Bow Wow with Sugar & Belle

Sugar

Belle
We recently had the pleasure of meeting Sugar and Belle for an afternoon photo shoot. Sugar was an "old paw" at having her photo taken, but Belle was anything but "man's best friend." However, with the help of a few squeak toys and lots of attention this beatiful pair produced some outstanding photos. Give us a "bark" to arrange a photo session with your favorite pet. Owners are welcome, too!

Off to see the Wizard

Last night I followed the yellow brick road to the Civic Center Theater and photographed 12 local "munchkins" as they performed on stage with the Broadway cast of the Wizard of Oz.

After tonight...we're not in Peoria anymore, Toto!

Meet The O'Briens
