Looking Back on a Year with Ringo
It's been a year since I brought Ringo home and I'm celebrating his one year anniversary with this collection of photos from his first year with me. Much has happened in the past year, with Ringo's arrival ultimately reshaping my daily life and my photography.
His severe separation anxiety forced me to stay close to home, grounding me at a time when I was craving more freedom. Working through this issue wasn't a short process; it was many months of slow, incremental progress. Being stuck at home for such a long time meant changing my plans and priorities. It also changed my photography.
Spending more time at home because of Ringo, I began to elevate my photography of everyday life and found joy in capturing my life as it unfolded. My love of dog photography was reignited and reimagined. My photography became more personal, and this personal nature is now what defines and differentiates my style of photography.
In addition to being the most photogenic dog I’ve ever had, Ringo is a natural in front of the camera, frequently luring me in to take shots that he seems to be setting up for me.
Ringo changed my life. I suppose I changed his life too. Happy anniversary Ringo! I'm looking forward to many more years (and photos!) with you. ❤️
