About

You know you’re a dog mom when you’re late to work because your dog is napping on you and dog hair coats your work pants like confetti.

Your mornings are crazy – rushing around the house to get ready for the day, taking care of your dog, bundling up your kids and trying to get them to school before heading to your 9-to-5. It’s a lot to keep straight!

You finally get home from your hectic day to find your pup excitedly greeting you at the door. It’s the highlight of your day knowing he is always there with a happy welcome no matter how your day has gone.

You take him for a walk with the kids that evening after dinner. You finally wrangle the kids to sleep and plop down on the couch with a glass of wine. Your furry friend climbs up on the couch and snuggles next to you. You start to feel yourself unwind and your mind starts to calm as you pet his soft head.

You can’t imagine life without him. You’ve noticed the gray speckles starting to appear on his muzzle and around his eyes. You realize that you have hundreds of blurry photos of him on your phone, but you don’t have anything you would want to hang on your wall or put on your nightstand.

This is where I come in to help busy dog moms like you.

I photograph busy dog moms like you.

about us

Hi, I’m Christy, and I have been serving busy dog moms in southeast Michigan and the Lansing area who want gorgeous, colorful photos with their furry best friend since 2016. In fact, Peerspace named me one of the top Metro Detroit pet photographers in November 2019! I am based in Howell, so my sessions take place around Metro Detroit and the Lansing area.

I specialize in capturing family photos with your pets. In an era where most photographers focus on pet or family photography, I’m the photographer that wants to capture heart-bursting photos of you, your dog(s) AND the rest of your family (significant other and/or kids)! All in one fun session.

As a mom to a toddler, newborn and her two furry best friends, I have the patience and expertise to photograph your entire family. Toddler meltdowns and high-energy dogs don’t scare me.

I use natural light photography to capture the personality and beauty of each dog to provide my clients with one-of-a-kind colorful portraits. You can view my portfolio to see examples of my work.
