Isabel Carter

I love working with the talented young people that go through the Company of Rogues classes. They have a focus that is rare, and are just so much fun to shoot! Isabel was no exception and I love the final shots that we got! Thanks so much for a fun shoot - and break a leg out there!

Lauren

We connect to each other in so many different ways. Through our voices, our words and our images, we forge bridges to one another. I am always so touched when I am asked to help the connection through images.  This session with Lauren was a birthday present for her fiancee and we had a blast shooting it. Here are a few of our fave images!

Cole Vandale

Cole has a fabulous burgeoning career, and I was pleased to be chosen to do his new headshots. We laughed - a lot and these are the shots that came out of it! Look for Cole on Hell on Wheels as well as other projects.

 

 

 

Jessie on AARCS

I saw a sneak peek of Jessie before I met her, and fell in love with her markings! She is puppy through and through and I loved all her puppy kisses and nibbles. Her profile is on AARCS, but here is a preview.  Please help her find her amazing Fur-Ever home!

Hello! My name is Jessie and I am an 8 week old bull terrier X. My mom was rescued right before I was born. Me and all my litter mates got to spend the first 8 weeks together with mom in a very loving home. Now that we are older we are ready to find a family to call our own.

I love to cuddle! I hope you don’t mind because I plan on being a lap dog forever! This has been very easy so far considering how cute I am. I mean really, look at this little wrinkly face, how can you resist me. 

My foster parents say I am a great little pup. I haven’t had an accident in the house yet…although they do put me outside every hour…I don’t ever have a second to even try and pee on their carpet. They even wake me up in the middle of the night to take me outside, come on now…let a girl sleep! I do have a ton of energy around 6:00AM so I hope you are ready to start your day. My foster mom has been taking me to work every day and I sure love meeting everyone and all their dogs. When they do leave me at home they put me in this contraption called a crate…I cry for a little while but eventually just fall asleep!
I really can’t wait to meet my furever family so hurry up and apply to adopt me.
See you soon, 
Jessie

Diana Polowick

I had so much fun with Diana when she came in for her headshots.  It is always nice to help someone recognize their good qualities and Diana looks gorgeous.  Here are our faves! I love the range we got!

 

 

 

Bella - AARCS

 Sweet ball of fluff, shy but transforming, reaching out a paw - ready to be loved.  This is Bella. :)

Bella was surrendered from a home that had 7 female cats and she was highly stressed and withdrawn when she first came to AARCS.
Since being in a foster home – Bella has made huge progress. For the first few weeks – she hid and did not allow anyone to touch her. Now she has learned to trust and loves to be petted and tickled under the chin. She is a very gentle cat and although she may be a little shy at first – once she realizes she is not in danger – she loves to follow you around ​ and be fussed over.
Bella has got a long with all the other cats in the home – and currently lives in a home with a Golden Retriever. Bella would do best in a home that is not really noisy – as she tends to like quiet and calm! If you are looking to give a home to gentle, loving cat – come visit Bella.

Journey - AARCS

Many of you may have seen the story about Journey on the news a few weeks ago. It touched my heart, but when I met him, he stole it completely! You would never know what he has gone through - a gentle, sweet and lovely puppy.  Here's his story - Journey is available for adoption on the AARCS site.

 

Hi everyone! My name is Journey. I had a rough start at life, I was found in a leg hold trap but some amazing people came to my rescue. It hasn’t taken me long to feel better with all the love I’ve received.
Did I mention, I love people! I can’t stop wagging my tail! I wiggle with excitement constantly. Will you be the one to give me my fill of belly rubs??
I live with a dog they call, “Sykes” she is so much fun to play with. I like the little chihuahua to but he doesn’t want to play. The cats are comical when they spit at me but who would want to play with someone who spits at you anyway.
I love to go on walks with my foster mom and dad, I’m still learning why I can't pull on the leash. My recall is pretty good but I mostly follow Sykes lead.
I’m kennel trained, I sleep through the night and I’m very consistent with my house training, I’m super smart! I’m learning sit and lay down but make sure you have treats on hand.
I’m just waiting for a family to give my love and companionship too. I’m a fun loving, heart melting guy that will be at your side. Can’t wait to meet my furever family, love Journey.

Q

Q has this awesome habit of sleeping in the middle of the room in a pose of supreme confidence - splayed on her back, regardless of what is going on around her.  So when Lori asked me to capture it, I was completely up for the challenge!  These canvases all make up a wall grouping and are going to look amazing when they are hung.
Enjoy!

Arden

This piece is a composite image that I created from our awesome session last year on the Kathryn fields.  Isn't Arden one of the most beautiful dogs? And I had so much fun creating this canvas for Shannon that captured her in action in so many lovely ways.

Blake at 2 months

Squishiest and sweetest baby ever (well since CJ anyway!!!!).  Blake is my beautiful nephew and has the most beautiful soul.  I was going back through some shoots and found these from last year when he was two months old. They were so lovely to revisit, that I had to share them. This year has gone by so quickly, and he is walking and saying NO to everything...he's a little person, with his own personality.  I love every stage he is in as it's all fresh and new.  But it is also lovely to remember the squishy baby side too. Love you Blake!

AARCS - Bowser

The many situations that dogs who are rescued from by AARCS come from are truly heartbreaking.  This is especially the case with Bowser.  This dog is so sweet and truly deserves a loving home. He touched my heart and I hope he quickly find a home to bring out the best in him and make him feel safe. In the meantime, he is with the best foster parents possible. This is Bowser- his profile says it all!

 Hello! My name is Bowser. I’m an extra large guy with a heart to match. When rescuers came to find me I had a leash embedded around my neck and was tied up outside. The vet carefully cut the leash off of me and I have never felt so good. I then made the trek into Calgary to start a whole new life.

I was pretty shut down when I first got here. Didn’t really know what was happening. My foster parents tried to get me in their house for 2 hours. I had never been in a house before and didn’t want to get in trouble. Once I realized I was allowed in, I never looked back. I love snuggling and just hanging out. I get along great with all the resident dogs and the cat. I wouldn’t mind being in a house with other animals or just by myself. As long as I get lots of love from my family I will be happy forever.

My foster mom always tells me how great I am on the leash. I don’t get why she is so impressed…it’s not rocket science. I do tend to get a little stressed on car rides but I am working on that. I like to play with my foster parents but don’t quite know how to play with the other dogs here. They just seem to jump around in circles….I would rather lay and get a belly rub!

If you have room for me in your family please fill out an application today. I know you will fall in love with me the moment you see me.
