Also, she cannot run on anything but iced coffee & italian sweet cream.
Angela is a mom to her 10 year old daughter. her sassy, sweet, Mini Her, isabella. When Bella was born & throughout her early years of growing, the amount of photos Angela took of her was priceless. And to some, even unbelievable. And every photo taken would be cherished, every single one. No matter the moment, big or small…it needed to be frozen. Time is a thief. She knew days would come that looking back at those photos would be everything. And Bella sure was/is her mom’s biggest fan. always the best model! She has the same love for the camera too. Always asking to take the shot first.
Being a mom is Angela’s number one job. Angela was blessed to be a stay at home mom for the first early years and cherished it. She was able to start her business on the side and be there for all things bella as she grew. A dream for a new mom. Bella Bug Photography began in 2015, completely inspired by her.
look at those little adorable faces! angela loves her maltese, all 3 that is! Who doesn’t love puppies?
First came Barkley in 2013 when bella was born. then came bailey in 2018 because we needed a playmate. And well then came lots of puppies. Angela has spent lots of time raising the most perfect maltese and carefully selecting new loving homes for each of them. it has been such a joy to see her puppies thriving & spreading around so much love & happiness. Barkley & Bailey were the best doggie parents and visit with their kids often! They also happily accepted that one of their kids was not moving out and they would forever have a Brooklyn girl with them too. angela’s 3 fur babies will happily know when you are here! but no worries, they are well behaved and enjoy their yard to themselves while angela is working in the studio. feel free to ask to play with them though. they are quite the attention seekers and love seeing new faces.
