In rural Ontario this morning, we stopped at a local restaurant and found a Toronto Star open to an article about a unique street in downtown Toronto: Draper Street. You may already know that little street located near Spadina and Front, and if you do, you know what a special place it is. I had the […]
I have a nice little arrangement with rescue organization, Adopt-A-Dog / Save-a-Life. Vulnerable local dogs who wouldn’t fare well in a shelter are placed in foster homes until forever homes can be found for them. How lovely is that? The upside to rescue photography: I meet some great local dogs and their generous foster parents; […]
I’m wayyyy behind in blogging. Let’s start with this: if you’ve been following on Facebook you’ll know that in April, I secured accreditation for Canine Photography with the Professional Photographers of Canada .

Who doesn’t love a puppy? Do you remember these little newborn puppies? I went back to photograph them a few short weeks later at Twenty Valley Golden Doodles, and are they ever cute! The first little little sweetheart in this series, with the white blaze on her head and chest, has been named Ginger by her new […]
LeeAnn Deakin, the breeder of our own pup, saw my photos of him and asked if I might photograph some puppies when they turn about 6 weeks old. Of course, I agreed! Then I asked if I could possibly come to photograph them earlier, as I thought it would be so interesting to record them […]
This was a quick little session with my friend’s beautiful boxer named Penny. It was a cold morning, but the scilla were in bloom and I knew her copper fur would stand out beautifully against the blue of the flowering ground cover. Penny was a star, if a little puzzled as to what we […]
