Sometimes you just need a photoshoot on the fly, and that's just the scenario we had going into this session. Rain is a purebred Border Terrier who excels at many CKC events, including Conformation (she holds both her AKC and CKC Championship) and Lure Coursing. Due to an eventful show weekend, Rain was in tip top shape, groomed to perfection, and her owner was hoping that I could capture some shots of her in all her glory. It was a windy and blustery day where we parked ourselves out in the middle of an open field. The end result was worth not being able to feel my fingers while operating the camera! Rain's owner was exceptionally thrilled with her images and even had one printed out on a blanket.

This is Rain and her buddy, doing what they do best!

I am happy to announce that I will not be offering monthly model calls to purebreds, rescues, and mixed breeds to have their session at no cost (products and packages optional separately).

Eligible breeds will be posted to my email subscribers first, and then later announced publicly.

Please see my Breed of the Month page for more information and to submit your entry!

​TIMING IS EVERYTHING
A well-exercised pet is often the most easiest to work with, so keep this in mind when planning photos. Avoid asking much of your dog on a very hot, sunny, or windy day. Dogs often do better than us in the winter months compared to the summer, and snow is a beautiful, although challenging shooting situation. 

Be aware of the special needs of your individual pet: flat-faced (Brachycephalic) dogs need special consideration in the heat, short, single-coated dogs need consideration in the cold. Certain pets, like guinea pigs, do well in only specific climate conditions.

Quick Tip: Keep your finger on the shutter so you're ready. "You snooze, you lose!" rings true when photographing moving creatures!

I hope you find some of these tips useful!
