Dog Costume Ideas – Top Dog Barkery

11.01.17

Pet Store Halloween Party and Costume Contest – Huntington Beach

Top Dog Barkery held it’s annual Halloween Costume Contest and party at their newest store in Huntington Beach. We set up a cute background in the doggy daycare room for the dogs (and their owners) to take a quick photo while they were at the party! The $15 donation will go to local pet rescues and each person receives a free 5×7 print. We have worked with this amazing pet bakery in the past and were so excited to be part of this event! Be sure to check out some of the cutest doggy costumes we have ever seen below! What a great place to discover dog costume ideas for Halloween.

Simple Sophistication

We are on Instagram

Two years old looks very different than one, and that is exactly why it matters.

By age two, their personality is fully showing up. The expressions, the movement, the little quirks that disappear before you even realize it. These sessions are less about props and more about capturing who they are becoming. Let us know if you want to book a studio session today 💕

How do you prepare to say goodbye for two years?

This family has six boys, and one was about to leave for Finland on his mission. They scheduled this session a few weeks before he left, knowing how important it was to have everyone together in one place before such a big change.

These are the photos that hold so much weight later on. Not because everything is perfect, but because everyone is there. If you are heading into a season of transition, this is your reminder to pause and document it.

Have you documented this stage yet?

Sitting up sessions are one of my favorites. We started with family, then slowed things down and focused on baby’s expressions and personality. Simple backgrounds, no distractions, just this moment in time.

Have you ever noticed how the most meaningful moments don’t need much at all?
The power was out in the church during this baptism, which made everything feel quieter and more intentional. Just family, faith, and a moment that truly mattered. Sometimes simplicity has a way of stripping things back to what is most important.

Who says Christmas photos have to be serious?

This family showed up in red, brought the energy, and leaned fully into the fun. The funny poses, the laughs, and the personalities are exactly what made this session feel so them. These are the photos you smile at every time you walk by them.
