Valentines {Dog} Day, Calgary

A Happy New Year in Calgary Alberta

 2010 was a great year for me for many reasons, a big one being the official launch of my site and blog... a long time coming for me! Grateful doesn’t begin to describe how I feel about the opportunities that came my way in 2010. I had a huge learning curve this past year and I was able to work a lot more with Julie (Quantum Images Inc)... photo editing at her Estee Lauder photo events as well as learning the ropes for assisting her with weddings! I love to learn when and wherever I can with photography, and these opportunities were invaluable experiences for me. My expectations were exceeded with my own shoots as well, and I had such a great time meeting every new dog client and their people(s). My Ed came through for me and loyally toted around on most all of these shoots, and once again, I am so, so grateful!! I am looking forward to another fabulous year of photography!! Here's a few quick pics my sweet inspiration Boomer .

Happy 2011



The Motley Crew of Trail BC

Merry Christmas to my BC gals...and their little dogs too!  Well, ok, three little dogs and one gi-normous 5 month old puppy! I am so glad to have finally had the chance to do a mini-shoot of sorts and snap a few pics of this crazy crew that I hear about all the time.

"Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring, it was peace." - Milan Kundera


A piece of my heart belongs in Trail forever ~ Thank you for your friendship and thanks for the lovely visit!

New Beginnings



This Calgary family has had their share of loss recently, having to say goodbye to two of their dogs within the last year. It is true that a dogs only shortcoming is that they will not live as long as us. And no matter what age they do live to, it is never long enough.

I was happy to hear that Dexter recently found his way to this family, to once again bring friendship, companionship, and that pure unbridled canine joy to their home. It became clear to me that this puppy already adores these boys, though I believe the feeling was pretty mutual :)

It was a great day to get out and do a shoot in the snowfall! It got a bit cold near the end of the session, however these kids hung in there and were troopers! The cold toes have long since warmed up, and the wet feet are nice and dry...the only things that will last from this day are the photographs. I hope that I have served them well and captured sweet little Dexter beginning his life with his boys.

Thank you Barb, Riley, Quinn and of course... Dexter!!!

Starting to book into 2011! Still some sessions happening over the next few weeks before Christmas that I am excited about. We also have our very own Gift Certificates now too...cool!  Check them out on the website.

Georgia On My Mind...

It is so cool that, even though this is a city of a million people, the fresh air and peacefulness of the prairies lies just a short drive from home. Today we left what is the urban sprawl of Calgary and headed just south of the city to see about a sweet girl named Georgia. She wanted us to come over and take a few pictures of her and her life on the farm. I think the pictures may be Christmas present to her parents... though what she does with them is up to her ;) Beautiful dog, beautiful day, beautiful Alberta!

Thank you for the lovely day Georgia (and Georgia's mom)!

More pictures to follow soon on the website!
