Dog Photographer Erin Vey bio picture

Meet Erin Vey

I am a dog lover first.

A photographer second.

By some random chance of fate, I was able to combine the two loves into the coolest job ever: A Dog Photographer

I grew up in a family where dogs were always an integral part of our lives and most importantly, members of the family. Most of my childhood was spent with various Basset Hounds of the lovable but extremely stubborn variety. We never had less than 2 at any given time, sometimes 3, and the occasional stray that one of us would bring home for a visit.

After a short stint doing portrait work, which I still love, I realized my true calling is capturing the essence and personality of dogs. Upon reflection, I feel that my time doing portrait work was not wasted. Because of it, my experience with portrait work flows beautifully into working with people and their dogs.

My husband and I are owned by the fabulous Miss Gracie, a 5 year old Great Dane who brings energy and life into our house. You’ll see her around here a lot, she loves having her portrait taken (at least I like to think so).  She is a complete Diva and if you stick around long enough, you'll know what I'm talking about!

What an amazing adventure this has been so far. I’m so glad you are here experiencing it with me.

She...

Sweetness

Maggie is, of course, the sweetest gift we’ve ever received. But to see my two girls together hanging out so peacefully sure is a close second :) Gracie makes an excellent Boppy!

My Spot

Last night we were too lazy to carry Maggie up to her room for a nap so we just let her nap on the couch. Unfortunately we set her down in “Gracie’s spot”. About 10 minutes into her nap Gracie kept hovering over the spot and driving me crazy. I looked at her and said...

Life

Life has been such a blur the last few weeks. Part of me can’t believe that it has almost been a month with Maggie and the other part of me can’t believe it hasn’t been 3 years. I feel like I’ve entered a secret club of some sort with a sick and twisted initiation ritual...
