Henri & Lola Graffiti Dogs Project

UPDATE 8/4/10: it is with an incredibly heavy heart and tears streaming down my face that I report that Henri died suddenly of heart failure 2 weeks ago. I got word from his mom yesterday, and I can’t wrap words around how deeply sad I am for his parents, and how much I will miss the sweet boy. I can’t believe he’s gone, and it’s just not fair that dogs have to die so young. It’s just not fair. I plan to do a proper memorial post after I get back from my NYC trip (leaving tomorrow AM), so that everyone can give Jerri and her family their well-wishes there. So sorry to be the bearer of bad news. RIP Henri, we love you. Sniff. :-(

=======================================================================

Henri is one of my very favorite models to work with (some of you may remember him from the cover of AAA’s Journey Magazine), and recently he brought his baby sister Lola for me to work with too for a fun Graffiti Dog’s shoot. They were both consummate professionals, and made it far too easy for me to do my job. Thank you Henri & Lola!

One more from my recent Graffiti Dogs Project shoot to whet your whistle! (The title of the post is written on the wall lower left).

Olivia: Graffiti dogs shoot: Harlequin Great Dane

A quick peek at one of my favorite shots from yesterday’s Graffiti Dogs Project shoot with Olivia, the beautiful harlequin Great Dane, owned by my esteemed Seattle colleague and friend, J Nichole Smith, of Dane & Dane Studios fame (Olivia is the Dane & Dane mascot). Our shoot yesterday was, in a word, AWESOME. And Olivia? A Dream.

I promise to post more photos from our shoot soon and give you a behind-the-scenes story, but for now I’ve gotta focus on looking at houses for rent. I’m moving both home and office next month (staying in Seattle of course), and can’t wait to see where I end up. Going to look at an awesome house tomorrow, but it looks like I’ve already got competition. Wish me luck I find the place of Fergie and my dreams!
