Going out on a limb here - I’d say 40% of my sessions are surprises or gifts for clients’ loved ones. I think that’s so incredibly thoughtful because, for those of us without two-legged offspring, our dogs are our babies. It’s not unusual to have sessions for families, human babies, seniors, etc, so I’m happy we’re normalizing photo shoots for our pups. In our hearts, it’s all the

Early mornings in the McDowell Mountains are always special. Everything is quiet and still and the light is soft, warm, and golden. There were no exceptions the morning I got to photograph Wrigley and Nelly.

His timing was impeccable, and his mid-air snack–catching skills gave us some truly hilarious, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments.

What really made Miles unforgettable, though, were

As the thermometer starts climbing outside, indoor sessions offer a safe, comfortable option for both you and your pup—no hot ground to walk on, no relentless sun, no sweltering car rides, no overheating

Noel’s mom is a repeat client, and I first shared her session on the blog back in March. So when she reached out again—this time after adopting Hashbrown—I was absolutely thrilled! Of course we had to celebrate the newest addition with another photo shoot in their home stomping grounds of Sedona.

We chose a new location with even more red rock scenery, giving us those iconic Sedona backdrops

This photo shoot with Maja was one of those evenings that stays with you long after the camera is put away and the artwork is delivered.

We met at sunset at Tom’s Thumb trailhead, just as the desert was beginning to soften in color and light. From there, we hiked down to a quiet, private spot where Maja could be completely relaxed, focus on the camera, and be herself. The warm
