Officially Voted the Best Pet Photographer in San Diego, 2014-2026.
I met with Ashley this week for an awesome shoot on- well, an undisclosed location :) We had a lot of fun playing with Polkaspot, who’s named for the big brown spot on her back. These photos are actually a gift for Polka’s owner, who happens to be in San Diego with the US military. What a great gift for someone who really deserves it!
Polka was a fun, happy dog to work with- she’s not so great at “stay”, but I’ve never seen a dog that’s quicker at “come here”!
This week I did some advertising work for The Puppy Shop, a store in Cordova Mall that sells pet supplies as well as a large selection of puppies! They specialize in toy breeds, and it definitely shows- stop in and get ready to say “awwww”. And they are fully accredited; no need to worry about disreputable breeders or any similar horror stories. Ask for records of any dog, and they’re handed over willingly, as well as certifications of good health from two different veterinarians! The owner of The Puppy Shop, Tony, has good relationships with trustworthy breeders that go back 10+ years. So if you decide you’ve just got to have a purebred puppy, I highly suggest you pay The Puppy Shop a visit!
I just spent some time tonight with the wonderful owners of these two hilarious dogs, and we had a great time picking out which photos they’re going to order! Charlee is the dapple dachshund, and Toby is the playful mix- they make a funny pair together! Check out these photos from our romp in the yard!
Amber- LOVE the bedspread! Thanks again for letting me use it!
Here are a bunch of photos from my shoot with the super-active Seuss and Nika on Sunday! You can tell they truly love each other; Nika is a pit bull puppy and while she was constantly exploring, she never strayed too far from Seuss the Dalmation- and he definitely watches out for her!
Here are just a few of the pictures- enjoy! And thanks for a great time, Whitney and Morgan!
We had SUCH a fun time today taking pictures with Winston! You’d think with such a refined name, he would have lots of wisdom and inner peace. Instead, he had ENERGY! A Morkie is a mix between a Maltese and a Yorkie, and this little guy has lots of Yorkie features. He’s only thirteen weeks old and weighs one pound- not exactly a heavyweight, but a total pleasure to work with!
