Sweet Cocoa was the first baby before graduating to big sister 🥹

Maternity sessions with pets are just so special. Even more so for Cocoa's family, who were originally gifted this session for Max, Cocoa’s much loved brother, who sadly passed away before they had the chance to use it.

But then a year later with a baby on the way, it suddenly became the perfect time to capture their little family of three, with Cocoa right at the heart of it.

We just know she’s going to be the best big sister 🥰

If your dog was your ‘first born’ too, we'd love to capture some beautiful family memories for you just like these.

Thank you Cocoa's family for having us 🫶🏻

Dog maths: 3 berners + 1 bed = 0 space for the humans 🤭

These three cuties have the most heartwarming story as they were actually never meant to be a trio.

Harriet (6) and Dudley (5) have always been a very bonded pair. So when Harriet was sadly diagnosed with lung cancer and her family were told she may not have long left, puppy Olive joined the pack to be Dudley’s companion when that time came.

But Harriet had other plans. More than a year later, she’s still here with her pack and continuing to surprise everyone 🥹

So for now they’re a very happy family of five, with all the love and chaos you’d expect from a home with three berners!

(and enough space for the humans on the bed….just)

Meet the very loved family behind CIDER & BASIL 🤍

Henrietta is one of the most devoted dog mums you’ll ever meet, so photographing her at home with her whole furry family was so so special.

There’s Cider, her beautiful senior maremma, Basil and Quincy the berners, Winter the cat, plus one other feline family member Hershey, who politely declined to participate... except for one photo 🤭

Her love for them is also what inspired Cider & Basil, the beautiful cafe she created for dogs and their humans. 

And this weekend, Cider & Basil is celebrating one year at their Hawthorn home 🎉

Come along and celebrate with us - we’ll be there on Saturday photographing the Cider & Basil ‘Treat Challenge’ where your dog gets to show us exactly what they'll do for a treat!

(they can catch it, balance it, beg for it or perform their best trick...or fail spectacularly 😂)

Either way it's sure to be a fun way to pawty!

More event details to come in our Stories and over at Cider & Basil - we'd love to see you there! 🧡

180+ corgis later…WHAT.A.DAY. 😍

A huge thank you to Rach and the team at Augie’s Place for having us at the 2nd Annual Corgi Meetup on Sunday!

Thank you so much to all the corgis and pawrents who patiently waited for your family portraits on the day. We're busy editing away and your galleries will be ready tomorrow, we're excited!! Stay tuned 👀

PS. Swipe to the last photo...poor Augie definitely didn't appreciate Shell rejecting his goodbye kiss... 💔

Lucky in love 🤍

At the ripe old age of 13, Lucky was rescued by two loving mums who were determined to give him the retirement he deserved.

At 18 years and 10 months old, Lucky put on matching denim with his mums and welcomed us into his home to capture these memories together (although we're pretty sure he had no idea what all the fuss was about!)

He was the most senior pup we've ever had the joy of photographing.

Just a few weeks later, at almost 19 years old, Lucky peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge with his two favourite people in the whole world by his side.

We cried when we heard the news because we knew just how much he was loved. It takes a special kind of person to open your heart to a senior dog, knowing your time together will be all too short.

But looking at these photos, we're pretty sure Lucky’s mums would tell you it was worth every single second.

What an honour it was to meet him and capture part of Lucky's beautiful final chapter. Thank you Lucinda and Joanna for trusting us with your sweet boy 🌈

Life can surprise you in the sweetest ways.

Matt originally bought Cynthia this photo session as a Christmas gift, with gorgeous groodle Arthur (who also goes by his Spanish name, Arturo) set to be the star of the show.

But by the time they booked in a few months later, there was some unexpected news... Arthur was going to be a big brother!

And now looking at these photos, it feels like a love letter to their beautiful first chapter as a family - right before the big adventure to come.

Whatever season of life you’re in with your best friend, we’d love to help you capture it 🧡
