Please drop me a line! I'd love the opportunity to capture stunning, creative, one-of-a-kind photographic memories of your 4-legged loved ones to treasure in artwork for a lifetime, and show you just what makes the scruffy dog experience second to none.

Ador-a-bull Dog Rescue

so this weekend, instead of walking the poopy-purple carpet at the Winter Woofstock, i opted for hanging out with the good people of Ador-a-bull Dog Rescue and chillin’ with one of their fosters, Quinn…

lots of goodies — for the dogs and for the hoomans — to be bought, with a portion of the proceeds going to help the dogs through Ador-a-bull.   a true representative of the breed, Quinn was an absolute gentleman … greeting all, loving the kids, and really really really wanting to say ‘hi’ to the resident cats who taunted him throughout the afternoon.

thanks, Ador-a-bull peeps, for the incredible work you do.

  • aleksandraQuinn is gorgeous, and his expressions remind me so much of my two pit bulls– my resident dog/love Chick, and his foster sister Lollie.
