Janie

Janie, the Belgian Malinois, was my Friday shoot in Austin, the one dry day of the weekend we had there. Janie was *very* camera shy, but I hope these images don’t let that show.

Serious (L). Not serious (R).

Janie’s mom is a dog trainer, and I loved watching their interactions together.

Beautiful dog with cute head tilt in front of purple flowers? Yes please.

Isn’t she gorgeous? I love the coloring of the Malinois.

This next pair of shots just slays me. I nearly choked on my tea when I saw these for the first time. Ahhh, I love wide angle lenses. :-)

Margaret thank you for bringing Janie into the city to have her picture taken and be part of the workshop. I loved working with both of you!

Winnie

Winnie is the very first Swedish Vallhund I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is such a neat little dog, with a very interesting personality.

Winnie was absolutely fascinated by the kayakers going by. It was hilarious.

She and Savannah became best buds, but Winnie wouldn’t quite follow her into the water. Brrr…

I had to capture the girls in action, having a good game of ‘play fight’.

Cheryl thank you so much for braving the rain and coming and bringing Winnie to our Austin workshop shoot. I think based on the shots I got of her and Savannah, she had a blast. I know I did and I hope you did too.

Savannah Brunette

I have decided that dogs named Savannah are awesome. What’s ironic about these two is that they were both our first models to respond to our model call, in entirely different cities. I took statistics in college, and I can tell you that is statistically significant. :-)

Savannah didn’t mind at all that it was raining outside, even going for a dip in Lady Bird Lake.

I *love* these next two shots. There is something about her wet crimped tail fur, and the lush green foliage she is nestled in that leaves me swooning.

Thank you Jake for coming and joining us in Austin and bringing your dearheart of a pup with you. Savannah is such a sweetie and she kept us laughing the whole time.

Ruby

Ruby was one of the sweetest, most well-behaved dogs I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I just wanted to scoop her up and take her home with me. :-)

poor girl. Standing on a soaking wet bench, trying not to slip through the slats. Oh the things we put our dogs through for a good picture. lol

Thank you so much Jessica for bringing Ruby and allowing us to bask in her unflappable optimism for life. :-)
