Some Golden Goodness
Whew, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted. I hope everyoe is keeping happy & healthy! We took a little time off, did some traveling and a lot of working, so now it’s back to the daily routine for a bit. This summer I was happy to donate photography services for this year’s Golden …
A Smile For The Weekend
I just want to say a big thank you to everyone for all the kind comments on my ramblings about loving and loss. Everyone who has loved someone (dog or human) and gone through the pain of losing them, knows exactly how I feel…both are a universal experience. I didn’t mean to wallow, and I …
Lasting Love
It is hard to believe a year ago, today, we lost Kona to cancer. Not a day goes by that I don’t remember him in some little way and with a smile. A lot of people ask us why we haven’t adopted another dog into our lives yet. Healing takes time. Some heal quickly, or …

Pinup Pups-Part 4
This session photographing for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar was a big challenge…trying to get a decent frame of 4 Goldens! After much experimentation it was decided they would sit still in the truck and voila!…a frame with no one barking, blinking, slobbering or moving.

My second session photographing for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar was with a super cute rescue named, Sweetness.

Pinup Pups-Part 1
This year I was asked to be the photographer for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar. So over the past week, I drove all over Los Angeles to meet some awesome Goldens and their people. There were many cookies, laughs and lots of Golden smiles during the sessions, as I tried …

Happiness is in the little things…
Happiness is getting an update about a foster. Some of you may remember a long time ago we fostered a little puppy named Niko. He was smart as a whip and had razor sharp puppy teeth:) Niko was only with us a few days until he caught a ride up to Homeward Bound but …
Kona: Big Goofy Dog Grin
This week I was doing some photo management while migrating my library from Lightroom 3 to 4 and came across a series of photos of Kona that really tugged at my heart. It was just another day in which Kona and I had a great time hanging out. In truth that was pretty much every …
Foster : Larry-Day 5
Five days with Larry, and he has settled in nicely. He is now coming to work with me, where he loves to get pets from clients and then he snoozes while we work. After work, Larry enjoys some fun and games, his favorite is chasing things….balls, stuffies and frisbees. He is very good at catching …
Foster : Larry-Day 4
We were practicing our obedience commands when I captured Larry’s perfect sit-stay. He sat there until I gave him the “come” command. We are working on both hand and vocal signals. I am pleased to announce Larry has mastered “leave it” and will wait until I tell him “ok” to get a cookie inches from …
Foster : Larry-Day 3
Larry’s 3rd day with us was very wet and full of rain so he spent most of the day lounging inside. He came to work with me and was the perfect boy, sleeping for most of the day and happy to take a walk in the middle, even though we got quiet soaked. In the …
Foster : Larry-Day 2
Larry has settled in nicely and we are getting to know this great guy. He is a moderate energy dog, happy to sleep at your feet while you work after a good morning walk and play. Larry is a bit overweight right now and he might feel a little more frisky once he gets to …
Foster : Larry
Meet Larry, a flat coat retriever. Sprung from jail, Larry is now livin’ large and taking advantage of not being cooped up in a cell. As you can see he is pretty happy about his new freedom. First thing on his agenda: get clean. A guy gets mighty smelly in jail, so after a bath, …
