The Studio Is Closed

After 15 amazing years of photographing stories of dogs and their humans across the country, my studio officially closed on March 1, 2021. I no longer take private commissions, as I make space to venture in a new creative direction. You can still get to know me and my long career of fine art dog photography through this site, as well as sign up for Classes or Mentoring via the tabs above.

As always, my images and copy are fully copyrighted and I use automated programs to alert me when my work has been stolen, which will result in a quick Cease and Desist letter. Please make your own copy, it will be much better.

Before I meet your dog, I want to get to you know you, your values and your lifestyle. Our first step is the Creative Call where we'll talk about your project, who’ll be in the photos, and where we’ll be photographing. Of course, we’ll also talk about your dog—I want to understand the essence of who he is, what your relationship is like, and how your life has changed since bringing him home. 

Photography Sessions always happen in a place where you’re both comfortable, whether that's lounging in the sun spot at home or out on your favorite weekend hike. The location is completely up to you, and there is never a time limit. I want our time together to feel like any other day you’d spend with your dog—easy, joyful and connected.

Then, before I begin production, I’ll help you get to the heart of your story with a Presentation. I’ll walk you through the process of curating a collection of inspired, archival-quality prints for your home and together we’ll select images that best reflect you, your dog and your friendship. It's not uncommon for my clients to feel emotional during this process–relief, joy, sadness, and more joy. 

These photographs will not only last forever, they will tell your story, and as an artist there is nothing I love doing more.
