Lily and Rose are no strangers to my camera and have gone on many photo adventures with me. We were first introduced at a session at Fisher Farm in Davidson, NC. The next fall, we explored Campbell’s Covered Bridge outside of Greenville, SC. Then we went big! We ventured up to Black Balsam Knob in the mountains of North Carolina and just a few months ago, took it to the coast on the beach at Hunting Island State Park. 🙌

Oh Max!!!! Max’s mom sent me a photo of him before our session and I immediately knew he was going to be a camera ham. This little guy was found roaming the street and thankfully didn’t bother his soon-to-be-dad’s allergies. The stars aligned, it was meant to be, and he quickly found his forever home.

Max now spends his days running in the yard, touring Lake Hartwell on his parent’s boat, paddle boarding with

Some of you may recognize Ginger from her photo shoot HERE. Well, this was actually the first time I got to meet this spunky lady - at Hunting Island Beach! Her family visits the beach pretty often but Ginger was still in the process of figuring out just what all this gritty pale stuff was and why the water tasted so salty. She pretty much stayed clear of the ominous crashing waves but still gave us some great shots full of personality!

I seriously love working with this couple every. single. time. Meet KeenDog Training! You’ve seen them over here so many times and they have the absolute best dogs (and clients). They hire me every couple years as their pack of pups changes. This time we got to photograph Sagat, Timber, and Amelia for their social media and for artwork on their walls.

I love it when I can meet up with super cool people in a super cool place. Teddy’s parents are awesome outdoorsy people that rock climb, hike, and own a camper van - totally my kind of people! And, most importantly, they have the cutest little dog! We met up in San Diego and spent a morning shooting in a park by the San Diego Bay. Teddy wasn’t a huge fan of the damp grass but he was all in when it came to the hugs and kisses. 😘

Mighty Thor. Yes. That is what I call Thor here. He’s mighty in that he protects his lovely family from harm. He’s mighty in that he is the best ball fetcher in his whole neighborhood. He’s mighty in that he can pool dive with the best of them. Oh and most importantly, he’s mighty in that he gives the best cuddles to his human sisters.

One of my big clients is Nutramax, the makers of Cosequin. For those of you that don’t know them, they develop and manufacture supplements for dogs, cats, and horses. They range from joint supplements, to skin and fur supplements, to calming supplements. Their products have helped so many pets and the testimonials I hear absolutely blow me away!

Dogs plus kids can be a tricky combo. Most people know that those are probably the two hardest genres to photograph - especially together. However, when it all works out, the images can be magical! And that’s exactly what happened during Althea’s shoot!
