{Full of Grace}

May 27, 2008

I met Grace this past Saturday at my new studio in Winter Park (more on that later). I saw instantly that she was not only a beauty, but also a total sweetheart. Grace comes with the kind of story I *love* to hear: she was on her last days at the dog shelter when her mom fell in love and took her home. Grace now has the best life — has lots of love and gives lots of love. Because of all she’s been through, she is also very shy and not too crazy about my camera and having to have her photograph taken. But, with the help of Grace’s mom and her friend, we managed to convince Grace that getting your photo taken isn’t such a bad thing. In fact, it often means some really yummy liver treats as part of the deal!

Meet Grace:

Stay tuned for more news on my Winter Park studio. I’m planning some really fun stuff for kids, families and dogs, so be sure to check back!

{Cuteness x100}

April 25, 2008

The other day I had the pleasure of meeting the owners of Laurel Wynd in Ormond Beach, FL. They are breeders of West Highland Terriers. Not only are they some of the nicest people I’ve met, but their puppies are CUTE, CUTE, CUTE. Their latest litter of 5 puppies were ready for their photo shoot. With the help of several people (you just cannot imagine what was going on in the background as these photos were taken! ha!), we were able to capture the adorable nature of these puppies.

Just after our session, this was taken minutes before they were all sound asleep.

April 15, 2008

I had so much fun visiting with these sweet dogs last week. I promised mom a sneak peek last week, but didn’t get to it until today (sorry for the delay!)

Adopt-a-thon 2008

April 3, 2008

The next few posts are going to be dedicated to the wonderful pets available at the Orange County Animal Services Adopt-a-Thon this Saturday from 10am – 2pm. I was over at the facilities the other day to photograph a few of the adorable cats and dogs available. In yesterday’s post, I shared 3 of the dogs I met. I’ve got 3 more dogs to share with you and 4 cats.

Here is one of the most adorable and animated cats I’ve met in a while. Look at this sweetheart!

What are you doing Saturday from 10am – 2pm? How about meeting me at the Orange County Animal Services Adopt-a-thon at 2768 Conroy Road, Orlando (across from Ikea). There will be food, drinks, music, prizes, workshops and much more. I’m working with them this year to help them get some really wonderful cats and dogs adopted.

The other day, we did a photo session with 10 cats and dogs that are waiting to be adopted. If you are interested in a new pet, you really need to check these great pets out. I can assure you that each one I met was absolutely wonderful!

Also, if you adopt an animal from Orange County Animal Services on Saturday, you’ll be entered in a raffle to win a dog (or cat) photography session with me! For more information, visit their website at www.ocnetpets.com.

Here are a few of the ADORABLE dogs I met this week. They are all available for adoption.
