A Little About Me
Orangeville Pet and Equine Photographer
|
Welcome! I'm Heather and I might just be a little (a lot) animal obsessed.
We'll call it pet-centric. Life for me has always involved animals and I couldn't imagine anything different. My husband and I made Orangeville Ontario our home 9 years ago where we live with our two children and what seems to be their own personal zoo :) A true introvert, I enjoy spending time with my guitars, music, and books.. but you can often find me in front of my photo software with a tea in hand (and likely, a bird on shoulder). |
My story in animals began when my parents adopted our first shelter dog when I was four years old - an energetic mixed breed with a zest for life - which started my lifelong involvement.
This continued with horseback riding as a child and young adult, working years at major pet store chains with reptiles and pocket pets, successfully breeding and showing Flemish Giant rabbits and cavies, completing my certificate in Animal Care, as well as training/grooming/handling Golden Retrievers in conformation shows throughout Southern Ontario... all while growing up with dogs as small as Chihuahuas to as large as Mastiffs.
After photographing newborns and families for years, I am working mainly with my passion of pet portraiture. I still do offer on a limited basis both Newborn and Family sessions.
I am happy and fortunate to merge my understanding and love of animals with the skill of photographic art. Please drop me a line at any time to talk pets and photography - I'm all ears!
