Firstly, I'm a lot like you.  I'm a working woman, with a crazy-busy life and a mild coffee addiction (Go Local, Little Green Bean Coffee, SkatePark Grind is my fav!).  I love, love, love my dogs and cats.  I also love to putter in my garden and go on beach sunset walkies almost daily. When I can remember to stop working,

I love what I do, but I hate it when I miss a sunset!

 

And, like many women, I struggle with how fast time seems to fly by. That’s one of the reasons I’m so in love with photography. It lets me freeze all those beautiful moments that whiz by too fast! And so, when a client tells me, ‘I just want to get some portraits taken before he loses that puppy face. Or, ‘I can’t believe how fast my little fuzzy girl is growing!’ I totally get it. Or, "He's getting up there in years and his muzzle is turning white", I get that, too. And I especially get it when someone says, ‘I feel awful—it’s been six years since our last family photo! And we've never had one with our pets!"  :(

 

So call me. We’ll plan your session, we’ll have a great time, and you’ll love your pets pawtraits! 707.888.0828 & 510.862.4649

 

What?  You want to know more? Alrighty then!

 

I'm also an Internationally Award Winning and Published Photographer, who has loved, & been loved by, animals of all types since before I can remember.  

 

My first dog was a German Shepard named "Blitz" and since we were both wee 8 week old pups, my mom put her in the crib with me, and so my first dog and I bonded before I could even walk or talk.  I've always had Dogs, Cats, Horses, Ferrets, Rabbits, Hamsters, Mice, Fish, Birds. . As a 'tween, I began rescuing animals & finding them homes.  I have always been a passionate advocate for both animals and the environment.

 

Animals have big eyes, big hearts and loving souls. They can tell when a human is relaxed, happy and loves being around them. They connect with me and respond with their whole heart.  I adore seeing that joy in their eyes and sharing my vision of them with you, because I understand just how much they mean to you.

 

Currently, I share my life happily with my dogs Leonardo Da Doggio & Brigitte Barkdot and my three kittehs; Degas, Henri Meowtisse and Enya. Rescues all!  

 

My second great love since aged eleven has always been photography.  My Personal Motto is: 

​

It's all about the Light.  The Light Within and the Light Without.  

​

 

Having been a Professional Photographer since 2001, I've worked at a variety of National studios; Where

I first learned to hone my craft and skills.  For You. I also LOVE making people and animals smile.. but, want to know what's even better?  When they cry tears of joy seeing my photographs.  Trust me, that never gets old.

 

Yes, It's true. I am the Happiest, Most Blessed Person. I get to Follow My Passions!  & Because I love what I do and do it well, my clients and subjects have a great time and love their pawtraits even more!   So, when you're ready for those pawtraits you've always dreamed of, and ONLY if you're ready to have fun, contact me today!
