Ammo has recently been noticed by the Animal Planet due to some very entertaining videos of him that were posted to youtube.

We're in the works to possibly having Ammo appear on one of the Animal Planet's shows, Dogs 101.

Hopefully things will work out, but in the meantime you can visit this rising star, and his pal Trooper at Studio 3.

If you would like to see the video that got Ammo noticed, you can click here.

What to Frame


framed dachshund ad
Sometimes deciding what to frame can be just as hard as deciding how to frame it. So in order to give your framing imagination a boost, I have decided to share a few personal framed items that I have hanging in my own living space.

Choosing what to frame has a lot to do with personal style and taste. Do you prefer to be surrounded by photos and memorabilia of family or rich paintings worthy of gallery hanging, or perhaps a mixture of both? I personally like to have a mixture of family photos, fine art that I have fallen in love with, and even antique prints and collectibles.

So perhaps this sampling of my own framed objects will help spark your imagination. You may have the perfect thing for framing lying around your own home! And don't forget that at Studio 3 we are experts in helping you find the perfect frame for your art, not matter what your style.

Photobooths
A series by Kyley DiLuigi

photobooth animals
 As the owner of Studio 3 and a long-time lover of all things artistic I would like to admit that for most of my life I have had a love - borderline obsession - of photobooths. Something about those 4 tiny photos is just so charming. With no photographer to muster a reaction from its subjects you are left to create a "pose" on your own. In esssence I feel like a photobooth can capture the "true" you like no photographer could.

Back in 2005 I began working on a series while I was studying fine art and photography at Kutztown University. What started off as simply amuzement for myself turned into a full fledged project which I titled "Photobooth Animal Kingdom Collection". In this artistic series I created my own Photobooth strips in which I inserted animal portraits that I had photographed myself. My photobooth series was so well percieved that I ended up entering it into the Adobe Design Achievement Awards, which much to my surprise my series was accepted as a finalist. In 2006 it was showcased in the Royal Ontario Museum in Canada. My series went on to be displayed in many other venues and is now available for purchase in Studio 3.

This year I decided to continue on with my photobooth work and start a new series of prints. So I would like to present the release of "Dachshund Collection", which features my very own Dachshund, Ammo. Who I might add is a very prominent fixture at Studio 3 as our very popular shop dog, along with his pal, Trooper. Ammo has such a strong personality (as most small dogs seem to have) that I thought he would be the perfect subject for a photobooth collection. As you can see with these prints he gave me some great shots to work with!

You may purchase any of these prints at Studio 3 or online through our etsy shop.
