Working with animals can be challenging, especially in a tight timeframe, but we did it! We had four different "stations" to rotate through for different looks, and the results have been amazing.

It's been a great opportunity to get back to my roots. My business name, 7 to 1 Photography, comes from "7 dog years to every human year," and when I started photography nearly 10 years ago, I began as a pet photographer.

Very quickly, my work expanded to include events, content, branding, commercial, family, and much more. However, this year, I am actively seeking more balance in my life and taking on projects that fill my emotional cup. So, I'll be doing more pet and animal photography—how could you not feel happy looking at gorgeous faces like these?
