Help-Portrait Day is a national event where photographers give back to their local communities. I specialize in pet portraits, but for Help-Portrait, I enjoy photographing people. My focus this year is LGBT teens. As a mom and sister of members of the LGBT community, I share the anxiety of these turbulent times. A professional portrait is one way to reaffirm the beauty and worth of each one of us, and that’s my gift to you!

Appointments in my Middletown, Ohio studio (Dogpatch Pet Portraits) will last 15 minutes. You will receive a digital file for online sharing and an 8x10 print mailed to your home.
