I love my dogs + I love my house = My Vintage Dog Collection
I like to go to thrift stores, antique shows, flea markets, and even the occasional auction in search of vintage dog pieces that speak to me. There is a lot of it out in the world, and not all of it speaks...

Have you ever thought about doing a portrait session in the winter? If not, I think you should! While the flowers of spring, grass of summer, and colors of autumn are all beautiful, I have to say I do love me a wintry scene.
With this in mind, I’m happy to share with you a quick...

No this isn’t a meeting about pugs…although everybody knows I love those little munchkins. PUG stands for Pictage User Group a meeting for professional photographers. Once a month, I host our Central New York PUG, and it’s always fun as well as infomative.
I’m so excited to announce the super-cool-one-and-only Steve DePino will be joining us...

There seems to be a growing number of “Abbys” in my life. While in Los Angeles last week, I ran into the very sweet “Abby” that manages the apartment building I used to live in. I was thrilled when she asked me to photograph her new rescue chihuahua named Nils!
Nils is adorable from every angle! ...

My trip to Los Angeles was fantastic! I got to see some of my favorite people on the planet, eat my favorite foods, and enjoy some warm (sometimes HOT) sunny weather. To top it all off, I had some awesome photo shoots!
The overnight flight home was a little rough. I was pretty out of it...

Having a great time in Los Angeles, and today’s job made it even greater!
How lucky am I to have two dog portrait sessions in one week? Answer: Very lucky!
Here is a cute favorite from the end of our shoot. After a long hard day of modeling, Nils was ready for a nap…
Tomorrow, I’m off to...

I’m in a little bit of weather shock today! Yesterday I was in Central New York with frost on the grass, and a forecast of snow on the way. Today, I’m in Los Angeles where the 80 plus degree weather is feeling like a a fiery inferno!
After our super fun doggy portrait session, Ottis (the...

As promised, a special feature of the darling girl…Greco the Gecko…. sounds a bit like a circus introduction. Well she is certainly colorful enough for a circus…
Greco belongs to Charles who I recently photographed for his senior portrait. I was so smitten with her, I had to do some portraits of her too. I...

My dear friends and clients, Jen and John, said a sad and unexpected farewell to their beloved dog Bear, who recently fell ill and has passed on.
In their honor, I’d like to share some of my favorite photos of Bear. This first shot is a classic example of why we love our pet’s so much…...

Whether you are a small dog or trying to fly out of a large metropolitan airport (read JFK), rainy days can make you blue. I was supposed to fly to Los Angeles today, but because of the very rainy weather, my flight kept getting delayed further and further into the evening. So instead of spending...

It is still cold, cold, cold here in New York; but it still feels like spring is coming, as most of the snow is melting away.
When I stepped out to run some errands, I got this strange feeling that I’m not the only one waiting for spring….

Nanci never set out to own three dogs; but now, I don’t think she could have it any other way. She is the kind of caring person that people reach out to with their unwanted dogs. Lucky for Harry, Bandit, and Brandy, she is the kind of caring person that reaches back to...

This heroic group of professionals provide free...

We are having a real snow storm today! It’s the first one Darla, my pomeranian puppy, has experienced. Franny loves to play in the snow, and it seems that Darla is right in there with her. Even Lulu, the pug, joined in a little game of chase today!
I’m hoping this is an...

Kelly and Bill eloped! So what would have originally been an engagement portrait session, became tagged as post-elopement portraits.
These two are so cute. They are so clearly in love (both with each other, as well as with their sweet dogs Violet and Vita). We had a great time photographing at their house,...
