Pet Portraits | Phoenix

The dog days of summer are finally over. In the desert, the summer seems to drag on forever. People can’t wait for it to end. October was an usually warm month – we were still using the air conditioner. But fall has finally arrived and has broken the hot summer spell. Bye bye air conditioners and hello open windows. Fall is a glorious time in the desert. The wildlife is more active and people are more active. And this is the busiest time of year for me. It’s been fast and furious with pet photo sessions – the holiday rush is in full swing. If you need photos for Christmas, please note that I have only one session left open. So if you need holiday prints/cards, please contact me right away. Once that last session is booked, I can’t guarantee any prints by Christmas. I am already booking sessions for January.

This has been both a rewarding and challenging year, but I am back on track so to speak and “clicking away.”  I have met so many wonderful people who invited me into their homes to photograph their pets. Four of those sessions were for terminally ill pets that have now passed away. I cried right along side the owners. It was heartbreaking, but the love and bond that they shared with their pets warmed and touched my heart. All animal lovers know what I am talking about. I am so grateful to be able to do what I love and be in “the company of animal people.”

Below are some furry faces from client shoots. To all the humans associated with these amazing animals – it has been a real pleasure and honor photographing your pets!
