Awards & Recognition

While awards are never why I photograph pets, they are a wonderful reminder that the moments I create for my clients are recognized around the world.

I'm honored to have been awarded a Gold Medal in the Pets & Domestic Animals category at the 2026 Professional Photographers of America International Photographic Competition, one of the world's most respected photography competitions.

As an internationally award-winning pet photographer, Master Photographer, and Accredited Professional of Animal Imagery, I'm passionate about creating portraits that celebrate the unique personality of every pet.

​

While awards are a wonderful recognition of my work, what matters most to me is creating portraits that make you smile every time you see them.

Why Awards Matter

Not because awards make me a better photographer...

...but because they challenge me to keep learning, growing, and refining my craft, so every client benefits from that experience.

Some of my Award-Winning Images

Every pet deserves their moment to shine

I'd love to create something just as special for yours.

Rikke is masterful with her camera and letting the pets be who they are to get representative photos of their personality. The end products were incredible!

Rikke worked super well with my dog. The photos were absolutely adorable! I will cherish them forever. I wish I had bought more!!

I really enjoyed watching Rikke photograph my sweet girl. She was able to get her in positions that you wanted. She really spent time with her.
