Donna Ackland
Coss has a lifetime of experience working with animals. She has exhibited
horses, dogs and cats professionally and has been an all breed judge.
This is an extinct advantage because knowledge of the breed standards
results in a photograph that emphasizes the animal's best breed features.
Donna was the
owner of Hillside Studio for 22 years.
Her daughter, Jody, has taken up
the reins, and has moved the Studio to a new 4000 sq. ft. facility located
on the farm. This offers Donna an opportunity to devote her time to the
animal photography she is well known for creating. A majority of the photos
displayed on this web site are samples of her work.
Many of Ms.
Coss photographs have received national awards for their excellence. Two
have been selected into the Professional Photographers of America permanent
loan collection.
During the
past few years, Donna, has been creating portraits for books, calendars,
magazine articles, including cover photos. The AKC Gazette uses her photos
on a regular basis.
2003 was the
inauguration year for the Giclee Art Prints being created from new commissions
and also from files from past years. These prints are available for purchase.
An original Giclee print may also be made from your own portrait session.
Many well known
show dogs have journeyed to Donna's studio for that "perfect" photograph
and many of these have earned the reputation of being, "the best photograph
of that breed ever!"
A limited number
of location assignments will be accepted. Please call
for an appointment. (863-774-5665). coss.pets@yahoo.com
