"This ALMOST didn't happen 😳 This was literally a race against the clock lol. When I was in Dumbo (Brooklyn) this tiny dog waltzed right up to me to say hello. I asked if I could take her photo and her owner Elizabeth graciously said yes. 🙏 The only issue Her uber was coming in a few seconds so I had to be quick. No problem Ill just reach for my checks pockets Somehow my squeaky toy magically disappeared lol. 🙃 No pressure right Luckily this pup was co-operative enough to let me snap her from a few different angles - including a hilarious shot of her sneezing lol.

"Two VERY different Golden Retrievers 😂 I met Lindsey in the Upper East Side of New York City. She was walking two Golden Retrievers Sadie and Leo. But despite them being siblings of the same breed these two pups had two very different personalities. 😂 Sadie is described as a smart ball of light. An angel with a pure soul. 😇 Leo is described as mischievous who will try to get away with anything. 😈 Both of them were adorable though and managed to pose long enough for me to capture their photos. Thank you for letting me take your portraits 🙏 (And sorry for calling you a bull head Leo)"

Funny enough - I was actually in the area to meet up with the team at Sony for a top secret project (stay tuned for that 🤫) but the dog park was right there so naturally I wandered over. Thats where I met Gabby and Alene and their Cavapoos Archie and Bohdi. Cavapoos have that gentle magic. Loyal smart and the kind of friendly that makes strangers feel like friends. Gabby told me Archie is the greatest thing that ever happened to her."

It was clear that Lady was on a mission to hunt squirrels that day so I honestly wasnt sure if I was going to be able to keep her attention long enough to take her photo. 😅 Lady is a bit of a unique mix - half Labradoodle half Old English Sheep Dog. That means shes sociable & outgoing - but also notably independent. And I could see both of those traits at play during the few minutes I spent with her. One minute shes walking right up to make a new friend. The next minute shes willing to run"

"Looking for her Steve 💙 I met this pup in a park in the Upper East Side of Manhattan. She had an Adopt Me vest and the softest eyes so of course I had to stop. Blues Clues is a six years old pittie mix who lives for chicken hates peanut butter and naps like its her full time job. Total under the covers gremlin energy. Her fosters Anamarie (@Accesstobehaviorconsulting) and her husband told me shes the easiest roommate ever. Low maintenance loves people perfect for apartment life. Still working on her excited jumping and dog reactivity but shes trying hard. And honestly she hit the jackpot"

Other times I go out and not a single person says yes. But as much as the rejections suck I try not to let them get to me. Because as soon as someone says YES it makes it all worthwhile.

"WOW. just look at this dog 😍 #streetportraits #dogphotography #sonyalpha I met Jenn and Ray near Jericho Beach and their pup Bea stopped me in my tracks. Shes a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever a very intense name for such a goofy little gremlin. She loves scratching her back on bushes swimming in the ocean and chasing balls. Jenn told me Bea will stare at the fridge for hours if the ball is sitting on top. I was using the @viltroxofficial f/1.8 lens for these so I had to back up reaaaaal far to capture these. But wow I LOVE how they turned out Luckily Bea was a rockstar at posing. Sit."

But in the middle of all the chaos Emily was sitting peacefully in the sun on her work break completely unbothered. I was sweating in a t-shirt and shorts but she looked cool as a cucumber in a neon safety shirt and a hard hat. It was like nothing could shake her calm. Not the heat. Not the noise. Just her the sunshine and Chicken Soup for the Mothers Soul. When I asked if I could take her photo"

My project was just starting to gain traction and I went to a Vintage Car Show at Nostalgia Winery in Oliver BC. And thats when I saw Liz. I loved her look. She was wearing a floral dress with a sunhat. 👒 She even had a vintage-looking Brownie Root Beer to complete the look. But when I asked if I could take her portrait She said she already followed my work 😅 So random that this happened in Oliver BC of all places haha.

"The Sweetest Senior Bull Terrier 🥰 I met Bubba a [--] year old Miniature English Bull Terrier in London UK. I met them as they were walking to Daddy's Japan Soul Food where Bubba gets a little chicken treat each day (she was soooo happy). Daniel has had Bull Terriers in his life since he was a child so when it came time to rescue Bubba Daniel made sure she ended up in the right home. Bubba ended this photoshoot by claiming my arm and giving me kisses. 🥹 Would you stop and say hi to Bubba 🥰 dog photography dog photographer dog portraits dog photos cute dog puppy portraits Street portraits"

"Dog has more style than I do 😂 #dogphotography #bichonfrise #cutedog Dog brings the Holiday Cheer 🎅 When I was in Brooklyn I spotted Jazzy wearing a cute little hat and had to stop to meet her. She's a sassy one-year-old Bichon Poodle mix with serious personality. When I asked Jaleesa what Jazzy has helped her through her answer was simple but powerful: "Sometimes I used to be in such a funk where I just wanted to lay in bed. And she motivates me to get up and do things like feed her walk her play with her." That's what dogs do. They give us purpose on the days when everything feels heavy."

"When the photographer wants to take your photo. 😂 #pitbullmix #dogphotography Its my time to shine ✨ Meet Nicole and Stella - an 8-year-old rescue with the sweetest underbite and the calmest demeanor ever. When I asked to take her photo Stella just stood there patiently waiting while I fumbled with my camera settings. 😅 "She's very patient. She's chill." And Nicole wasn't wrong Most dogs would've gotten restless but not Stella. She just stood there like a professional model waiting for me to figure out what was wrong with my gear. When I finally got it working she gave me the most gentle"

Found a Real Guardian Angel 🥹💛 #Dachshund #longhairedDachshund #seniordog #dogphotography This Dachshund has a guardian angel 💛 After a long day of snapping photos I took the subway back from Brooklyn to the Upper East Side.
