Honored & Grateful: Kirkland Pet Photographer Featured in Canvas Rebel
I am thrilled to share that I was recently featured in Canvas Rebel in their “Meet” / “The Story Behind Your Mission” series.
This feature is more than just a spotlight, it is a reminder of how far the journey has brought me and how many stories still lie ahead. (canvasrebel.com)
“I first picked up a camera in 2009 to capture my soul dog, the one who carried me through seasons of my life with a love so steady it felt like home.”
A Glimpse into My Journey
In the article, I reflect on how photography first entered my life in 2009, how I picked up a camera to capture my soul dog, and from there everything unfolded. It was never just about images. It was about memory, vulnerability, connection, and the deeper stories that lie beneath the surface. Over time, I have grown to see my work not just as art but as a bridge: between people, between emotions, between the seen and unseen.
I also share how mission and meaning guide my work, the “why” behind every frame, the motivation that pushes me forward even when the path gets rocky, and the desire to show other people what is possible.
What This Means to Me
Being featured by Canvas Rebel is an honor and a moment to pause and reflect. It reminds me:
That every creative step, no matter how small, contributes to a bigger story
That sharing vulnerabilities invites connection, not weakness
That spotlight moments are opportunities to lift others up too
I hope this feature allows readers to see not just the polished images or the end product but the heart, the challenges, and the growth. I also hope it encourages someone else, whether you are an artist, entrepreneur, or dreamer, to believe in your journey, to trust your voice, and to keep creating even when it feels uncertain.
Thank You and What’s Next
Thank you to the team at Canvas Rebel for giving space to my story and to everyone who has supported me along the way: clients, collaborators, family, friends, and followers. Your belief fuels me.
If you are curious to read the full article, you can find it on Canvas Rebel’s site under “The Story Behind Your Mission.”

Here is to telling the stories that matter.
