Hey all! I’m opening up a deal for $150 ANY SESSION, 30 min! This is to raise some funds to get my pup an appointment and towards any treatment they are able to do❤️

My pup made it through her surgery, but the fight’s not over for us. Her tumor is still growing back, quickly…. And I’d love to take her to Purdue in Chicago to see a specialist and determine if radiation or anything is an option for her❤️

Whether it’s a mini newborn shoot, maternity, or family… they’re just $150! Comment below or message me to book!

If you don’t need photos and just want to donate to her care, here is our gofundme❤️ we appreciate everything!❤️ https://gofund.me/b864796db

Hi everyone! I wanted to come to Facebook to kind of give some long life updates and why I haven’t been too active!

There have been a ton of changes within my personal life/family/household that has really forced me to be home with my family. We have had many losses over even just the last month, and I almost had the biggest one yet yesterday.

As many of you know, I rescued a pup from south suburban humane society last year, and I’ve posted about her story along the way. I took her to the vet Monday, as her tumor was growing so rapidly and I knew her surgeries were going to come faster. What didn’t expect was to hear that this next surgery may be her last. They were worried that they wouldn’t have enough healthy skin to close her incisions, and at that point the pain would be too much if I were to wake her up. They told me that I may have to make the decision to let her go.

I had been back and forth, spiraling and trying to find an oncologist to go to for a specialized exam… but her tumor was growing so fast, I was racing with it. I had decided to schedule the surgery for yesterday, and made the best of Wednesday I could. We got a pup cup, went to The Wildflower Farm to pick Zinnias together, and scheduled a photoshoot for that evening at the beach… It was going to be her first time going, I really wanted her to experience it. But the weather had other plans. It was a DOWNPOUR. I was panicking, and my family was helping me come up with indoor ideas… and luckily…. We Set the Scene came to the rescue and opened up some slots for us.

The photoshoot was amazing, beautiful, VERY emotional, and I couldn’t have asked for a better last day with my girl. Then Thursday came. I was a mess…. Until my mom got the call from the vet. She was okay, they closed the incision. She was alive.

I could not me any more grateful for everyone in my life for making this happen for us, for those who booked sessions with me to help with her vet care… thank you.

Long story short, I want to remind you all that life is more than work. It’s moments with the ones you love. It’s the act of loving those close to you, the bonds you create, and time. The memories you make are worth more than anything else we have.

Zinnia is far from cured, but she’s here with me now and I’m so grateful for more time with my girl.
If you made it this long, thank you so much for reading. And thank you to my friend Caroline for taking these photos for us😭❤️ they’re PERFECT!
