I've seen it makes such a difference. 00:12:05.089 --> 00:12:07.999 Like there is an Instagram account that I sometimes come across 00:12:08.009 --> 00:12:10.229 where they kind of taste this. 00:12:10.249 --> 00:12:13.329 They often have these before and after pictures, you know, like 00:12:13.329 --> 00:12:17.379 this was the intake photo and you see some scared creature in some 00:12:17.499 --> 00:12:20.839 cage, you know, some ugly cage. 00:12:21.069 --> 00:12:24.139 And then you see this little goofball like, you know, when they have this 00:12:24.544 --> 00:12:28.444 Professional photoshoot and it's like it makes, I mean, are there any, 00:12:28.834 --> 00:12:33.064 uh, numbers or, I mean, I don't know if we even need numbers to say like 00:12:33.064 --> 00:12:36.824 how much more likely it is for a dog to get adopted with a decent photo. 00:12:37.444 --> 00:12:40.094 Mindy: It's, it's, it's huge. 00:12:40.154 --> 00:12:42.544 It literally is the difference between life and death. 00:12:43.014 --> 00:12:48.294 A photo like that, um, I, I use the example of not everybody has the 00:12:48.334 --> 00:12:55.204 ability to, to, to visualize, um, you know, a dog that's sad and scared is 00:12:55.204 --> 00:12:58.414 gonna be that same dog that they're gonna love more than anything. 00:12:58.804 --> 00:13:03.044 Um, just like if you walk into a house, some people can say, oh yeah, I 00:13:03.044 --> 00:13:05.074 know, I can do this and I can do that. 00:13:05.074 --> 00:13:05.784 And they see it. 00:13:05.804 --> 00:13:07.184 And other people just say. 00:13:07.789 --> 00:13:09.769 That they just see what they see. 00:13:10.509 --> 00:13:14.579 Um, so that's why it's so, so important. 00:13:14.909 --> 00:13:19.139 These photos make all the difference to these dogs. 00:13:19.539 --> 00:13:28.129 Um, and what one example, um, I recently did a photo shoot, um, for, um, a hotel in 00:13:28.129 --> 00:13:34.499 New York and I used as my dog models, um, two, uh, different dogs that needed to be. 00:13:35.089 --> 00:13:39.439 had been in the adoption system, so to speak, for six, seven months. 00:13:39.469 --> 00:13:45.819 One of the dogs, um, was, was a senior dog and the rescue was doing great work. 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:49.649 It was being fostered, trying to get the dog adopted, and it was the sweetest 00:13:49.649 --> 00:13:55.969 dog with a wonderful personality, but it just wasn't getting And I took photos 00:13:55.989 --> 00:14:02.129 of it, um, you know, in a dog friendly hotel and it was, they, they were, you 00:14:02.129 --> 00:14:07.879 know, funny, sweet and, and you can really kind of see the dog's personality. 00:14:08.549 --> 00:14:11.699 And the dog still didn't get adopted right afterwards. 00:14:12.059 --> 00:14:14.949 Um, but there's an organization called Susie Seniors. 00:14:15.119 --> 00:14:16.469 I don't know if you know about them. 00:14:16.469 --> 00:14:20.179 Um, they also do wonderful work and they feature dogs that. 00:14:20.629 --> 00:14:23.769 need to find a home and are senior dogs. 00:14:24.139 --> 00:14:28.479 Um, so the rescue reached out to Susie Senior and asked them, 00:14:28.859 --> 00:14:32.269 actually that was where I found the dog, was on Susie Seniors. 00:14:32.629 --> 00:14:36.309 So they reached out to them again and asked them to please, you 00:14:36.309 --> 00:14:41.449 know, do another, um, feature of the dog, and they used my photos. 