Sneak Peek!

Sorry that this sneak peek is so late. I actually emailed the photos to their mom, since she is overseas in Afghanistan right now... but then I had a couple people ask about the sessions and I realized I never posted on the blog!

Tally and Moe!

Mumsford!
 

Scooter!

Oliver!


Angus!
Angus didn't like me when I first walked into his house... but after a couple treats, he became my new best friend! It was hard to take photos of anyone else... he kept walking in front of the camera and posing! : )
 

Boo's Sneak Peek!

Boo is a 9 year old Boston Terrier with the energy of a pup! She's a beautiful girl who gives sweet kisses and loves, loves, loves her blue racquetball ball! I have the feeling she can entertain herself for hours with that ball. At one point, Boo would get the ball in her mouth and squeeze just hard enough that it would literally "pop" out and bounce around the room... and she would chase it and start over again! It was hilarious and she would have entertained ME for hours too!

Here are a few of my favorites from this weekend!
Boo, very focused... on the ball in my hand!


Boo looking deceptively relaxed in her window seat... still focused on the ball in my hand!


I love Boo's crazy teeth!


Hanging out in the front yard... can you guess what she is focused on?


Who can resist a cute lil' Boston hiney?!


Finally! Boo has her ball!! : )

Jackson and Cali's Sneak Peek

Sunday was a gorgeous morning and I got to spend time with Jackson, an adorable three year old puggle, and Cali, a gorgeous four year old boston/beagle mix. Not only are they best buds and inseparable but they also brought their mom and dad together too! What a perfect lil family!


We started off at Mickler Beach and it was so much fun to watch the pups frolic about.
Cali:

Jackson:


Cali wants her ball... love how her tongue is just poking out!

And Jackson wants my squeaky dino cuz. Everyone loves a cuz!


Jackson poses pretty:

LOVE Cali's ears!


After the beach, we headed over to the doggie park to continue the fun!
Jackson bringing in a tennis ball:

And still wanting the dino cuz!


Cali sitting pretty!


And the two pups hanging out before the day was over. I bet those two had a nice nap when they got home! : )

Dogwood Park

I joined a few of my friends on an afternoon outing to Dogwood Park yesterday. It had finally warmed up a bit here despite being super windy. Of course I had to take the new 10-22mm lens out to see what I could get!

The very first shot of the day was Indie who has recently found a super mommy! Indie was abused in her former home but once she warms up to you a bit, she is such a sweetie!


Indie loves pinecones. I attempted to pick it up and throw it for her a couple times... I don't know how she was carrying it around - it was sharp!


On the left is Lucky, Jr. He's Professor's godson... you may remember when he was just a pup. Not anymore!
And on the right is a doggie I don't know... but she was so cute! This was the first time I saw her put that bumper down so I threw it for her (after I got the shot first of course) and ended up with mud splattered all over my face. Never go to the dogpark and expect to leave clean! : )


I kept seeing Bruiser the bulldog throughout the afternoon. Here is he chillin' on a chair with his ball!


As we were leaving I made some new friends! On the left is the schnauzer puppy I wanted to grab up and run away with (and my feet). She was soooo cute! She's on the right too with her mom and dad in the background. They have 17 doggies at home... and she's a pet photographer too!


And I leave you with three of the 17 siblings (only four were at the park yesterday)... they are walkin' like they should be in a movie! This shot totally reminds me of a scene from Reservoir Dogs... and a similar scene in Swingers too!

Daisy and Guido!!

Daisy and Guido (if you click that link, just scroll to the bottom for the sneak peek!) are my neighbor's dogs. I LOVE them! Daisy is a super sweetie pie and Guido is the most energetic ball of fur EVER!
We like to tease Professor and Daisy that they are a couple... hee hee.
And Max and Guido love to chase each other around by the pond... until Max is naughty and runs into the water!

So I ran into Daisy and Guido one afternoon while I was out taking pictures of Professor so of course I had to get some shots of them as well! In fact, Daisy is now on my website. She is the link to enter the photo cart for dogs!

Anyway, these photos are LONG overdue!
I played around with them tonight and practiced leash removal on a few!
The gorgeous Daisy and Guido BEFORE:

Guido BEFORE and AFTER:


And Daisy with her ring!!


This is the look you get from Daisy when she wants you to play with her and the ring...


But this is what happens when you try to oblige!


Ugh! I have a bunch more of Daisy with the ring that I want to share but I have GOT to go finish cleaning the kitchen. My parents arrive in town tomorrow and my sister and her husband fly in on Wednesday! Eeeeck!
So this will have to do for now but I hope you enjoyed Daisy and Guido even a smidgen as much as I do! : )

Happy Holidays!

Egret and Professor and Sneak Peek... OH MY!

This morning I woke up to fog...
Our apartment is in the back of our complex in the corner... next to lots of trees and a pond. We seriously have the best view ever from our third floor balcony.
So I was getting ready for work and looking out the window to see if my ducks were waiting to be fed and I saw this egret.
You know what I had to do!
Check out this great series!








Then this afternoon when I got home from work, I noticed the light was really warm and pretty. I grabbed Professor since he is the one who will walk with me without a leash and we headed out. This particular shot doesn't really show off the gorgeous orange-y light but it is the one that, when I was flipping through the shots with my husband, made us both immediately say awwwww out loud. I'll share the others later.


And last but DEFINTELY not least, while I was out with Prof... we ran into my neighbor who was out with her two very fun dogs. She was out chatting with another neighbor so we had a mini photo session right then and there. I can't WAIT to show you the rest of the photos... but here's your sneak peek!
