Photographing a Gala Picnic and Fundraiser Event in Centennial Park.

Unique Event Photography had the pleasure of photographing the Pets In The Park Gala Picnic and Fundraiser Event in Centennial Park in December 2015. Pets In The Park (PITP) is a group of volunteer Vets and Vent nurses who help the homeless care for their companion animals through free monthly clinics (there's one that happens in the church grounds of St Johns Darlinghurst). It was great to be able to document this special day that was organised as a big thank-you to the the teams of veterinary workers, sponsors and everyone who lends a hand. For the official opening ceremony Alex Greenwich MP opened the picnic, and Councillor Jenny Green from the City of Sydney officially launched the Pilot Outreach Program (and the new van!). This event was also a fundraiser, if you would like to help out you can donate here,  www.petsinthepark.org.au/donations/

    A good day indeed and a lovely time to say thank you to the volunteers for all they have contributed. It was nice for me to relax without a camera in hand for a change knowing you had it covered. Happy you could join us in the fun and games. Great coverage Kent.... many thanks.
