This was a very special session to celebrate the relationship that Lorna and Hobbs have shared over the past 18 years. Lorna has Downs Syndrome, and Hobbs has been with her through almost half of her life. He must have been gorgeous in his prime, because he’s very striking even now. This old boy seems...
This gorgeous Rottweiler just turned 5, and she has Lymphoma. She wasn’t doing well on chemo, so they stopped treatment, and she’s been feeling much better. She was very excited to show me her toys when I got to her house :)
Inca is one of the best-trained dogs I’ve had the pleasure to photograph, and...
Both Tommy and Sugar are rescues from Greyhound Pets of America, and I was super excited to have them in the studio for the February Rescue of the Month! Tommy is the big brindle boy, and Sugar is his little sister. Greyhounds can be so hilarious and and strange and beautiful…. it always makes me...
I’ve had lots of breed “firsts” in the studio lately, and Kirby was the first Bulldog that’s come over. He’s everything a Bulldog should be: wrinkly, slobbery, snuffly, happy, stubborn and oh-so-adorable! Between the tongue, the underbite, the smiles and the pleading eyes, this guy wins for most expressions, hands-down. I had tons of fun...
Morrison the Shiba Inu and his little {big} brother Xerxes the Vizsla {Xerk for short} had a great time in the studio last week! I’d never shot a Shiba before, and got a good taste of their calm, yet stubborn personalities. Xerk, in good Vizsla style, was sleek, handsome and a little goofy. It was...

Remember our Collie friend, Cody? That lucky boy got a new little brother for Valentine’s Day! Both Cody and Benjamin were rescued from the Animal Humane Society {go rescues!} and I hear they’re getting along great. Benjamin is a gorgeous 12 week old German Shorthair with more spunk than any one puppy should be allowed....
My wonderful Dustin got me these tulips {one of my favorite flowers} for Valentine’s Day last week! The next morning they were opened up and the sun was shining, and I just had to get some photos. It feels good to look at these now that they’ve dried up and it’s dark outside. Just a...
Remember cute little Pixie from her Studio session a while back? We had the outdoor part our Combo session last week {after a couple of weather reschedules} and it was awesome! I’ve never seen a dog so little be SO excited about snow! She loved it. We had a gorgeous sunny day and found a...
