Princess Mia Turns 2!

Happy Birthday, Princess Mia!

December 21st is a special day at Sheila Broderick Photography as we celebrate our beloved Miss Mia’s second birthday! Our sweet little princess has been bringing joy, laughter, and endless cuddles to our lives since the day she arrived.

Mia isn’t just our family dog; she’s the heart and soul of our studio. Whether she’s curling up in her favorite sunny spot by the window or gently greeting clients with her wagging tail, Mia has a way of making everyone feel welcome.

To celebrate her big day, we treated her to a mini photoshoot (of course!) complete with her favorite toys and a pumpkin peanut butter cake. Her charm shines just as brightly in front of the camera as it does in real life.

Happy Birthday, Miss Mia! Here’s to many more years of tail wags, belly rubs, and paw-some memories.

How are you celebrating your furry friends this season? Share your stories and let us capture their magic too!

Save a Pittie: Colorado’s Shelters Are Full of Love Waiting to Be Adopted

As a photographer, I often capture the beauty of the world through my lens, but today, I want to shine that spotlight on a subject close to my heart: the lovable, misunderstood Pitbulls waiting for homes in Colorado shelters.

Right now, shelters and rescues across Colorado are filled with hundreds of Pitbulls, affectionately known as “bullies.” These dogs are as diverse as they are loving, each with their own unique personality, but they share one thing in common: a desire for a forever family.

Many of these dogs end up in shelters not because of their behavior but due to misconceptions about the breed or the challenges of breed-specific housing restrictions. Yet, anyone who has spent time with a Pittie knows they’re loyal, intelligent, and make wonderful companions.

Where to Start

If you’re in Colorado and thinking about adopting, here are a few organizations to explore:

    •    MaxFund Animal Adoption Center

    •    Denver Animal Shelter

    •    Underdogs Rescue

    •    OutPaws Animal Rescue

    •    Denver Dumb Friends League

    •    Colorado Bullies & More Rescue

    •    Obe’s Angels Rescue

    •    Colorado Pit Bull Rescue

    •    Mile High Canine Rescue

These groups work tirelessly to match potential adopters with their perfect canine companion.

How You Can Help

Even if you’re not in a position to adopt, you can still make a difference:

    1.    Foster: Provide a temporary home and help a dog transition out of a shelter environment.

    2.    Donate: Every dollar helps with food, medical care, and shelter improvements.

    3.    Volunteer: Walk a dog, help with events, or spread the word.

    4.    Share on Social Media: A simple share could connect a dog with their future family.

Adopting a Pitbull isn’t just about saving a life—it’s about opening your heart to a companion who will love you unconditionally. Next time you’re ready to add a new member to your family, remember the countless bullies waiting to show you just how amazing they are.

Raising Awareness for World AIDS Day 2024:Celebrating 11 Years with Red Ball

December 1st marks World AIDS Day, a vital time to reflect on the ongoing fight against HIV/AIDS, honor those we’ve lost, and support the global effort toward education, prevention, and treatment. Here in Colorado, the day is also a celebration of community, creativity, and compassion through the annual Red Ball, hosted by the Colorado Health Network.

Red Ball is more than a fashion show—it’s a dynamic blend of art, advocacy, and action. This runway extravaganza spotlights the talents of local designers, models, and performers while raising crucial funds to support individuals affected by HIV/AIDS. Every stitch, step, and spotlight contributes to a brighter future for those impacted by this global epidemic.

Sheila Broderick Photography, we’ve had the honor of being part of this incredible event since 2013. Each year, we photograph the stunning runway collections and capture attendees as they step into the spotlight on the iconic step-and-repeat. Red Ball is not just an event for us; it’s a tradition, a mission, and a celebration of resilience and creativity in our community.

Why World AIDS Day and Red Ball Matter

Despite advances in HIV treatment and prevention, the fight is far from over. World AIDS Day reminds us of the work still to be done:

    •    Globally, over 38 million people are living with HIV/AIDS.

    •    Stigma and misinformation remain significant barriers to care.

    •    Events like Red Ball provide critical resources and amplify voices for change.

By supporting the Red Ball, you contribute directly to the Colorado Health Network’s efforts, ensuring access to life-saving care, prevention programs, and advocacy.

Join Us in 2025, we will see you there!

Below are some highlights of the Red Ball 2024 event.

Celebrate creativity and community at Red Ball. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or new to the event, your presence makes a difference. And as we capture this year’s memorable moments, we’re reminded of the power of art and fashion to inspire change and foster connection.

In the coming year, let’s make 2025 a year of progress, compassion, and awareness. Together, we can continue to support the fight against HIV/AIDS while celebrating the incredible spirit of our community.
