Profile

I started out by taking snapshots of my dog and soon fell in love with photography. Even though I now take all kinds of photos, pet photography is still my strength. I think my photos have grown from snapshots to creative portraits that capture the pet’s expressions and bring out his/her personality (either through posed shots or through candid shots). I like using different angles and coming up with interesting compositions.

I have two gorgeous models: my dog Odie and my cat Billie. I adopted Odie from Michigan Humane Society. Billie was a stray. Not only are they beautiful and expressive, but they also have wonderful personalities. I strongly believe that rescue cats and dogs make excellent pets. I also take photos of other people’s pets.

Other kinds of photography I’m interested in are:
Moody/atmospheric photos
Nature photography

I use three different cameras:

Pentax K10D
Sony H-2
and a Fuji F30