00:14:41.839 --> 00:14:46.439 Um, and the story was, was that the dog, Huck was his name, didn't get 00:14:46.439 --> 00:14:51.479 adopted the first time around, but a photographer saw it and used the dog 00:14:51.539 --> 00:14:54.039 in the, you know, for this photo shoot. 00:14:54.499 --> 00:14:59.689 And the dog got adopted, and someone said, I saw that photo, and it spoke to 00:14:59.689 --> 00:15:02.729 me, and I knew that that dog was for me. 00:15:03.119 --> 00:15:09.079 And I, Recently, uh, the rescue sent me a whole batch of photos and 00:15:09.079 --> 00:15:10.819 just said, can't thank you enough. 00:15:11.334 --> 00:15:15.584 You know, um, and I was just like, oh, that's what it's 00:15:15.584 --> 00:15:16.214 Anke: all about. 00:15:16.214 --> 00:15:21.044 Isn't that like, it's that that piece is like, oh, and it is like that, you know, 00:15:21.044 --> 00:15:25.294 once sometimes like you see it, look at a photo and it just speaks to you. 00:15:25.774 --> 00:15:26.474 And that's, yeah. 00:15:26.524 --> 00:15:27.974 Oh, that's, that's so beautiful. 00:15:28.274 --> 00:15:30.449 And it's funny that you kind of like this. 00:15:30.719 --> 00:15:34.649 When people walk into a house, I experienced that with the dress making. 00:15:35.029 --> 00:15:38.689 You know, some people would go and, and see a roll of fabric, 00:15:38.689 --> 00:15:40.459 like, you know, obviously like me. 00:15:40.464 --> 00:15:40.699 Yeah. 00:15:40.699 --> 00:15:44.149 But sometimes clients as well, they see a roll of fabric 00:15:44.149 --> 00:15:45.999 and we'd go like, oh my God. 00:15:45.999 --> 00:15:48.609 Because in, in your mind, you already see the dress and all 00:15:48.609 --> 00:15:49.779 the things you can do with it. 00:15:49.989 --> 00:15:53.089 Most people Oh, okay. 00:15:53.329 --> 00:15:56.689 Until they see the thing almost finished, they cannot picture it. 00:15:56.749 --> 00:15:57.534 And it's the same thing. 00:15:58.344 --> 00:15:58.794 Right. 00:15:59.014 --> 00:16:03.834 Mindy: So the power of photography is just a very, very powerful, um, 00:16:03.884 --> 00:16:08.804 medium and, and more so, I mean, I, I know, and, and video is wonderful. 00:16:08.854 --> 00:16:11.284 Um, video is sort of the rage. 00:16:11.849 --> 00:16:16.389 Now, more so than stills, but there is something about a still 00:16:16.389 --> 00:16:21.069 photograph that just draws you in and, and, and speaks to you. 00:16:21.509 --> 00:16:21.799 Yeah. 00:16:21.799 --> 00:16:21.929 I 00:16:21.939 --> 00:16:24.929 Anke: think that I don't think photos and videos really compete. 00:16:24.949 --> 00:16:26.249 It's just a different medium. 00:16:27.149 --> 00:16:29.609 True, true. 00:16:30.689 --> 00:16:31.049 There's nothing 00:16:31.049 --> 00:16:33.949 Mindy: just like that one moment captured, you know. 00:16:34.599 --> 00:16:35.679 Yeah, it does it. 00:16:35.869 --> 00:16:36.879 That's the thing about it. 00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:44.299 It's a, it's a moment in time that gets frozen and even children, if you sometimes 00:16:44.349 --> 00:16:46.859 children have their early memories. 00:16:47.369 --> 00:16:48.129 It's not them. 00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:49.269 They don't have a memory. 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:50.289 It's the photo. 00:16:50.744 --> 00:16:54.344 That they've seen as they got older becomes their memory. 00:16:54.954 --> 00:16:57.444 Um, you know, so it's, it's really interesting 00:16:57.879 --> 00:16:58.169 Anke: Yeah. 00:16:58.319 --> 00:16:59.964 That, that, yeah, totally. 00:17:00.054 --> 00:17:00.564 Totally. 00:17:00.974 --> 00:17:04.094 So where can people go and find
