i was so excited to receive an invite from a lovely young family to capture their first puppy’s homecoming…and i was in on the surprise too! their two children weren’t expecting Zack, the English Cocker Spaniel puppy, home until the weekend, but mom picked him up a few days early. the look on their faces…especially…




Nina - You captured some fantastic expressions from Zack. What a face! Love, love, love this session. These will be cherished memories for sure. Our black lab is now 16 and very feeble, and I’d give anything to have pictures like this of him as a puppy. The time goes by SO quickly!
Naomi Claire - oh my goodness… SO. ADORABLE. every kid should have a puppy!! the kids will treasure these for life. amazing work, marcia!!
Sandra Magill - Your photos are works of art that will hang in our home for many years to come! Even though Zack is my shadow, each day I see the bond between Olivia & Zack growing. That said Will & Zack have a pretty cool thing going on now too! I know that we will always treasure these moments that you captured and I am so glad we decided to do the session on the day we did!
Tara Enever - i too love these photos. what a lucky puppy zack is and he seems so content! the markings on zacks paws are cool … in the black and white shots, it looks like his feet are muddy! : D
Cynthia Oliver - Such beautiful pictures—So personal and touching. The children, and their intentness in learning who their new puppy is, and loving him so openly from the get go…or so it appears…warms my heart. The puppy on the leather couch, curious about his girl, the kissing, and the tickle face of the beautiful young boy as his puppy nuzzles into his ear are my faves. What a terrific and precious record for this family!
Lydia G - Such beautiful photos – almost made me cry
Danica - Oh, Marcia! I’m a little choked up, too! These are wonderful! Now I want a puppy (rescue folks, do not listen to me. I do not need another puppy).
Laila - these are such precious photos….you really captured the special moments…I can see how you love your work !
Marcy Borelli - OMG!!!! These pictures are so awesome! I am starting to understand why you are so revered!!!
