In collaboration with Amanda Lewis Pet Photography, Dear Dogs: Portraits & Stories is a love letter to the dogs of Northern Michigan - inspired by the joy, devotion, chaos, comfort, and everyday magic they bring to our lives. This book celebrates the soulful, the silly, and the wonderfully weird creatures we call family.

Each spread honors a dog who has made life better, reminding us how lucky we are to share our days with animals who love us unconditionally. Featuring 30 Northern Michigan dogs, this book combines vibrant, personality-driven photography with heartfelt stories that capture what makes each dog unforgettable and celebrate what it means to love and be loved by a dog.

Dear Dogs: Portraits & Stories will reach an estimated audience of over 30,000 through a combination of social media and email marketing across Amanda Lewis Photography and Little Traverse Bay Humane Society channels - including Facebook, Instagram, and dedicated email lists. Approximately 100–150 copies of the book are anticipated to be sold to Northern Michigan pet owners and gifted to family members, placing your sponsorship recognition directly in the hands of the community.

The goal for business and individual sponsorships is to raise $3,000 to cover self-publishing, printing, and book production costs. Any sponsorship funds raised beyond what is required to cover these expenses will be donated directly to Little Traverse Bay Humane Society.

All proceeds from the sale of this book benefit Little Traverse Bay Humane Society.
