About Us

BellaHara North takes pride in being unique and down to earth.  Having grown up on a ranch, I have been around animals most of my life.   I sincerely believe that it is my God given right to own animals.  I also believe that with that ownership comes the responsibility to be a good stewards to those animals.  Along with an eagerness to educate others with a common sense approach to true country living.  Australian Shepherd with Goat

There was I time in my life when I did not have any animals around me and I always felt like something was missing.  Now I am again surrounded by them and happier than I had even been in their absents.  Animals are my life first and then all my other passions come next. I have many interests.   One is doing our best to maintain what we consider the best breed of dog ever,  the incredible versatile Australian Shepherd.  Besides living and working with our beloved Aussies we have goats, cattle, horses, an assortment of fowl and of course cats, which are many times subjects of Artwork and photographs we have done.  

Senior portrait
Portrait Photography is passion of mine.  From a very young age I didn't like having my photo taken, so my mother gave me the camera.  The ecstasy I find when behind the camera is almost unexplainable.  I specializing in outdoor portrait photography.  I truly love photographing people outside in the "sweet light" of the early morning or very late afternoon.  I can do indoor portraits with the controlled light, but I findWedding Photgraphy being outdoors much more enjoyable.  

We do Wedding Photography as well. To capture the magic of your wedding day! To create works of art; we use a camera. If you remember the old saying, "time is money," we feel those two things should be furthest from your mind on your wedding day and as a wedding gift from us, you will receive five (5) FREE Wedding DVDs.    The level of our envelopment depends on you as it is your day.  We do not believe that the photographer should charge by the hour when it comes to weddings, as it is not up to the us to set the schedule of your day. We are willing to assist in keeping the flow of things moving according to your pre-chosen time frame, but never make you feel rushed or hurried on this day.  Therefore our pricing is a breakdown of cost per segment and rather or not you choose only “still” photography and/or videography.

Our Artwork ranges from photographs and watercolor paintings to Folk Art projects such as toothbrush rag rugs, and many of our creations are for sale. 

Living off the land such as making cheese from Besty the cow and Charlette the goat are just two more things we greatly enjoy here at Bella Hara .  We also try and grow a garden every year and put up plenty of jams and jellies made from what ever "local" fruits are available each year.

We are eager to learn from and teach others new things.  Please feel free to contact us or send any questions or comments you may have via the E-Mail listed on the contact form.
