Bringing in the Ber months is the dapper, Finn! 🎩

Finn used to live on the streets of Florida, but then his mama rescued him from a shelter. They lived happily in Florida for a few years before moving to North Carolina to be with his papa. Finn enjoys hiking, sunbathing, napping, and all the treats!

Also, fun fact, Finn and his Second Chance Pet Adoptions Alum sister, Cleo, were both in this year’s calendar. Cleo represented the month of May this year! 😊

Another fun fact is that this image is one of my personal favorites from the entire calendar and Finn totally does the vibe justice with his stoic face and regal demeanor! Don’t you think?

PS. This is a good time to bring up that October is mostly booked out and I’m booking now into December. Don’t sleep on reaching out to book your Autumn session! If you’ve been thinking about scheduling, consider this your reminder. 😉 (And yes I will talk about this until I’m blue in the face 😂)

Dog photographers, this one’s for you! 📸

How confident are you at recognizing when a dog is feeling stressed during a session? Or do you even know that they are stressed, uncomfortable, or anxious?

Dogs don’t always make it obvious. 👀

Sometimes the signs are so subtle they are often missed—a quick lip lick, turning away, yawning, shaking off, or suddenly becoming unable to focus.

The better we are at recognizing those signals, the better we can adjust our approach and create a more comfortable experience for the dog with incredible images as the outcome, too!

So, I created a free Dog Stress Signals Guide specifically for Dog Photographers.

Inside, you’ll learn some of the common stress signals to watch for along with what they mean.

Because understanding the dog in front of your camera is just as important as understanding your camera. ❤️

And I promise, your four legged clients will appreciate it, too.

Grab your free copy through the link in my bio. 👏🏻

PS. I’ll also be teaching a free webinar digging into these concepts further, so keep an eye on your email.

INTRODUCING THE GREATEST COMPANION 🐾💕

That’s right… next year means we are creating a coffee table book!

With Volume 1 launching in February 2027 with celebrating (you guessed it) rescue dogs and their stories.

Dog guardians will be invited to apply to have their rescue dogs photographed and featured in the book with sponsorship opportunities from local brands and businesses helping bring the project to life so all of the proceeds go back to our friends over at Longleaf Animal Rescue.

That’s all I’m sharing for now. 😉

Be sure to follow The Greatest Companion Books for more updates and information as we get closer to launch!
