Aloft Studio

Cats out of the bag! The story of our Baseballs & Tiny Paws calendar got picked up by USA TODAY! 🐾⚾️

This project started as one of those “this would be really cool if it worked” ideas… and somehow turned into something way bigger than we imagined. Tiny shelter animals. Baseball players. A full calendar built around connection, personality, and giving these animals a different kind of spotlight.

We partnered with the Hagerstown Flying Boxcars and the Humane Society of Washington County to bring it to life, and we had the best shooting day together.

The response so far has been unreal. Before the calendar has even officially launched, the videos have taken off and people all over the world are already invested in these animals and their stories. That’s the whole point.
This only happened because of the people behind it:

The Audrey Rouzer Portraits/ Aloft Studio team — our assistants Ashley Mummert, Bella Buchman, and Lindsey Smith from Threefold Branding Co. who kept everything moving, handled animals, captured BTS, and somehow kept us on schedule.

🤍 Colin Berry and the entire team at the Humane Society of Washington County

🤍 The Hagerstown Flying Boxcars organization and players who showed up fully and trusted the vision.

This project is about more than photos. It’s about visibility, second chances, and creating something people actually feel. Stay tuned for the printed calendar launching soon!

Your legacy deserves more than living behind the scenes.

Over the last few months, we’ve had the honor of photographing incredible women who each brought something entirely unique into the ICON experience, and every story has reminded us of the same thing:

There is no single way to be extraordinary.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to step into the spotlight instead of standing just outside of it… this is it.
