They have monthly Beer with your Buddy’s, speed dating with your dog, and next Thursday, they’re putting on Wine and Wag, a fundraiser for Homeward Bound Rescue. (which...

a jump-start on christmas
I had round-two of the Hearing and Service Dogs of MN today, in the studio! They wanted to get some photos to eventually make into a calendar for Christmas, and what better time than now? The pups were actually *more* difficult to work with in the studio than they were outside, but their big buddy,...

hearing and service dogs {puppy time]
I had the wonderful pleasure of heading out to Hearing and Service Dogs of Minnesota this week, to photograph some new puppies that will be going through the program! This organization works with individuals who are deaf, hard-of-hearing or physically disabled, pairing them with dogs specially trained to alert them to important sounds or assist...
a great video
My friend and fellow (and fabulous) dog photographer, Claire Bow (Rouxby) posted this today and I just had to share it. It’s a common-sense, highly informative lesson on interacting with your dog, that all of us should do, but most of us probably don’t. (me included!)
cordelia
The more dachshunds I meet, the more I fall in love with the breed. There’s something very “classic” about them, a quiet dignity that always seems to photograph well. This pretty girl is Cordelia. She was timid about the whole experience, but we definitely got some beautiful photos! I love trying different editing techniques, and...

home for life
I spent some time volunteering with the Home for Life Animal Sanctuary in Wisconsin this past week. This is a wonderful place where animals who cannot, for whatever reason, find a forever home, go to live a quality life with the care they need. There are many elderly and disabled cats and dogs, plus rabbits,...

So, if you’ve been following my blog for a bit, you’ll know that I have a gallery show coming up in June, and have been doing a series of playgroup/mini-sessions with Scoopy Poo. A date has been set! The show will be on Friday, June 26th, so mark your calendars! I’ll put together an invite and...
jager {shop dog}
My good friends at Stunt Puppy and I got together to do some in-store shots of Jager, the Munsterlander. He works at Settergren’s Hardware on 54th and Penn in Minneapolis. (I don’t think they have a website, but be sure to stop by and say hello!) If I lived in that neighborhood (which I actually hope...
