Oh man. What a hilariously fun New York dog photography session! It was a hot, muggy Summer day in Long Island, and I had two floppy, happy Golden Retriever puppies on my hands, and one very distinguished senior Golden. We played in the big, beautiful yard, rolled around in the mud (well, I didn't do that part), almost fell in pool (yes, we ALL did that), and finally came inside and cooled off on the stone mud room floor.

Read MoreA few months ago NBC asked me to shoot an episode of 1st Look with Ashley Roberts (this season's host) and her awesome dog Cooper.

Maybe you grew up here, or maybe you're a New Yorker and you take day trips to the Berkshires, or Western Mass, or upstate New York on the weekends in the Fall to check out the leaves and eat some fresh picked apples.
Read MoreAlthough I’m a dog photographer, 90% of my job involves simply listening to people. What about the dogs, you might ask. Aren’t you supposed to be paying attention to the cute dogs? How could you even think about anything else when you’re surrounded by dogs all day?
Read MoreThere are some dog photographs in my portfolio that people always stop at and ask me "How'd you get that shot!?" So, I've decided to start a new series on the blog talking about those images, and answering that very question.

Read MoreI spent another wonderful (and warm, yet breezy) Sunday at the SOWA Arts Market on Sunday August 21 in Boston's South End. The market is located at 365 Albany St/450 Harrison Ave in a big shaded parking lot, and happens at the same time as an amazing Vintage Market (inside the large brick building), a farmer's market and Open Studios for the many, many talented artists inside the 450 Harrison building.
Read MoreIf you were to ask me right now what five things I am most afraid of, I guarantee you that watching my dog (Pancake) pass away would be high up on the list.
