Jack & Blu

My apologies for my absence! I have a lot going on right now with Cowbelly. I’ll share with you guys as soon as I can, but for now, please enjoy some more images of Jack and Blu, two super fun boys whose shoot fell on one of the nicest days of the year thus far. :-)

poll- are the menu items on cowbelly.com working for you?

I love technology. I really do. But only when it works. It seems some users are reporting problems with the menu items on my website, and I’d love to get your feedback to determine if they are working for you.

I suspect I have had problems for a long time, but couldn’t really investigate further or prove them, because,  unlike what popular opinion says, I am not a web expert. I designed my Cowbelly website using an amazing Photoshop plug-in called Sitegrinder by Media Lab. It allows you to create multi-layered psd files and tag them in such a way that the plug-in spits them out as html code with css files. *Astonishing* if you think about it. (Yes, you CAN design websites in Photoshop). Now, I know my way around some html code,and can update and change html and css as needed in Dreamweaver, but javascript and menus are *way* over my head. 

I have been grappling with the decision to totally change my web style and platform and this may be just the push I need to do it. But before making any kind of big leap, I’d love to get some user feedback on the problem first.

If you would be so kind as to visit my site, http://www.cowbelly.com, and then take this poll, I will send hugs and kisses through the interwebs straight to you! Fergie will be happy too, as it will mean no more mommy swearing at the computer screen. :-)

sun, glorious sun

It has been sunny and BEAUTIFUL in Seattle since Saturday. If I could sum up this past weekend in two images, it would be these two.

More of these guys to come later this week. I’m off to meet some industry friends (@citydogmagazine + @pet_photography) for happy hour in the sunshine! :-)

borrowlenses.com contest winner!

I am thrilled to announce the winner of our fun lens rental contest sponsored by borrowlenses.com.

The winner is……

drumroll please…..

STEPHEN BOBB, of Fidojournalism!

Stephen is a terrifically talented dog photographer in the Washington DC area, and you can bet that whatever shots come from whatever lens he rents will be outstanding. Hopefully he’ll send me a link so I can share them here!

I loved doing this contest so much that there will be more! We are a planning another borrowlenses contest this fall, and other companies will be coming soon.

I will even be giving away Cowbelly products to the winners of some fun challenges.

Keep the blog bookmarked, or better yet, subscribe via RSS so you won’t miss anything.

It’s gorgeously sunny in Seattle and I am taking the rest of the day off, woohoo!! :-)
