East Lansing AKC Dog Show
What a wonderful way to spend a weekend! Leo, our youngest Spinoni, and I got to spend some time at an AKC All Breed Dog Show.
Loves of my Life
As jealous as my Spinoni Italiano get when I come home from a pet photography shoot with the scent of another dog on me, I think inside they must rejoice that they are not yet again the main subjects. My Spinoni Italiano are so patient and kind with their crazy camera obsessed mother! Today Leo and Tessie were both beyond wonderful as I
The Twos Have It
We were warned early on that Spinoni don't really "turn on" until there two. Well, our first is just now turning two and by golly, she seems to have matured over night.

The Back Home Edits
I love to edit on the road, to still have the feel of the place in my blood while working the images. However, it is often the ones I work on when I get back to the studio that are dearest to me. I am often too in the moment to see the completed image in my head when I am on the road. Knowing
