Finally! These four, adorable underdogs!
Annie – one of my models – asked me about photographing her dogs. One of them, John Wayne is being featured through a series of children’s books Annie is publishing. I cannot wait to see the books. All of these dogs have been rescued from bad conditions. The stories just break my heart. But, I love that Annie cares enough to adopt instead of buying from breeders. There are so many mutts out there that need good homes and loving hearts to care for them. John Wayne and Miss Puggy are both special needs. John Wayne has just three legs and Miss Puggy is blind. Lily (the little chihuahua) has soft pallette issues and is not the typical, yappy little dog. She just wants a warm place to snuggle and you hardly know she is around.
I’m so excited for Annie and her books. And, I’m even more excited to share a few of the pictures we did. We finally had to move to studio because of all the rain we’ve been having. It proved to be better for wrangling four dogs around. But, it was a lot of fun. I don’t offer studio work for dogs, but am happy to bring my lighting and backdrop to your home if you prefer indoor shoots with your dogs as opposed to outdoor ones. Be sure to click on the “Little Dog Smiled” gallery for more of my dog portraiture in the real world.
That’s Annie & John Wayne.
I don’t remember him barking…but maybe I caught him looking up at Annie. I still love it though!
Lily is the tiniest little chihuahua. She came in wearing her little shabby chic dress on the left there. She’s missing teeth from not being cared for very well…so her tongue sticks out a lot.
Here’s Miss Mo. She will sit still for you so well!
Miss Puggy. The newest rescue. She was going to be put down the day Annie rescued her. She’s blind and has hip problems. She was used to breed puppies, then rescued by an older person who they believe passed away.
OMG – how can you NOT love this shot?
And, a few moreĀ cute ones for good measure.
Dog photography is by far my favorite thing in the world to do!
