A Dog-On Success!

A Dog-On Success!

Our Dog Days of Winter pet portrait fundraiser was a HUGE success! We had 25 families bring their pets in for a total of about 36 pets! Families were extremely generous with their food and litter donations, we managed to fill up a large pick-up truck full!! I haven’t gotten the official results from the Humane Society yet, but I know it was a huge success!! Thank you to our wonderful and amazing clients for participating!! If you missed out and would like to be part of our next one, please sign up to receive our email newsletter!!

Miss Mari is 9 Months!

Miss Mari is 9 Months!

It has been a crazy busy week at the studio with lots of sessions and pet-viewing appointments. I didn’t mean to neglet the blog, it just sort of happened!

Little Miss Mari came in this week for her 9 month session. When the camera wasn’t in sight, she was full of smiles and gigles. The second the camera came up to my face she became serious! So funny how they just “know”! Regardless of her seriousness, we managed to get a lot of super cute images! Here are a few of my favorites from the session!

More Pet-Lovin’ Fun!!

Today was day two of our Dog Days of Winter pet photo fundraiser for the Carver-Scott Humane Society! What a blast we had. All together we photographed over 30 pets and collected a TON of food for the Humane Society!! In addition, 20% of any additional portrait sales will be donated to the Humane Society!! It feels so good to help out these amazing animals! Here is a little peek at some of the cuties we saw today!!

A Dog-Gone Good Day!

A Dog-Gone Good Day!

Today was the first of two days for our Dog Days of Winter Promotion! We had 20 pets come into the studio for their portraits and it was SO much fun!! We have collected a TON of food and there is still another day left! I am so excited by how generous people were with giving to the Humane Society! A large majority of the pets photographed today were from one rescue or another, so I think that really makes a difference! I am looking forward to another full day tomorrow! For now, here is a sneak peek of some of the cuties I had the opportunity to work with!

Sydney’s Birthday Bash!!

Sydney’s Birthday Bash!!

Little Miss Sydney came in this week for her First Birthday Bash, complete with cake and a tutu! I have known her mom for many years and can totally see her mom’s fire in her eyes! She is going to give her mom some grief as she gets older! (sorry Rachele, but it’s true! LOL). She is just SO adorable and full of giggles and smiles! She wasn’t quite so sure about the cake situation, I truly think she didn’t want to get herself dirty! It was just too cute! Here is a sneak peek of her Birthday Bash !

Miss Libbey is 18 Months!

Little Miss Libbey came in this week for her 18 month session. I can’t believe this is the very last session of her First Years plan !! Now she will move into the Kids Klub starting with her 2nd birthday!! She is one of my favorite little clients, she is just so adorable! Her mom and dad are the sweetest parents, they just love their little cutie pie! I have so enjoyed watching her grow, and I think this is my favorite session so far ~ aside from the Newborn session , which nothing competes against a newborn session!! Here is a sneak peek!

Mason’s Newborn Session!

Mason’s Newborn Session!

You may remember my dear friend Nadine’s pregnancy session from a few weeks ago. Well, they had a beautiful baby boy named Mason, and brought him in for his very first session last Friday! He is SO tiny, precious and adorable!! He did amazingly well for his session, and we didn’t even have an “accident” with his diaper off (which is RARE, almost every baby has an accident! It is pretty much expected when we take the diaper off)! Here is a sneak peek at his session!
