It's Throwback Thursday Time!

Who could this curly-coated chaos goblin be, looking like the purple disc just insulted their entire family? 😂💜

🐾 RCDD Cross Over Crown — let’s see some air time!

I’ll be photographing the RCDD Cross Over Crown – UpDog Disc Trial at Bord-Aire Community Club in Winnipeg, MB on June 6th!

I’ll be there capturing all the fast, funny, focused, and flying moments that make this sport so much fun to watch — from big sends to perfectly timed catches.

A few quick notes:

* 📸 Photo coverage is confirmed for June 6th
* 📸 Pre-orders are welcome before the event — first-come, first-served

Why pre-order?

✔️ Priority posting — earlier orders are edited first
✔️ Helps me know who to watch for and prioritize during the event
✔️ Lets you relax and enjoy your day without having to sort it all out later

TOP DOG packages always include a dedicated slideshow featuring just your dog’s runs — one of the perks that makes this package extra popular.

All dogs entered in the event will be photographed.

Images are typically posted about 1 week after the event in a RAW image slideshow gallery.

Looking forward to a fun day in Winnipeg and seeing all the dogs out doing their thing. 🐾

📸 Throwback Thursday time… and this one goes WAY back. 😳🐾

These images were taken June 14, 2019 — almost 7 years ago!

This was a backyard disc practice out at Jo-Anne Coulombe’s place, and also happened to be a very important test day for me. My trusty Canon 1DX DSLR was starting to give me issues, so this session became my “let’s see if this Sony thing is actually worth it” test run. 😅

At the time, switching systems felt HUGE. I had been shooting Canon since I was 16 years old. But Sony’s mirrorless technology was way ahead of the 'sport' game back then, and I needed a camera NOW… so I took the leap.

Well… here we are years later:
➡️ Sony A9 (first Sony body)
➡️ Sony A1 (second Sony camera, now my back-up)
➡️ now the A1ii (current camera)
…and many hundreds of thousands of dog photos later. 🐕📸

The funny part?
I realized I never actually published this group session gallery on my new website! 🤦‍♀️

So I’ve finally made it available — and there are 156 images total from this practice session!

NOW for the Throwback Thursday challenge…

Can you name the dogs in these teaser images? 👀 And more from the gallery?
Because honestly… not even I know all of them this week. 😂

🐾 Final MGA Sprinter RAW Image Slideshows are now LIVE! 🎬

I started this editing marathon with coffee and confidence…
I finished it relating deeply to these dogs’ expressions. 😅

Throwback Thursday - Here is this week’s challenge...

Who could this wild-eyed disc destroyer be, fully committed and slightly unhinged?

Caption this! Haha!

I do have some laughs while going through all the images from the weekend. This one in particular cracked me up!

Sunday May 10th - Trial 1, Part A and B Slideshows are now up in the gallery for those interested.

SundayTrial 2 will be uploaded tomorrow. There is A LOT of images to go through! If you know someone who had a dog entered at this weekend's event and would like to see images, please share the link with them.

Latest slideshows can be viewed via the Gallery. Enjoy!

MGA Sprinter - Trial 2 Slideshows are up and ready for viewing.

https://candicedaumphotography.pixieset.com/mgasprinterslideshowsmay2026/trial2saturdayrawimageslideshow/

Each image in the slideshow has a filename on the bottom corner (e.g., SA-T1A_0642_May 09, 2026):

SA-T1A: Saturday Trial 1, Part A (available now)
SA-T1B: Saturday Trial 1, Part B (available now)
SA-T2A: Saturday Trial 2, Part A (available now)
SA-T2B: Saturday Trial 2, Part B (available now)

SU-T2A: Sunday Trial 2, Part A (coming soon)

The slideshows are organized in order of appearance—you can pause, rewind, skip ahead, or adjust the speed to find your dog. YouTube video can also be streamed to your Smart TV if you are having trouble viewing on a phone. Not all dogs have the same number of images. This is just luck of the draw (length of game, obstructions, focusing, etc.). There is a list of dogs in order of appearance in the gallery to help you locate yours.

Order and website links in comments. ENJOY!

NOTE: These are raw previews straight from the ‘playground’. Final images will be fully edited with cropping, colour correction, and all the finishing touches!

💙 Wrapping up an amazing 2025 season 💙

As I wrap up another full season, I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who trusted me to capture it. From flying paws and blink-and-you-miss-it action to intense focus and teamwork — it’s been an honour.

My work is usually all about the dogs doing their thing, but every now and then a moment between a dog and their person stops me in my tracks. It’s not always about ribbons or wins — the real win is the time we get to spend with our dogs. The quiet encouragement, the shared pride, the joy in simply being there together. Those are the moments that melt my heart and feel just as worthy of preserving.

Cheers to everyone who supports professional photography, and to the furry athletes who show up simply to please, play, and have fun. All of the images shared here were captured throughout 2025 at various events — and I’m already looking forward to seeing what 2026 brings. 🐾

Wishing you and your dogs a season full of good runs, good company, and great memories, because these moments matter just as much as the action.

Cheers!
