Hi, I am Michelle and I want to get to know you.


Do you have a furry family member that you treat like your child? Do you spoil them like you would any other child? Do you have a phone full of pictures of them but no pictures of them on your walls. I understand you. I am also a pet parent, I have two cats that run our house, they lay wherever they please, they are the center of our household, along with the lizard that is my sons.


Secondly, did you just receive bad news that your furry family member does not have much time left? Do you not know what to do, how you will keep their memory alive after they are gone, since they have always been the center of attention. I know exactly how you feel. I used to have a yellow lab/German Shepard that we lost way back in 2019. She was the canter of out house once her brother our Black Lab/Vishla passed several years earlier. I did not kwon what we were going to do after she was gone, the kids were young and did not understand what was going on. Since I am a photographer the first thing I thought of when I got the news that we did not have much time left with her was to go out and take some family photos with her, my husband and our three kids. It was the best thing we could do, we celebrated her and also now have lasting memories of her.


Lastly, I have three kids that are just continuing to get bigger, can you relate to that. They are all athletes, the oldest is a gymnast and the boys both do karate and play soccer. As they have gotten older they have been to many different sports picture day and all the pictures look the same. Do you have the same feeling about your kids

I have a very active sports family, from gymnastics, to soccer and also karate. throw in theater and band I keep a busy schedule but since my schedule is busy I can understand how hard it is for you to find the time for professional portraits.

These are our furry family members, Pearl and Picachu. They keep me on my toes but are a joy. I know you fell the same about your furry family members.
