A little history lesson: In 2001, I started competing in agility with my Golden Retriever(s), and while trialing, I saw a need for someone to photograph the competing dog and handler teams. At the time, three other photographers occasionally attended trials to photograph the competition, so one day I picked up my camera and began photographing local trials. It started as a hobby and a way to provide competitors with images that has turned into a 20-plus years of photographing a variety of canine sports from agility to retriever hunt work, flyball, obedience, rally, dock diving, and offering professional portrait sessions. I have had the privilege to photograph local and national events.
My business has evolved and changed, but I still enjoy providing excellent action images of working teams. Early on in my business, I offered proofs on my website, which was searchable by dog name. Who remembers those days?
Unfortunately, in 2016, due to issues with the website provider I was using at the time, I made a decision to remove the proofs from this website. I had thousands of images on my website, too many to move ALL of those proofs to my new proofing website on Shootproof.
To make room for future event proofs and portrait session proofs, I have decided that ALL event proofs before 2020 will be archived offline on July 1, 2025. These proofs will be archived offline and will still be available only upon request.
Are proofs from dog events that I photographed before 2016 still available?
Yes, most older event proofs and portrait session proofs are still accessible. If you are interested in locating older images from past events, contact me with your dog’s name, the event, or the year you competed with your dog.
