Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog. This is where I will be sharing content that interests me as an artist, designer and dog trainer. If you don’t know me, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Miranda Estep and I’m an artist and a designer. I started out with a pen and pencil, like most do, but soon moved behind a lens. Because of my background in traditional media, I tend to focus on similar elements when taking photographs or filming – light versus shadow and the way they define form. My personal design aesthetic is influenced heavily by nature while remaining simple and organized. I strive to design solutions that best meet the needs of my client while maintaining my core values of innovation, integrity and environmental sustainability. My long term aspirations are to work full-time as a designer and to give back through charitable work for animal welfare organizations.
In my free time I hang out with my 3 year old Australian Cattle Dog, Jolene. She is the star of most of my photos and is what got me involved with the dog community online.

Not only do I take photos of Jolene, but we train together, specializing in trick training with a goal of moving into competition agility. I’m also passionate about canine nutrition, behavior and minimizing the environmental impact of domestic animals.
On this blog I plan to share ongoing design projects I’m working on, as well as dog related topics like well designed products, nutrition and training. If you’re into dogs and design, then this is the blog for you. I look forward to you joining us on our journey this year.
-Miranda
