Speaking of animal lovers, we met Andrea & Kent at their house this weekend for their engagement session and met their adorable poodle named Charley. He was very photogenic and ready and willing to be in every shot. 🙂 I promised him I’d make him famous on the blog so here you go Charley!!
Gotta show off the ring from Tiffany’s of course! 😉
John got this shot when Melissa & I weren’t looking….LOL…I LOVED it!! Charley’s collar said “Top Paw” on it. John is becoming quite the photojournalist these days.
And another cute one with a bright pink tongue, I think he was smiling for me. 🙂
Andrea & Kent’s house is gorgeous…hardwood floors throughout and they had this cute little office room upstairs with fabulous window light. We decided to teach them how to dip & kiss for a shot in that room and Charley quickly joined them…apparently, he has a thing for feet so it was only fitting that I got the shot as he started sniffing her feet…he’s so funny…
And one without Charley…(sorry Charley) LOL ….aren’t they HOT together!? 🙂 We actually took this shot in one of their bathrooms. I loved the warm toned wall colors and had to take advantage of that for a few shots…
Then we went outside for some pictures on their porch and Charley was sad he didn’t get to go. John got this shot from inside as we stepped out for a minute. 🙂
LOVED this….even though it was drizzling outside, there were so many trees overhead that we were able to get a few shots before it started to rain again…they are so cute together….
Another favorite…I love angled shots that lead your eye to an off-set subject…it makes the image so much more interesting.
Thanks for a great time you guys! I’m sure everyone will be seeing a lot more of you two in November after the wedding. 🙂

I think a lot of people don't think to do portrait sessions with their pets until after the pet is gone which is so sad. 🙁 Yet for a lot of people, pets are their children so why not get some awesome, adorable pictures of them? As some of you saw last week, my aunt lost one of her dogs unexpectedly to Hemangiosarcoma (a rare form of cancer). Luckily, my aunt is a "picture fanatic" like me and loves to take photos of her furbabies though. 🙂 We had scheduled 2 different photo sessions (one specifically for the dogs and one for her new head shots – but of course, the dogs got their head shots taken too! LOL) as well as a family get together where I brought my camera…and I was so glad I did. Minnie only lived with her for a few short months but by looking at the keepsake album that we put together for her this week, you'd never know it. CLICK HERE to view her awesome album! And if any of you would like to do something similar, email me…you all know how much I LOVE animals and I would love to photograph your pets too. 🙂

Gina is so sweet and we had so much fun at her wedding…she just sent me this e-mail:

"Just wanted to send you a quick note and tell you once again how impressed I am! You did an amazing job. Joe is so happy, I am so happy, mom is so happy & dad is so happy. I really can't tell you enough how amazing of a job you did!!! The album is perfect. You made my wedding memory just perfect!"
