Angel, Bailey, and Charlie | December 2018
Meet Angel, Bailey, and Charlie! These sisters had a family photoshoot this winter. Angel has since gone to doggie heaven - she was 18 years old. Below you’ll see them go from poised to derpy, and everywhere inbetween.

And for some laughs, here’s the girls being super excited for treats!
Dallas DogRRR | Puerto Rico Rescue
In October, a local rescue group, Dallas DogRRR, teamed up with Cloud Nine Rescue Flights to fly in almost 40 dogs from Puerto Rico. Cloud Nine Rescue Flights is an incredible nonprofit that does large-scale long-distance animal rescue. These dogs and puppies were still suffering on the streets and in shelters in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Dallas DogRRR had foster homes lined up for each and every pup. It was wonderful to see so many kind people come together to help these dogs in need! Not only did many of these dogs arrive in very rough shape, but they had just made it through a stressful 5-hour flight. Despite this, each of these sweet, loving dogs was so resilient! Their tails were wagging, kisses were abundant, and even the most timid babies calmed down when they realized they were in a good place. Animal rescue is so important and rewarding, and millions of pets all over the country are without homes. I urge all of you to ADOPT, not shop, for your next best friend!

Cody, Brownie, Milo, & Papi | June 2018
The other day, I had the pleasure of photographing four handsome dog brothers! All four are rescues, and sweet as can be. I had such a blast capturing portraits of each of them. If I could do this every day, I would!
M E E T T H E P U P S !
Brownie - beagle/cattle dog mix
Tons of energy and loves running in the grass. Never forgets to show you his silly, huge tongue.
Papi - chihuahua/dachshund mix - aka a "chiweenie"
The smallest and sweetest boy! Shy at first, but warms up with a gentle approach and some head scratches.
Cody - poodle/schnauzer mix - aka a "schnoodle"
A photogenic boy who knows exactly how beautiful he is! Poses every time, how is he even real?
Milo - long-haired dachshund
Possibly the most majestic weenie dog I've ever seen. Sort of aloof, likes to explore and do his own thing.
Tucker | Turtle Creek, Dallas
Tucker is a gorgeous border collie who was rescued several years ago from League of Animal Protectors in Plano, TX. LAP rescue is a great organization if you're looking to adopt a pet in North Texas - check out their adoptable pets at this link.
Cats of Rome | Largo di Torre Argentina
I recently took a week-long trip to Italy! This is my first of many blog posts to come.
One night, my cousin took me on a walking tour of the city, as she's been studying abroad in Rome for several months. We passed by Largo di Torre Argentina - a square in Rome that contains the remains of four Roman temples and Pompey's Theatre. Julius Ceasar was assassinated at this site, which dates back to 400-300 BC.
Naturally, I couldn't help but notice the influx of cats in this area! Later research led me to find that this area is a sanctuary to 150 homeless cats in Rome. Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary shelters and cares for these cats, thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers.
I had a great time checking out the square, and making a few feline friends while I was at it!
