Forever Sessions
"Love them now. Remember them FOREVER."
Our pets mean the world to us. The fact remains that they are with us for far too short a time, yet they touch our hearts in such a profound way. As photographers we know the power of images. Through tears and the personal loss of our own precious pups, we have created our FOREVER Sessions. Specifically for terminally ill and geriatric pets only, these sessions celebrate the joy and happiness that our beloved pets have brought to our lives. Your pet(s) will always live within your heart. Let us be there quietly and respectfully to capture precious moments resulting in priceless images captured to cherish forever. It will be our honor to be chosen to professionally photograph those final images. We offer these special sessions and beautiful products at reduced rates to insure that all who desire can have this experience.
With much thought and care we have created 3 sessions to select from to appropriately embrace the stage of your pet's life.

Goodbye Session* $250
Our beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog Callie's passing came very unexpectedly. Our girl was not well and had started chemo. But, this particular morning was different. We whisked her off to the vet thinking we'd return home with our girl. It was not to be. The time had come to say Good-bye. We were faced with a scenario, as we are sure many have been, and if not for our daughter's cell phone, we would have no images with our girl in her final moments. We would love to be just a phone call away. To be there for you for your good-bye moments.
