A little personal project I have been working on, inspired early this year by this post on Rebecca Lansdowne (Art Paw)’s blog. Unlike my normally verbose posts, I will let the images here speak for themselves. (ok, and give you a little info in between).
BTW: my new favorite photo I have ever taken (yes, I said ever) is below. Can you guess which one it is?
That’s Fergie’s tail on the left. “Furr-gee-ee!”
I promise you this shot wasn’t staged (nor cropped). I was just capturing what I was seeing.
Fergie & Jada.
Words cannot express how much I love dogs and graffiti. The combination of both here has me seriously swooning.
Charlie, Seymour. (AKA Chaos and Trouble)
For my pet photographer friends, we were using a reflector under Charlie and Seymour to get some light underneath them.
Jada does cross-eyed so well.
(ok, I can’t contain myself, I will give you a hint on my favorite shot ever taken- I always save the best for last). Can you say WALL-SIZED canvas? WHOOPEE!! I LOVE YOU FERGIE!!

Great work and great post and thanks for the inspiration credit.

Haha, now we are sort of even for mutilating eachother’s last name:)
Last year I posted a couple of fun shots over at Flickr of my Big Tommy in front of graffiti, but I never got this much powerful color from my lens. My favorite here is the one with the fawn pug cropped at the left side of frame.
gorgeous!! the colors are absolutely amazing.
I was going to say the first one of Fergie (in front of the wall) until I got to the last one. Super cool color - it’s a color explosion!
The graffiti shots are AMAZING! I love the color. They’re brilliant! And Jada has the prettiest eyes…
I love the colors of the graffiti! Great idea Jamie! And you are right about the last image making an awesome enlarged canvas!
Woops, sorry Rebecca! fixed.
oh my goodness, these are FABULOUS! how much fun is that wall?? and what better subjects than these pups? GOOD WORK!
Thanks everybody! I will be doing more of these so you will see more on this blog in the future. I have no idea what I’ll do with them, but that’s the fun of personal projects. It’s important to shoot just for oneself from time to time.
Oh…. these photos are so much fun!
They’re all so redonkulously good it was hard to tell which your favorite was! Of course it was one of the Fergiemeister!
I thought “ah-ha!” when I got to the last one, moments before reading that it was the one! Look, a heart above her..your heart dog! I would love to see some of my boy enlarged really big. Man, some of the expressions on the other dogs are hilarious. Those eyes on Jada crack me up! And a puff-cheek pug! ha ha! These are really, really cool Jamie
love…LOVE…the colors!!! Beautiful.
These are soo awesome!! They are definitely meant to be enlarged.
I love the graffiti dog shots. For a number of people sessions I’ve done, I’ve sought out graffiti because I think it looks fabulous. I’ve never photographed a dog in front of it, but I think it’s high time I did. Love the results.
i tried adding comments yesterday… wouldn’t let me?!?!?! but OMG, these are amazing, and miss fergie? your colors look absolutly breathtaking against that backdrop. but i am kinda partial to the snorting dorks in the prior pictures
once again jamie, you have outdone yourself. these are fabulous!
These are amazing. So many of these are incredible.
Love those puppies…. I’m also planning to have a pet dog.
