Keirla's First Christmas Photos

12/21/2024

Merry First Christmas to Keirla! This lovely lady is a cousin to another adorable little client of mine named Annaliese. I photographed Annaliese as a newborn and then again this past fall for family photos with her mom and dad. Annaliese's mom referred me to her brother and sister-in-law and I was so happy when they reached out to book a session with me. It means so much to me when people pass my name along to their friends and family, and I was honored to be able to help capture some nice memories for little Keirla's First Christmas!

The family came to my studio for their session, so we had a ton of options and were able to incorporate lots of different backdrops, outfits, and props in the photos. Keirla is such a calm and happy baby and she let us go through so many different setups and did such a great job. Mom and Dad even hopped in for some family photos at the end of the session, which I love! Here are some of my favorite shots we got that day!

Photos from the Islip Public Library Holiday Pet Portrait Program on 11.30.24

It was great to be back at the Islip Public Library for another pet portrait program on their outdoor terrace. We did a holiday theme again this year with some props I brought and some that the library had. We had 28 families join us that day with 37 dogs and 2 guinea pigs! It was a packed event and so much fun. Every time I do one of these events, it's clear to me how much Long Islanders love their animals.

Thank you to the library for having me and to all the families who came out and braved the cold for a photo of their pet!

Here are some of the photos we got that day!

Photos from Barkfield Road Pet Holiday Mini Sessions 2024

It's always wonderful to be back at Barkfield Road in East Northport for holiday pet portraits. I've been doing photo events at this adorable pet boutique since 2017. Over the years it's changed ownership and layout, but what hasn't changed is the amazing support of the community of pet lovers in the area.

We've learned over the years that a one day event just isn't enough to satisfy all the dog lovers who want a holiday photo at their favorite pet store. Last year we added on a second date due to high demand, but had to do it a week later because of my packed holiday schedule. This year we planned it early so we could book two days in a row, so I was able to leave my setup there overnight for a weekend packed with pet photos. We were fully booked which was great, because the event is a fundraiser for the Dotty Fund. The Dotty Fund provides financial assistance for Long Island families who are having a hard time paying for medical treatment for their animals.

Thank you so much to the owners of Barkfield Road, Gabriella and Kevin, for having me again. Thank you to their wonderful employees for their help throughout the event, and thank you to everyone who brought their dogs in for photos!

Here are some of the adorable shots we got that day.

Photos from Pawcasso Pet Holiday Photoshoot Event on 11.9.24

I had so much fun at the Fall and Halloween pet photo event at Pawcasso Art Studio & Pet Boutique, I was so happy to go back again the next month for a Holiday pet photo shoot! I brought winter, Christmas and Hanukkah props for folks to choose from. We had a lot of people come in with their pups to get a photo, a goodie bag from Pawcasso and to spoil their dog with their wonderful treats.

I even got a behind the scenes glimpse of how they make their amazing single ingredient treats that they're famous for. My dog Gracey is absolutely obsessed, so it was really cool to see the process that goes into making them!

It was so nice to photograph Dewey and Great Dane mix Frida, the owner Barbara's dogs. I said to her at one point, "I think Frida will be the largest pup we see today" and she said to me "No way, wait until Ripley comes in". Frida's best dog friend Ripley, a full Great Dane, was possibly the tallest dog I've ever seen in my life. She made Frida look petite, and it was so funny to see them wrestle and play. They have NO idea how big they are and they're so adorable together.

Thank you so much to Barbara for having me back and her employee Bailey who helped out that day! If you're ever in the Westhampton Beach area, please stop by their amazing store, and if you're not on Long Island, buy their treats online! Your dog will thank you for it!

Here are some of the great shots we got that day!

Laci, Luci & Levi Return (feat. Abbey!)

My lovely client Kelly is always the first one to reach out to me every year about Christmas photos. She likes to get everything done well in advance and I love that! I'm always so busy around November for Christmas sessions that I have to turn people away because I just don't have the time. More people should think about getting their Christmas photos done in July! We had gorgeous weather and plenty of daylight to work with, and no one froze their butt off to get the perfect shot. As they do every year, Laci, Luci and Levi did an amazing job for their photos. We had the extra pleasure of getting to include Kelly's nephew's dog Abbey, an adorable Dachshund pup, in the photos too. She is simply too cute.

This year Kelly went with a gingerbread theme for the photos and she had a wonderful setup all planned out for us when we got there. She even gifted me the adorable gingerbread house prop we used, and it made its way into many of my Christmas photo sessions for the rest of the holiday season.

After we finished our Christmas photos, the pups changed outfits for more fancy photos. We took some on top of a special memorial bench dedicated to Kelly's beloved late dog Lexi. It's always a pleasure to photograph these special pups.

Here are some of my favorite photos from our session that day!
