Photos from the Comsewogue Public Library Pet Portrait Program on 5.11.24

4/19/2025

0 Comments

 
I was happy to add another library to my list of pet portrait programs last year! I did my first one at the Comsewogue Public Library and never got around to posting them here! We did our program out on their large lawn. We had a lot of adorable pups join us! It’s always so much fun to meet new dog lovers and hear about how much they love their pets. A lot of times these programs are the first time that people have ever had a professional photo taken of their animal and it’s always really great to be able to give them a new experience. I heard stories that day about recent losses in patrons’ families, house fires where they lost so much, and it really underlined how important photography is. It’s an honor to be able to contribute to happy memories for so many people. Thank you so much to the library for having me and to everyone who brought their pet for a photo!
 
I'll be back at Comsewogue on 5.10.25!
​ Register here for that!

Here are some great shots we got that day!

Prince's 14th Birthday Party

4/17/2025

2 Comments

 
I was so excited when Prince's dad Sunil got in touch with me to talk about photographing his 14th birthday party. Prince is a beautiful German Shepherd who had a pretty rough health scare in January. He's doing so much better and his family is so grateful that he's happy and healthy to celebrate his 14th birthday! So many friends and neighbors came to party with their pups. 

We set up a white backdrop with a red carpet (Prince's dad Maarten works in movies so he had this on hand for us!) at the entrance of the party, so families could take a photograph with their dogs. There were so many cute pups and I loved following them around to take candid photos of them enjoying their puppy party time. 

At the end of the party, they brought out a beautiful doggy cake from Barkfield Road in East Northport, my local small business buddies! The speed in which these dogs devoured that cake was truly impressive. To be fair, it looked so amazing, I kind of wanted to try a piece! 

Thank you Sunil and Maarten for trusting me to capture these very special photos of their beloved pup! Here are some of my favorite shots we got that day!

Photos from Pawcasso St. Patrick's Day Photo Event 3.2.25

3/17/2025

I was so happy to be invited back to Pawcasso Art Studio & Pet Boutique in Westhampton Beach for a St. Patrick's Day pet mini session event. I had a lot of fun crafting a pot of gold for this shoot out of my old Halloween cauldron. Most of the pups were happy to sit inside it, but a few preferred to sit right next to it. Of course, Frida, Barbara's beautiful Great Dane mix wouldn't have fit inside it in a million years but she was happy to sit next to it, even allowing us to put a very fun hat on her!

Thank you so much to Pawcasso for having me again! Please stop in there if you're in the Westhampton Beach area.

Here are some of my favorite shots we got during the event! 
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

It was great to be back at Pawcasso Art Studio & Pet Boutique in Westhampton Beach for a Valentine's Day mini session day. Barbara and her staff there are so sweet and we always have a really fun time during these photo events. We had some really cute stuff for these Valentine's Day photos. I brought a white backdrop and a sequin backdrop, and lots of props like a Kissing Booth sign, heart garland, angel wings and a halo, and more. Barbara had some adorable heart and XO pillows and a really cute purple crown bed for the pups to sit in. 

After each pup had their close up with me, they got some doggy ice cream and either a lick painting or a paw print painting done with help from the Pawcasso ladies. They left with some beautiful artwork and a goodie bag full of treats from Barbara. Thank you so much to Pawcasso for having me again! Please stop in there if you're in the Westhampton Beach area. I'll be back there again on 3/2 for a St. Patrick's Day shoot!

Find all the details and sign up for that here! I'll be posting more about that soon. 

Here are some of my favorite shots we got during the event! 
Happy Valentine's Day!

For $55 you get your pet's photo taken, 3-5 digital files emailed to you, a lick painting, pup ice cream and a goodie bag of stuff from Pawcasso!

I decided to break out my big Halloween cauldron to craft a pot of gold for pups to sit in (or next to if they're as big as Barbara's girl Frida, the Great Dane mix)! I took a few photos of my girl Gracey and my doggy nephew Hopper to show everyone what our setup is going to look like!

Remy's 5th Birthday Studio Session

2/7/2025

0 Comments

 
Remy's mom Drew got in touch with me because she was interested in getting professional photos taken of her adorable bulldog/beagle mix Remy to celebrate his 5th birthday, which is today! Happy Birthday Remy! She told me she just wanted a few good shots of him, but she was unsure how he would do because he's blind and has a ton of energy. She thought he would be too excited if I came to their house because he loves visitors, so she wanted to bring him to my home studio, which is great because we had the full range of backdrops and props to choose from for his session. She and her husband Luke brought so many cute things to use for his photos like balloons, toys, a birthday hat, and even a homemade birthday cake for him to enjoy at the end of the shoot!

We started out on a blue background to match all his adorable accessories. Remy did such an amazing job posing. Even though he's blind, he had no trouble finding the camera because over the years I've built up quite the arsenal of absolutely ridiculous noises I can make to get dogs to look at me! After a while we switched to a light brown backdrop and got mom and dad involved for some family photos! Then it was time for Remy's favorite part of the session, when we brought out the adorable homemade birthday cake his mom baked him. We got some great shots of him happily digging in. I was prepared for there to be a huge mess in the aftermath, but Remy cleaned up after himself like a gentleman! There was barely a crumb left behind! 

Here are some of my favorite shots from our session!

Bella's Downport Session

2/1/2025

0 Comments

 
I first met Cindy and Bella at one of my Barkfield Road holiday mini session events years ago. I love doing those kind of events because I get to meet a ton of pet owners who love their animals the same way I do. As the years went on, Cindy followed along on my email list and attended a lot of the events I do at libraries and pet stores where I got to know her and Bella better. She and Bella have an incredibly deep bond and go most everywhere together. Bella’s a special dog and Cindy does everything in her power to keep her as active and healthy as possible even in her senior years. She's an incredible advocate for her dog.

We had talked about doing a full session together for a long time and I was so excited when we finally got a photo shoot on the books by the water in Port Jefferson last summer. We got started in front of the beautiful Danford’s and walked along the marina, stopping at the many gorgeous spots along the way. We worked our way down the harbor, took walks up and down the docks, and through the park that leads to the beach. Bella got to dip her toes in the water and then as a reward for how amazing she did at the session, Cindy threw Bella's favorite ball around for her on the lawn and I got some great action shots of her doing her favorite thing. As the sun went down, we walked back along the harbor and took some silhouette shots of the two of them against the sunset. While we did the session to celebrate Bella, I'm glad Cindy got into a few shots with her. A lot of people are hesitant to take photos with their pup, but I think it's important to showcase the beautiful connection between people and the pets they love. 

After our session, Cindy and I worked closely to put together the perfect album to display her favorite photos from the session, which there were a lot of because Bella did such a great job. The best part was the reveal of her canvas though. Cindy got her favorite shot, a close up of Bella's beautiful face with a focus on her eyes, printed on a 20x30 canvas. Her face when she saw it for the first time is something a photographer lives for. Clients who truly appreciate what I do are the reason I stay so in love with photography and Cindy is one of them. I'm actually going to see her and Bella again later today at my Valentine's Day photo event at Pawcasso in Westhampton Beach. Thank you so much to Cindy for trusting me to create special memories for you! 

Here are some of my favorite shots from our session!

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

12/19/2024

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!
