BRAND PARTNERSHIPS, EVENT SPONSORS & VENDORS, AND IMAGE LICENSING

ZilkerBark! started as a community photo project, and organically grew to over 180k dog-loving followers on Instagram. We have since used our platform to host community events—almost always with a charitable fundraising aspect to them—to bring dog owners and lovers together for a cause and a good time.

We have also partnered with many local Texas businesses on events and photoshoots, whether it’s a grand opening of a store, product photography for packaging, or a holiday shopping event. We love collaborating with local businesses and finding new ways to share our skills and our dedicated audience!

Are you a business or venue who wants to attract dog owners? Or a pet-focused brand interested in a commercial shoot or event photography? We can make it happen. See details and inquire below!

Hosting or Sponsoring an Event

ZB portrait event collaborations

Throughout the year, we host dog events in the Austin area that attract thousands of people and their pups. If you’re interested in working with us as an event host or sponsor, you can find additional information about our events online here.

EVENT TYPES

MEETUPS: In the spring and fall we put on breed-specific or other themed meetups, where we offer a gathering space for like-minded dog people with pet-related vendors, a ZB dog portrait booth, speciality cocktails, and a breed-specific rescue as the beneficiary. We’re always looking for new venues around Austin to host - typically a bar with a large outdoor space and ample parking (we’ve had over 1500 attendees at our past events!).
PORTRAIT EVENTS: The possibilities are endless for a themed portrait event - from a Cinco de Mayo celebration, Halloween costume party, to a holiday shopping event at an iconic Austin store - we’ve done it all! We can make any idea a reality, whether it’s a bar-sponsored party or a corporate-sponsored exclusive event. Shoot us an inquiry with your ideas, budget and proposed dates. Fall is our most popular event season, with event dates booking up as soon as early spring.

Event Vendors

share your product or service at our events

ZilkerBark’s Dog Meetup series are a celebration of a specific breed or trait of dog, bringing the community together at a local Austin bar. Beyond breed, we’re hosting events that feature senior dogs, puppies, and fun themes like ‘dogs that could be mistaken for hotdogs.’ Unlike general dog events, these events are geared toward specific audiences and therefore each event will have a different set of attendees. By participating in multiple meetup events, it’s more than likely that vendors will be meeting a new audience each time.

During the events, we offer pet portraits, drink specials, and of course, vendors. Thanks to the layout of the event, attendees are encouraged to mingle with vendors while passing from experience to experience.

VENDOR FEE INCLUDES:

10x10 booth space to hand out promos, interact with attendees, and/or sell products
Potential interactions with up to 200-400 dogs and their owners
Promotional mentions via Instagram, Facebook, Email and Website
