For as long as I can remember, my life has revolved around caring for companion animals and nurturing the bonds they share with their human families - first as a vet tech, now as a pet photographer. This blog is where I will feature my fave pet photo sessions, share pet tips - including how to take better photos of your own pet, home decor and pet photo display ideas, news, updates, special events, and probably a lot of rambling about dogs and how awesome they are.

2020 Photographic Artist of the Year
I’m still a little stunned to announce that I have won the title of Professional Photographers of Canada Atlantic Region Photographic Artist of the Year for third year in a row! In addition, I also took home the Bruce Berry Award for Best General Print, 3 Best in Class Awards in the Fine Art, Pictorial/Floral, and Animals categories, AND all 3 of those images were selected for Judge’s Choice ribbons as well.
Photographic Artist of the Year 2019
I was so deeply honoured to win the title of Photographic Artist of the Year in the Professional Photographers of Canada - Atlantic Region Image Competition for the second year in a row. I also received the Best Animal award for my portrait of a bear in Kouchiboujouac National Park, titled “Bear Necessity”, and the Best Fine Art Award for my image “Reclaimed Wood”, of a well know abandoned house in Shepody, NB. My winning entry was completed by “The B’ys By the Bay”, a portrait of 3 Newfoundland dogs, and “Lobster Fleet Launch”, showing fireworks over the lobster boats in Alma, NB.
Photographic Artist of the Year 2018
The Atlantic Region of Professional Photographers of Canada held their annual image competition recently, and I took home a bunch of awards, including Photographic Artist of the Year! I also won the Bruce Berry Award for Best Overall Print, Best Pictorial/Floral, Best Fine Art, and 2 Judge’s Choice awards. What a night to remember! (And I sure was glad I didn’t wear heels).
