I needed this laugh...


Last Saturday I held pet mini portrait sessions at my studio in Greenwood, Indiana. It was my first day back at work after knee surgery in November and it felt SO GOOD to be back!! My heart needed it in the biggest way. I feel so incredibly lucky to love my job this much.


I had 5 pups and 1 cat come in to see me, so you might imagine that my day was hilariously chaotic. And I don't know about you, but the older I get, the more I prefer pet chaos over people chaos. :) Naturally I want to share some of the funny moments that had me giggling at my computer over the last few days.


If you see your pet here, please know that I 1000% promise we also got perfectly precious photos of your furry baby, so don't worry! These are just the bloopers. And I still think they are perfect! <3
