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.

Rosco the Newfoundland Dog at Angel Mist Antiques in Albert County
I photographed Rosco, the chocolate Newfoundland dog in the autumn leaves for my Tails of the Chocolate River book. This beautiful boy has quite a story, so buckle up!
Here’s Rosco’s “tail”, in the words of his person, Stacey:
"Rosco is a Newfoundland dog. He joined our family at the young age of 3 weeks old when I fostered him and his nine siblings. It was love at first sight.
"Unfortunately Rosco was diagnosed with a severe genetic hip disorder in both hips at 7 months old. He underwent two major surgeries to completely remove both hip joints. His recovery was not going well and we were facing the possibility of losing him unless we could locate some hydrotherapy services, which were not available in our area.
