CMPG April General Meeting: Julie Gould, "Zoo Photography"

Join us for our next General Meeting, Wednesday, April 1st, at 7:00 pm.  This will be an ONLINE meeting.  If you'd like to hang with fellow members, you can watch the ZOOM from Miller's Grant. 

Julie Gould will be sharing her expertise on "Zoo Photography". 

Julie Gould grew up with dogs and taking photographs around the world with her family. She was photo editor of her college newspaper and majored in Communications with a specialty in photography. With a master’s degree in urban planning, she pursued a 30-year career in housing and community development finance.

In her encore career, she started Bright Eyes Photos in 2015, a growing pet and their families’ photography business serving the metro DC region, to pursue her twin passions of dogs and photography! Her style is based on a documentary, journalistic viewpoint. She has been on several safaris in West and South Africa.

On assignment for the Petco Foundation, her images of Molly, a 3-legged pit bull rescued by an Amtrak police officer who adopted her, were the centerpiece of Petco’s “Be a Lifesaver” national campaign in the summer of 2017. She is a volunteer at a local animal shelter, the Animal Welfare League of Arlington (AWLA), as well as other non-profit animal rescue and training groups like Homeward Trails, Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and Vets Moving Forward.

She is a member of the Professional Photographers of America and has taken extensive training since 2015.

When she is not working with animals, she enjoys hiking the National Parks around the U.S. and iconic hikes around world.
