the true meaning of Catch it in the moment

“The Story of Joey & Me — Catching Every Moment”

From the moment I met Joey, something clicked. He wasn’t just a dog — he was my shadow, my comfort, and my constant. Through the highs and the heartbreaks, Joey stood by me with those soulful eyes and wagging tail, reminding me that love doesn’t need words, just presence.

When life felt heavy, it was Joey who nudged me out the door, nudged me forward, and reminded me to notice the little things — the way the sunlight danced through the trees, the way he chased leaves like they were treasures. It was through his eyes that I learned to appreciate the beauty in fleeting moments.

That inspiration grew into something bigger than I ever expected. I wanted others to feel what Joey made me feel — pure connection, raw joy, and unconditional love. And so, Catch It in the Moment was born.

With the help of my incredible family, we took an old, broken-down horse barn and transformed it into a beautiful, welcoming pet photography studio. Every brush stroke, every nail hammered, and every corner cleaned was done with love — and Joey was there for it all, lying nearby with a tail wag or a curious nose, as if giving his silent approval.

What started as a dream grew into a calling: to capture the bond between pets and their people. Just like Joey did for me, I wanted to help others remember that love is found in the everyday — in a glance, a lick, a cuddle.

Today, every photo I take is in honor of that journey. Of Joey. Of love that never lets go. Because we’re not just snapping pictures — we’re catching moments that matter.

Catch It in the Moment isn’t just a business. It’s a tribute. To a dog who showed me the meaning of loyalty, to a family who helped build a dream, and to every pet who’s ever loved without limits.

And Joey? He’s still right here — in my heart, in every frame, in every moment I catch.
