Puppy Love

These darling pups came to their new family terrified because of the conditions in which they had been living.  They are now bonded with their owners and while still shy around strangers, are beginning to relax and come out of their shells.  The consistency and love they are now receiving show what can happen when you give the time and effort. 

If you are looking for a dog or cat to add to the family, please feel free to get in touch with me and I will volunteer my time and energy to help you adopt!  

Traditions

We have loved this family since they came to us when their daughter was born.  They return several times a year for updates and holiday cards and portraits.  The children are sweeties and we have such a good time with them in the studio.  It is an honor and a privilege to be a part of their lives and watch them grow.  Jane and I feel like honorary grandparents! 

Adopt, Do Not Shop

I am not sure if you know, but black dogs are the most overlooked in shelters because they do not show as well under the less than ideal lighting conditions in shelters.  Well, Hailey's mama did not let that stand in her way and adopted this well-behaved cutie.  Adopt, Do Not Shop is the credo for all shelters.  And I will assist anyone who would like to adopt. Just call or e-mail and I will dedicate myself to helping you find a new family member!    

Capture The Moments of Life!!

This loving brother and sisters first came to us when the family gave birth to their little girl-- through the years the two sibs continue to remain close. And we always enjoy updating their heirloom images as they grow up--much too fast!!  

Lucky Pup

There are many blind dogs available for adoption and most people would not even consider this an option.  But Ziggy was a lucky pup, because his family thinks blind dogs are amazing and they continue to help others whose dogs are in the same situation through illness or birth.  Hooray for heroes like this! 

Have Fun Being ONE!

This little munchkin celebrated his first 12 months in the world and we were so happy to create an heirloom portrait for the occasion.  His dads are thilled!

Furry Friends

These three pups were all adopted when they were brought to a kill shelter (at different times) because they were old or sick and their owners no longer wanted to deal with them.  Rbari (Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc--a no-kill shelter), where I volunteer, rescued them, and they all found a forever home with a staff member who takes elderly dogs in and gives them an amazing life for whatever time they have left. She has a most generous heart for all creatures large and small...........
