    Description

    Cat Photographers

    Chicago Cat Rescue seeks skilled photographers to take photos of our cats and kittens. CCR photographers needn't be professional photographers, but experience with photographing cats is important to help catch the essence of our beautiful felines, and to help them find their forever homes. CCR is a foster based organization, which means that our cats and kittens are housed in private foster homes. Our photographers are responsible for scheduling photo shoots with our foster parents in our foster parents' homes. All our foster families reside in Chicago. Foster home boundaries are: Roosevelt Rd./South Loop to the south, Howard St. to the north, and Pulaski Rd. to the west. Photos are then posted online, for use by other volunteers. The sooner we have beautiful pictures of our cats, the sooner we can help our cats find loving homes!

    Thank you for your interest in photographing our beautiful cats and kittens, to help them find their forever homes. After we receive your email, we will reach out to schedule a phone call with you. Please include some examples of your photography of cats, along with your email! Again, volunteer photographers don't have to be professional photographers, but it's important that you have some experience with taking pictures of cats.
