Vote for Laszlo

Verona Street Animal Society supports Rochester Animal Services and shelter operations through various fundraising initiatives, including their annual Roc Top Pet contest.

Our cat, Laszlo, has been the highest-voted cat for three consecutive years, and has raised $5,000 and counting for VSAS in his unofficial role as Roc Top Cat. Laszlo's campaign has grown from a few stickers to a mini media empire that includes multiple websites, campaign videos, local news appearances, and official merch. No other project has allowed me to be so creative while supporting a great cause.

Families Thrive

Families Thrive is a Rochester, NY-based nonprofit dedicated to finding safe, loving homes for children in foster care. Through foster care, adoption, and family support services across New York state, they help youth and families build lasting bonds and heal together.

I provide event photography for their yearly fundraising gala, capturing the energy of the evening and the connections happening throughout the night. My work involves photographing both candid moments and formal presentations to help tell the story of their mission and show potential supporters the real difference their contributions make in connecting children with loving families.
