… I managed to get a shot of Kyla enjoying the beautiful weather.

I decided to convert her to a warm black and white using Gradient Map in Photoshop.

First up: Annie. Queen of the household.

Sweet Little Cody. Does this kid love his dog, or what? This is one of those images that makes me take a breath when I see it. You can just feel the moment between them.

Feisty Chloe. Fun. Food Motivated Obsessed. Snorty.

Scrappy Holly. We’ll see more of her later.

And the best for last: the infamous frog costume. Really, folks. Does it get any better than this?

Ok so I know the doggie pics have been EXTREMELY limited lately. It’s slowed down for me considerably, but it’s ok because school just started up again, and the kitchen remodel is underway.

The new cabinets are in. Just got the new countertops installed this morning. A thing of beauty.

If you are in the market for new tops, I suggest you look at quartz. Just look at how gorgeous these are!

I got word today that the Fourth Annual Free to Live Golf Tournament yesterday was a huge success!

Thanks to everyone who participated.

And a big congrats to Maynard and Deanya Britten for winning a free basic session with yours truly! I am excited to meet your furry friend and will contact you soon to schedule!

Any golfers out there?

I will be participating in the Fourth Annual Free to Live Golf Tournament by way of silent auction: one free Basic Session. This event will take place at Oak Tree Golf and Country Club in Edmond and will benefit Free to Live, an animal sanctuary located in Edmond.

I feel fortunate to have a small part in this prestigious event and hope you’ll come out to golf, eat, drink and put in those bids!

As most photographers are, I am scared of being in front of the camera.

Sometimes when I’m feeling brave (and if it’s a good hair and makeup day) I pull out the flash and sit in front of a white door as a reflector and shoot away.

Most of the shots are nightmares. Some not so much.

I had my hair “did” today for a wedding I was attending, so thought I would capture the rare moment of curls.

Got a new white rug for my bathroom the other day.

Or is it Blue’s new rug? I never can tell…

Kyla is thinking about starting a twitter account. Let her know what you think in the comment box!

Today was all about the press. We had Channel 9 over this morning for a story on The Rescued and my photography, and this afternoon I headed over to the Oklahoman to be a guest on the Petshow Podcast.

So, local readers: tune in or set your DVR for tomorrow evening at 6pm on Channel 9.

Everyone can hear the podcast now (just scroll all the way to the bottom on the left for the podcast box, and while you’re there check out the articles above the podcast – you’ll see a familiar name and face there, too).

And coming soon I’ll post some of the “fake” photos I took this morning of Kyla and Abby with Channel 9 – they are some of the funniest images I’ve gotten yet!

Notice the ears.

Note to self: sleep on your left side more often.

If you can’t laugh at yourself….
