These two gorgeous dogs are giving their dad surprise photos for Christmas! So if you recognize them, shhh……. Lexi is the Golden Retriever and 9er is the Spaniel (and also dad’s favorite.) They just got a new baby brother, and we had to be sure to get him in on the fun, too. All three were so good during the session, we could have shot all day. It was the first time I’ve had a baby in the studio, and I must say it was pretty fun. I might even consider another some day 
Once again, I got to photograph the fabulous fashion show at the Pet Haven Fall Benefit! This year, though, I also got to have dinner, thanks to sponsors (and good friends) Pampered Pooch Playground. The Benefit had more silent auction items than ever before, and they raised over $28,000! If you’re looking to adopt a wonderful new friend, I highly recommend Pet Haven. They’re all volunteer, and all very passionate about rescuing and rehoming.
I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to all my wonderful friends, family and colleagues who have congratulated me and been super excited about the MN Monthly cover! You guys are the best and you make me feel pretty awesome. So, Thank You. 
I can’t even tell you how excited and honored I am to have an image on the *cover* of MN Monthly Magazine!! If you turn to pages 62-64, you’ll see more of my work, and a write-up about SBP. December is a special pet issue, and you’ll find many of my pet professional friends in there as well. I’m seriously giddy over here
I love Great Danes. They’re huge and majestic and no other dog photographs quite like a Dane. Priscilla was so beautiful, I couldn’t get enough of her, so we had quite a long session! Her new little brother, Goose, was on the go the whole time, so we didn’t get as many shots of him, but it was really all about Priscilla. Here’s just a few of my favorites…. it was definitely hard to narrow down!
Danes are from the “horse” family, right?
God I love kittens.
Thank you for an amazing session! I definitely got some new samples I need on my walls from this one
