Every photo here is from a real session: real people, real pets, and the quiet, quirky, or joyful moments in between. You’ll see a little bit of everything, from muddy paws and zoomies to gentle cuddles on the couch. This is where you get to see what I see: personality, connection, and a story waiting to be told.

This is a mix of pet portraits, family sessions, and some of the work that’s won awards over the years. It’s not posed perfection: it’s honest, relaxed, and true to who they are.
