15 years?! 🐾📸

This is a big anniversary for my business, so to celebrate, I've designed some really special experiences (and bonuses) for my 2026 clients, as well as alllllll of my clients from the past 15 years.

See the details here:

Like I said... this is BIG. 🥳

I'm resharing this post - because the company just told me they want to feature 2 more dog breeds in this project! So now we're also looking for a GOLDEN RETRIEVER and a YORKIE. Please send an email with 2-3 photos of your dog to [email protected] if you have an adult purebred golden retriever or yorkie, and if you're available on October 5, 6 or 7 for a photo shoot in Rancho Bernardo! Thank you!

(Sorry, no puppies or senior dogs this time, only fully-grown adult dogs. And the yorkie doesn't need to know the "hold" command, but ideally the golden retriever would.)

Leave a comment if you have any questions 😊

UPDATE: this model call is now closed, we were able to find our models for this project! 👍

Do you have a Dalmatian, or know someone who does? Please share this with them! This photo shoot is for a national treat brand, and the dates are coming up quick! 🐾

Starting the week on a high note - because due to popular demand I’m opening up a second date for “Seas the Day” photo sessions! Were you hoping to participate but couldn’t make it on the 10th? Well you’re in good company… so come join me on the 25th instead. 🗓️

“A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawnmower is broken.”

Photo sessions with terminal dogs are never easy. But they sure can be beautiful. 🥲

This is Mala with her pup Duke. I still think about how special this session was for the two of them (and me too really), even though it’s been a couple of years. Duke was such a good boy. ❤️

Are you in the Bonsall area? Have you heard the news?

I'm joining the one and only Kate Schwindt Photography (KSP) for a special 2-day event in Bonsall next week! She's based in Colorado and traveling out by popular demand to photograph families and high school seniors. She invited me to join her and meet a few Bonsall dogs - so let's connect if that's your neck of the woods!
