Savannah’s shoot took place in Atlanta at the Centennial Olympic Park, and ended with a dip in one of their beautiful blue pools. She cracked me up afterward by rolling on the ground, something she apparently does whenever she gets wet. Savannah is awesome.
Thank you Alissa for coming and bringing Savannah for all of us to photograph. She was an absolute joy and I know everyone loved her.
Olive and Daisy were so fun to work with. Olive wasn’t so sure about the camera, but Daisy was hamming it up for everyone. We even got some great shots of the whole family.
This next shot cracks me up. Look at the look on Daisy’s face. LOL.
Thank you Tiffany for bringing your girls for us to photograph in Atlanta. I had a great time and I hope they did too!
Mouton and Chevre were also accidental models. Their dad Mark works for a french winery, and as a thank you for photographing his boys and sending him prints, he sent me an incredibly generous gift of wine. 8 bottles to be exact, including two bottles of my very favorite- dry sparking white wine, which were deliciously enjoyed this week on my editorial trip to the mountains. In the hot tub no less. Thank you Mark, you are amazing!
I spoke french to the boys while I was shooting them, and you know what? I think they actually understood me. 
Mouton means ’sheep’ and chevre is ‘cheese’.
Some of you may remember Spirit from her photo here a few posts back, that also serves as the avatar for the Cowbelly fan page on facebook. She is the sweetest, cutest older pooch I have ever had the pleasure of working with. And her brother Dingo is pretty rad too.
Whoever said dogs don’t smile probably also thinks the earth is flat.
Dingo has the coolest collar. I love it.
Thank you Donna for coming and joining us in Atlanta. I had a fabulous time with your kids. Prints to come very soon!
I’ve been super busy lately, as anyone who follows me on twitter or facebook knows. I’ve been trying furiously to catch up with regular clients, editing images and placing orders, starting on new art commissions and working with return clients. I also just got back from a 3 day trip out of town and off the grid for a fun editorial project you will see more of soon. Because of all of these things, I’ve had little time to blog. So I’m now embarrasingly behind in posting these images, but better late than never, right? I do hope you will agree. As it’s my mission to honor each pet I photograph, I will introduce you to each dog I met in Atlanta and Austin, then catch you up with what’s going on now.
This is Rocco. He was first in our series of dog models in Atlanta last month. He had a full fledged photo shoot on a dry Friday afternoon. So. Cute.
We shot at this great park in downtown Atlanta: Centennial Olympic Park. There were these cool waterfall things, which were perfect to cool off in during the hot day.
I’m a big fan of showing dogs smiling from the nose up, if you can’t tell.
This next pair of shots gives me warm fuzzies inside. Love. them. Love Rocco. Loved this session. Swear to god I have the best job in the world.
Thank you Melissa for bringing Rocco and sharing his joy for life with us. He is such a special little guy and I was lucky to have been able to work with him!
