Radar, yellow lab - Oakville Dog Photographer

This is Radar.  He's a beautiful yellow lab who is 7 years old.  Radar is a pretty laid back guy who likes to chew sticks.  I love the colour and light in these shots.

This first image is one of my favourites from the session.

Chewing on sticks.

Archie the Jack Russel - Oakville Dog Photographer

This weekend, I had a great session with Archie, a 7 year old Jack Russel Terrier.  Archie loved to run.  And run. And run.  Despite it all, I did manage to get some great shots of him.  I love that he looks happy in pretty much every shot.

I also hope that these images show you that you don't need perfect green grass to do a photo session.  Even with the not-yet-alive grass and the remainders of the fall leaves on the ground, I actually really like how the browns and golds compliment the dog's colour without overpowering them.

Dakota

Here's a couple of images of Dakota.  Isn't she just gorgeous?  And she had the sweetest personality.  She actually reminds me a lot of my old dog Remy - so needless to say, I felt a real connection with her.  Heidi - Thanks again for letting me loose with your pets!  I would love to visit with them again and see just how big Vince gets : )

Tractor Cat

I don't do many photo shoots with cats, but I did come across this pretty girl while photographing Vince and Dakota.  She's a stray that's been hanging around their home.  I found her sleeping in the bucket of a tractor.  I just love the light in the photo and the the fact she was looking straight at me.  

Vince & Dakota

Isn't this little guy the cutest thing ever?  This is Vince.  He's part great dane and I think he's going to be very big!  He has gigantic feet and the sweetest personality.

Here he is with his big sister Dakota.  I was amazed at how well they played together.  Dakota never lost her patience with Vince - even when he was pulling out mouthfuls of her fur. 

Thanks Heidi for a great morning.  Hope you enjoy the photos!

Goldendoodles

This weekend I spent some time photographing 3 goldendoodle puppies named Blitz, Guinness and Cooper.  They were all very energetic but I did manage to get some interesting shots of them.  Here's a couple that caught my eye.

Daisy

Snuck up on Daisy today while she was sunbathing.  Daisy hates having her photo taken and usually runs as soon as she sees me with the camera.  Guess today the spring sunshine outweighed the fear of the camera.

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Dog model update

Thanks for all the interest in the call for dog models. I managed to find what I was looking for and I've got a bunch of great dogs lined up. Watch for some sneak peaks over the next couple of months.

In the meantime, here's a photo of Murphy.  I just love the way his pink tongue is trying to lick the snow off his nose. 

Hopefully, this is the last of the snow we'll see this winter!

Wendall gets his 15 minutes

Macromutt.com is another really neat site that will appeal to the dog lovers out there.  It features a photo a day from various Dog Photographers - myself included!  Today, the site features one of my favourite shots of Wendall the pug.

While you're over on the macromutt site, be sure to check out LickedToys. You're guaranteed to get a chuckle - especially if you have dogs who love their stuffed animals to death!
