Over half of the photo sessions I do are what I call “Memory Sessions”. These sessions are for senior and “terminally pets”. It may sound sad, but they are actually more of a “celebration” of our pets. The vineyard is my favorite place to do these – a perfect spot for dogs to explore and not very many distractions. I had 3 of these sessions so far for July, and 2 more coming up for this week. It’s been a very emotional month. I do shed a lot of tears, but beautiful memories are created. These sessions warm my heart and I’m grateful to be able to offer them to my clients. I thought I’d introduce you to Ivy, Daphne, and siblings Samson and Delilah. We all had some beautiful blooms for our vineyard sessions!
What sweet pups. I love that you’re creating these keepsakes for their families.
What a beautiful location and love your ‘memory sessions’!
Stunning area for photos. Glad you are doing “memory sessions.” These photos you showed are gorgeous.
Stunning grounds for taking photos. Glad you are doing “Memory Sessions”. Photos you showed of the dogs are stunning.
That is such a wonderful location to be able to photograph at – it’s beautiful! I will say, I am glad it is still dark here at 5:30 – I can’t imagine being out and getting ready to do a photo shoot at 5am! Wonderful photos and models – Memory sessions are so wonderful, but I am also sure they are hard on all the humans.
If I have to crawl over broken glass to get a photography session with my dog done here with you, I will.
I’m glad I’m not the only one that cries at other people’s memory sessions (and viewing appointments); it’s been an emotional few weeks for me too, it seems like a particularly bad year loosing so many special pets.
