Newburgh Photo and Frame

It is always such a privilege to be tasked with capturing and preserving important moments in time for people. Whether it’s the joy of a new addition, or a farewell send-off to a dear friend. All of the gratitude to Ashley and Luka for letting me bear witness to and capture a few special moments between them ♥️

Trigger warning: death of a companion animal

Most of my waking hours were spent with Luka by my side. I can count on one hand how many nights I spent away from him over the last several years. That’s more time spent with my dog than any other friend, family member, partner, or human being I know.

Many people may never understand the magnitude of the loss of a dog, and society certainly doesn’t recognize it or talk about it enough. It leaves a gaping hole in your heart and can feel worse than any other death or loss.

I’ve been pretty quiet on this account as I grieve the loss of Luka, but I’m looking forward to opening my calendar again soon and working with all of you. Luka has always been, and continues to be, an inspiration for me in training and working with families and challenging dogs. Stay tuned!

*A huge thank you to Newburgh Photo and Frame for perfectly capturing the essence of Luka and I — happiest in the woods, on a trail 🌲💚

Happy Halloween! Hope your day is extra spooky.

Round one of Easter pup pictures done! 🐰🐣 Thank you Angela for having a dog that is patient enough to sit in a box 😂
