We have a little catching up to do!
I have been kept very busy by all of you, so thank you☺️

The golden hour glow was absolutely perfect during this session for Bauer and Tavia! My favourite part about these sessions is getting to watch you and your dog; the relationship, love, and trust you’ve built really shines through in such a beautiful way

Wishing Tavia all the best as she goes off to vet school! 🩺

Sometimes you need to push yourself out of your comfort zone, and that’s exactly what Jen & Tod helped me do with a fun and unique “wreck the dress” including the dogs💜

What do we think??
I’m kinda in love with how these turned out (and in love with Jen and Tod, but can you blame me?! Look at them😍)

As a photographer, I do everything in my power to ensure we get everything right: conditions, poses, enjoyment… But the thing about these two is that they bring their own sunshine, their own spark, their entire hearts❤️
I truly believe that the universe showed up for them on the morning we did this session. It was perfect, they were perfect, and it was the honour of my life to capture Kat and Rubix in this way.
Every session is special to me, but photographing two beings that mean so incredibly much to me was profound, emotional, and nothing short of incredibly meaningful

Happy Saturday! I hope everyone is enjoying a nice,slow, and relaxing morning ❤️
I think I have the perfect addition to round out that kind of morning: handsome boy Cyrus 🖤

This big little man has grown so much since we did his puppy photos! He was such a good boy for his session and had lots of fun playing on the beach. Thank you Amy for trusting me to capture these milestones in your beautiful boy’s life 🥰

This location is quickly becoming one of my favourite places to photograph, especially at sunrise 🌅 send me a message if you want to book a session here!

Happy Saturday!
I can’t think of a better way to start your weekend than sipping your morning coffee while looking at this sweet little family 🥰☕
Ember totally nailed it during our session as did her humans! She brought her absolute best and cutest happy expressions and did so well. Thank you Andrea for trusting me to capture you and your beautiful girl🤎

We have so much catching up to do!
Thank you all for keeping me such a busy little bee 🐝 I have a few recent sessions to post, so here we go!

This adorable beach session with Sage and her fam was all smiles. Like Ken, this girl’s job is beach. She lives it, she breaths it, and I think that’s pretty obvious by her expression in these 🤭
I love catching your dog in those moments of pure joy. After all, that’s how we see them and that’s why we love them

Thank you for such a fun session that had everyone smiling from ear to ear 🩵

A couple weeks ago now, I had the unique pleasure of being included as part of the Extension Dog Sports 2025 Retreat package. For their Registration, each participant got a few photos of their dog in this spectacularly beautiful place 🤩

What a dream it was to be able to play agility, canicross, and Rally with my boy Fergie, AND photograph all these incredible dogs. I can hardly wait to be invited back for more of the same next year ☺️🤞🏼

The golden hour sessions in these woods lately have been giving me life and really got the creative juices flowing!
Seeing you, your dogs, and the relationships you have with them brings me so much happiness and inspires me so much to capture those special moments.

Rudy, Fin, and their parents were born to strut their stuff through these woods 💃🏼 I asked Zach and Julia if they thought they'd be able to get the dogs to either heel in between them or on each side as they walked towards me. They gave a less than confident ”we’ll try” and then proceeded to nail it immediately 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I am currently sniffing out a spot for some possible flower minis, so stay tuned and cross your fingers for me!

Arya & Asher
There was just wayyyy too many to choose from to post from this session… this was me narrowing it down! 😝
Everyone got the memo and crushed it. I also love when you guys bring your own ideas for fun poses along! I always ask at the end of the session if there’s any photos or poses in particular that you’ve seen and want to try, so we tried some shots of mom and dad running in different directions to see who the dogs ran after…
Poor dog dad 🙈

While we’re on the subject of props….
I HAVE to share my sweet Lucy’s 6th birthday photos 🤭
Throwing them little birthday parties each year is one of my favourite things to do 🩷

(Brother Fergie may look traumatized in his party hat, but I can assure you, he had every option to leave but he stayed for cake 🎂the right choice in my opinion heehee)

Cakes, hats, balloons, banners; all are welcome so long as dog(s) remain happy, confident, and comfortable :)

This sneak peek is for all the people out there that love props! There is nothing more that I love than props 🙌🏼 especially if you’re celebrating a birthday like Asher here!

I’ll be posting another peek from this session as well as another session soon, but I figured we needed a separate moment for the props from this one 🙏🏼

You may remember this handsome young man from his puppy photos! Can you believe that Stetson here turns 1 in a just a couple days?? 🤠

This little dude is the definition of a trooper. Stetson recently underwent surgery to fix a rare condition, but is on the mend and will soon be back to the regular programming of being a pain-free young Border Collie 🧡

Sending positive healing thoughts and some big ol’ happy birthday hugs and kisses xoxo
