One of my last sessions of 2019 included photographing this gorgeous conservation biology graduate MaryEllen Schoeman! MaryEllen has dedicated her life to animals, from rehabilitateling orphaned raccoons to educating the public on these wonderful creatures, and she wanted to include all of her furry friends in this momentous photo session. The 'coons and tortoise are her own, while the eagle owl and fox are courtesy of her very good friend Benay Karp of Benay's Bird & Animal Training Source/Rentals
