Dogs & Ice Cream 2024 Calendar — Beloved Pet & Equine Photography - Pet photographer Richmond VA Colorful photos of dogs eating ice cream

There are only a couple spots left. Don't miss your chance! This years Discover Photography Workshop starts in a couple of weeks. Registration closes on Friday April 14. This workshop is special because we focus on your goals (hence why there is limited registration... it will be you and 4-5 others.) Hands on is the best way to learn. Having a community to connect with is too. You can invest in fancy equipment and spend hours learning online. But that still doesn't guarantee you will get your questions answered (in a timely manner or at all) or truly improve your craft. Ten years of photography teaching experience has taught me that in order to grow, you need to push yourself out of your comfort zone. So, are you ready to grow and become the photographer you want t be? I'd love to help you!

Imagine the feeling: You come to a small group workshop. You connect with a community, get your questions answered, have hands on practice and are now part of a lifetime community where you can keep asking questions, join meetups, participate in challenges and more. What better way to improve your photography?

Registration for the Fall Discover Photography Workshop is open until Friday (currently there are only 2 spots left) And I only offer this once a year!

Let's work together to better our craft! I would love to see you there.

(side note... think about this: photography is expensive and we all have limited time. Investing in learning goes a long way. Instead of wasting time and money trying to find the right resources or investing in new equipment, invest in learning specific to you and your goals. Learn to make the most of the gear you have. And, let me do all of the hard work for you!)

Happy 4th of July! I hope everyone has fun today. These pictures are from North Myrtle beach 2019. The day of the 4th and the day after. While fireworks are beautiful and fun and an American tradition, they can also be harmful to wildlife. Birds see the shiny metal pieces and eat them. Other debris litter waterways. Let's have fun and celebrate but also be responsible and clean up.

There are 2 more days left to register for my July workshop! If you’re local to RVA and have been looking for a way to improve your photography and a local group to plug in with (we do Meetup’s, photo challenges, critiques etc.) even after the workshop is done, then this is for you!

Resealia descends the staircase at Currituck Beach in Corolla, Outer Banks, NC. The only unpainted brick lighthouse in the Outer Banks, it stands at 162 feet tall with 220 steps to the top.

If you visit the outer banks of NC and drive north on route 12 you will come to a place where the pavement turns into sand. This is northern Corolla. It's here that people live and vacation on roadways made of sand. There is no pavement in sight, yet this is still a state road. This is also where the wild horses of Corolla cal home. They spend a lot of time in marshes on the sound side of this barrier island. But, if you're lucky you may spot them on the beach escaping the bugs in the marshes.

The Masters of Foxhounds Association located in Middleburg VA is known for their hounds as well as their events, which bring people to the small town in Va. This year they hosted their first annual Dog Daze event; a celebration of the working dog. The event featured demonstrations from groups such as search and rescue, police dogs, retrieving and herding.

This is the last year that Love Ewe Farms in Montpelier VA will be raising lambs. Since retiring for the last several years Betsy and her husband Kevin started raising Romney Sheep. Romney sheep are a hard working breed with a calm temperament. This spring they had a set of twins among several other lambs.
