Archer and Collins at Vizsla Nationals

I attended Vizsla Nationals this year in WA and had the chance to slip in a photoshoot with Vortex Vizslas. Not only were they both pros at showing, they are beautiful fun dogs that were SO well trained to stay put for photos. Archer and Collins were photographed at a farm they were renting and I was welcomed to bring Whiskey and Bourbon to have a run. W&B even slipped into a couple group dog shots! We all had such a blast and I was so thankful everyone had enough energy to keep shooting until the magical light went away behind the trees.

New Puppy Photography Session in Squamish

One of my favorite things is to take photos of a brand new puppy. The joy! The absolute craziness of shooting puppies is something I specialize in. Families with new puppies should capture their new member as soon as they can because puppies grow up way too fast and it’s quite impossible to take puppy photos without an expert! Shot in Squamish, BC just an hour away from Vancouver, we met for over an hour and got the cutest images of Sencha with her new family. All the high resolution images are included with the shoot but I can also help print photos using a professional printer in the US only accessed by businesses.

Travelling to Vail as a Pet and Family Photographer

Will I travel to shoot your family and pets? Absolutely! I love discovering new places and finding the light in beautiful locations. I’m more than happy to drive for days or fly out of country to shoot something special. If it’s hard to come to me, I’m more than happy to come to you. Shooting pets and family are specialties that can be very hard to find. Outdoor photography is already a pain with the ever changing weather, lighting, and locations so you must be quick on your feet and able to read the light quickly. With dogs, especially two quick moving Vizslas, it can be even harder to capture the right moments!

Most dogs are not trained for photography and may not be comfortable with a camera. The more time we have together, the slower I can introduce the camera and work on training for photos. When I travelled to Vail to shoot a lovely family, I made sure we had many smaller photo sessions as dogs (and humans!) tire of photos quickly. We shot every sunset and sunrise for several days and had a ton of fun doing so! Here are the results,
