Cheeto is an orange tabby kitten with a big person Cheeto is an orange tabby kitten with a big personality! He was rescued by his mom and dad, and it's clear to see how much they love him. He is very energetic and rambunctious but also loves to nap and snuggle. His favorite things are playing in his tunnels, chasing his butterfly, and catching his mouse. He loves to be in front of a camera, so we had a fun and easy session, especially as far as cats go. Cats, especially, dictate how the session goes and we adapt to whatever they seem to like best. We ended up with some really cute shots of Cheeto!

This session marked a first for me – a together This session marked a first for me – a together session with both a dog and a cat! I was up for the challenge, and we got some really cute family shots of everybody together. Linda and Marcus created some matching collars for both Roxy and Juniper that I absolutely LOVED! Without further ado, let me introduce you to the fur babies! We have Roxy, the Pitbull-mix, who was very food-motivated and cooperated quite well with some tasty bribes. A good treat bag shake by me led to some adorable shots. Then we had Juniper, the gorgeous white and grey cat. As most cat sessions tend to go, she was a little apprehensive of a new person with a big black thing in front of their face. We still managed some cute shots by keeping my distance and letting Juniper get more comfortable in front of the camera. The focus was some group, family-style photos and we definitely achieved that!

The death of a beloved pet is an incredibly sad oc The death of a beloved pet is an incredibly sad occasion. Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 🐾🌈 is the day that we remember the pets that are no longer with us. While the immense pain of losing a pet heals somewhat with time, they are never ever forgotten. It is observed August 28th every year.

Author Deborah Barnes founded Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day in honor of her cat, Mr. Jazz, and as a way for people to share their memories of the pets that they have lost and find comfort in each others shared experience. She shared the journey of letting him go in her book, Purr Prints of the Heart – A Cat’s Tale of Life, Death, and Beyond and the reaction from her readers was so overwhelming, she decided to create the day in his honor as a way for others across the world to share memories of their own pets they had loved and lost.

Pets of all sizes are included whether it’s dogs, cats, hamsters, horses, mice, lizards, snakes, pigs, cows, etc… No pet owner looks forward to the day they have to say goodbye, but remember that you are not alone in your sadness and pet lovers everywhere are here for you in that difficult time.

Today, I invite you to reflect on pets you’ve lost, whether your own, a family member, a friend, or even the pets we’ve come to love on social media. Share stories about and photos of your pets using the hashtag #RainbowBridgeRemembranceDay.

I had the pleasure of photographing Astro, a 15-ye I had the pleasure of photographing Astro, a 15-year-old yellow-brindle hound mix, and Ladybug, a 13-year-old mixed breed. Unfortunately, I have to report that Astro is no longer with us, which is why the post from this session is a bit delayed. His mom described him as a couch potato but a gentle sweetie, as well. His sweet nature and the special bond between him and his mom were evident just in the hour or so that I spent with them. We wanted to get a session in because his mom was worried he might not have a lot of time left. I’m so glad we got our session in and captured some photographs of Astro and Ladybug. Ladybug was a bit standoffish at first, which is totally fine! The pets are the ones in charge of the session and I adapt to whatever they prefer. She did warm up to me and the photo shoot, especially after getting some very delicious treats. It’s never easy hearing one of the pets I’ve photographed has passed, but I am always honored and humbled that I could provide memories that will last forever. To Astro…

Miso is a domestic short hair that was adopted rec Miso is a domestic short hair that was adopted recently and is less than a year old. She is one of the most playful cats I've ever met. She'll even play fetch! She was an absolute ham, and quite the challenge to get her to stay in one spot for too long. That is alright, though; we still got some amazing shots! I especially love the one of her playing on the cat tree.
