Senior Dog Thor and Family Portrait Session - Whetstone Park of Roses - Columbus, Ohio

Senior Dog Thor and Family Portrait Session - Whetstone Park of Roses - Columbus, Ohio

It was such an honor to capture senior dog Thor with his family! We had a wonderful time working with the Moeller family to highlight their sweet dog, Thor and capture them all together at the Park of Roses in Columbus, Ohio. For so many of our clients, their dogs are more than a pet, they are truly part of the family. It’s one of my greatest honors to make sure they are captured as the important family member they are in photographs you’ll treasure for all time.

Family and Dog-Friendly - Holiday Mini Sessions - Columbus, Ohio

We had so much fun kicking off the holiday season during our Holiday Mini Sessions! A huge thank you to all of our clients and their dogs who attended! It’s always such an honor to capture our clients’ families and their furry companions. Our Holiday Mini Sessions were dog-friendly and specially designed for families, children, couples, and pets. This year we partnered with a local studio space in Grove City, Ohio to set-up 3 unique backdrop options in a dog-friendly, indoor environment. This year’s backdrops included: Snowy Bridge, Holiday Sparkle, and Cozy Christmas. We had a blast working with our clients, their pets, and their children during their sessions and are so pleased with the final images!

Spring Family & Pet Portrait Session - Puppy Dog In-Home Portraits - Columbus, Ohio

Spring Family & Pet Portrait Session - Puppy Dog In-Home Portraits - Columbus, Ohio

I love all dogs, but it’s hard not to melt when meeting a new puppy! I recently had the honor of capturing Yorkie puppy Teeghan and his siblings Piper, Fozzie, and Bennie with their moms, Ashley and Steph. Teeghan had just been welcomed home the week before his portrait session and Ashley wanted to make sure that he got his ‘close-up’ while he was still a young pup! I’m so glad we were able to capture him with my camera when I did, as he’s been growing fast!

It was such a treat to photograph them at their home. In-home sessions are an incredible way of capturing your loved ones somewhere that is special to you and to make a new memory in your home! Pets are a such an important part of the family, and it’s always an honor to capture them as a family member, not just a pet. We made some great photographs of the dogs, as well as with their person.

Baby Daniel and Family Portraits - In-Home Session - Columbus, Ohio

Hello Baby Daniel! There’s always something magical about capturing little ones! I had the honor of photographing Daniel and his family in the comfort of their home, during an in-home portrait session earlier this spring. Daniel was about 6 weeks old for the session and his personality and curiosity for the world was starting to shine through.
