Pets Are Really Cool

Pets Are Really Cool Hey there! My name's Cory and I love taking photos of people's pets! My intent is to capture their personality and life in each shot.

Last night, , these candles were lit for the pets honored at Rainbow Night. 💛

Each one carried a name, a story, and a love that clearly has not gone anywhere. Thank you to everyone who came, shared memories, watched the slideshow, held space, and helped make the night feel so special.

This was inspired by my Pete, but it became something much bigger because of every pet who was part of it.

More photos and the slideshow will be coming soon.

I’ll also be holding future Rainbow Night / Rainbow Bridge tribute events. If you’d like to be notified directly when the next one is official, just reach out and I’ll add you to that list. It’ll only be for these events, not a general email list.

Rainbow Night is tonight from 5–8 PM at . It’s free to attend, and you’re welcome to come celebrate a senior pet, honor a pet who has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, or simply be there with people who understand.

Rainbow Night is for the pets who changed us forever. 🌈

Inspired by Pete, and created for every pet whose love still stays with us, this free tribute night is a gentle evening to celebrate senior pets and honor the ones who’ve crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

Join me at on Sunday, May 17 from 5–8 PM. Everyone who attends will receive a candle, and if you preregister, I’ll engrave your pet’s name on it. You can also submit a favorite photo when you register to be included in the tribute slideshow.

Emily Strongin with Peaceful Tails will be there as a pet end-of-life doula resource, and I’ll be taking photos throughout the evening.

Free to attend. Preregister here:

Cova had one very important job after Paws in the Park: choose the mini session winner.

Names were read, suspense was built, and Cova took his role exactly as seriously as you’d expect… which is to say, adorably and with his own process.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, entered the drawing, said hi, and let me meet your pups. The winner has been picked, and emails are going out now!

Doggy ’Lympics came, saw, and caused exactly the right amount of chaos. 🐾🏅

What started as an idea I couldn’t let go of turned into a really fun day full of tricks, treats, cheering, sniffing, ribbons, prizes, and dogs being very much themselves. There were some seriously impressive moves, some wildcards, some big personalities, and a lot of moments that made the whole thing feel worth it. I’m so grateful to everyone who came out, signed up, supported it, and helped me bring another original event to life.

Safe to say this won’t be the last.

Cova’s gotten his warm-up in, done a quick scan of the field, and so far… he has questions.

Doggy ’Lympics is this Saturday, April 18 at . Limited spots if your dog wants in.

Cova heard there were treats, tricks, and an audience, so now he’s in full Doggy ’Lympics training mode. 🐾🏅

Doggy ’Lympics is back on for April 18, and apparently somebody has decided he’s not showing up unprepared. If your dog has a signature move, a dramatic paw, or just enough chaos to make it interesting, they’ll fit right in.

Consider this Cova’s official “put me in, coach” submission.
