If you have followed me for any length of time, you know that I LOVE DOGS!  So, when my niece got her first Basset Hound puppy we had to schedule a newborn shoot right away.  Baby Gus was a handful for the first part of the shoot, but he quickly fell asleep and let us […]

One of my favorite signs of Spring…DOGS! I absolutely love dogs, and I am looking forward to working with a lot of them this year. Despite the thoughts of many dog owners, a dog does not need to be perfectly obedient and extremely well trained in order for me to create some amazing photographs of […]

I met Sam about a year ago when I photographed her and her dog, Buck for an employee/pet shoot at Stone Hill Veterinary Clinic in Big Rapids. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working with Sam a couple of times. The first thing I noticed about Sam was her easing going, fun personality. […]

Photographing a‬ fawn has been on my photography wish list for a long time. I have been able to catch one here and there, but never exactly like I wanted…until this spring.  

It was raining on the morning of my session with Peaches and her mom.  We delayed the session for a few hours hoping that the rain would stop and it did.  After the rain, the weather cleared and it turned out to be a gorgeous, HOT day.  

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Dorie and her mom Kasey.  Dorie is a 2 year old Great Dane and a therapy dog.  We met in town for an urban session.  At first, Dorie was a little excited but later calmed down and allowed me to get some great photographs!  Not only is […]

Anybody who knows Melissa, knows that she has a love for cats—not just her cats, but all cats.  I was excited when she asked me to photograph her bunch because I heard that she had a few of them.  I can’t say that they loved having me around, but I enjoyed spending time with them anyway.  […]

When Amy contacted me about a photo session, she explained that there would be four people and five dogs.  She explained that a couple of her dogs are experiencing health problems, and that the main goal of the session was to create a group photo of all of them.  “That’s all I want,” she told […]

In January, Mustang Sally’s Tack Shop in LeRoy wanted to host a fundraiser that would benefit local shelters and animals in need.  The owner, Sally, organized many events to raise money, and I donated my services to photograph some wonderful furry friends.  The fundraiser was a success, and they were able to help several local shelters. […]

On a warm and sunny Fall day, I met the Schmidt family.  Mike and Laurie have a cottage on a local lake and enjoy spending much of their summer there.  It was only right that we take their photos at that very location.  It was a beautiful day, and the Fall colors were absolutely amazing!  Mike and Laurie’s boys, […]
