Schnauzer Shnuggles ~ Bailey and Diva’s sneak peek

Yesterday afternoon was my last session of 2011 and it was a great way to end an amazing year. I got to spend the afternoon with two adorable schnauzers, Bailey and Diva, and of course, their human, Maryse. We had such a wonderful time walking through the trails around their home in Nepean and these two kept me laughing the whole time!

I just love this sign that’s on the fence to their back yard – so cute!

Introducing Bailey (left) and Diva (right) on their chair. Who are we kidding, every chair is their chair! haha

Bailey is 10 years young and loves playing with his toys outside. Diva is an 8 year old small dog with a big personality and definitely lives up to her name!

Diva kind of liked my treats…

Not to be outdone, Bailey acting cheeky! haha

Some shnuggles with mom.

Love this one. This is at the highest elevated point in Ottawa and boy was it windy up there!

Have a wonderful day,

Puppy Love ~ Cooper’s Sneak Peek

Yesterday afternoon I met up with Cooper and his human, Elizabeth, at Bruce Pit park in Nepean for some running, playing and jumping.

Cooper is a Goldendoodle and at 5 months old, has A LOT of energy. He gets really excited by leaves on the ground, so we had a lot of running around and playing in them.

A few quiet moments relaxing.

May I please have the treat?? Look how good I’m being – I’m sitting like a pro-star!

Cooper is one big muppety goofball and I thought this image really reflected his happiness. Check out his smile!

Taking in the sights and sounds and staying warm in a snazzy sweater.

The aforementioned running and jumping. When Elizabeth suggested a simultaneous jump, I knew we had to try it…and these two were quite the dynamic duo!

Have a wonderful day,

What is black and white (and tan) and cute all over? ~ Bailey, Rascal and Zoë’s Sneak Peek

After having to reschedule once due to dreary weather, I was thrilled to photograph Bailey, Rascal and Zoë yesterday afternoon in the beautiful sunshine and fall weather.

Bailey’s humans, Chelsea and Scott contacted me after seeing Barley’s images on the blog a few weeks ago. Barley and Bailey are best of friends and I guess Barley had been bragging about all those treats he got! haha.

Bailey is a beagle/lab mix and honestly looks like someone took a shrink ray and just shrunk a black lab down to a mini size. She is so tiny, and so very sweet. I had a great time playing with her and getting covered in licks and love.

Meet Bailey.

Teensy tiny shrunk down Bailey.

I think in her previous life, Bailey must have been a bunny rabbit by the way she hopping around the field.

Smiling up at Chelsea.

After we finished playing outside, we headed back to Chelsea and Scott’s place for some shots of their other fur-kids, Rascal and Zoë, who definitely knew how to work it for the camera.

THEN Mom gave Rascal some catnip and all bets were off!

Have a wonderful day,

Lots of animals + an amazing couple = love! ~ Melanie and Jeff’s Sneak Peek

You may remember Melanie and Jeff from their wedding I photographed last year. Melanie emailed me a few months ago with the idea of a “farm session”. Melanie and Jeff live on a farm where Melanie runs a horse camp. I jumped at the idea and we had such a wonderful time yesterday evening.

I got to play with their two dogs, Calvin and Levi as well as Melanie’s horse and saw their sheep, ponies, teensy barn kittens and even some frogs jumping around in the field – it was quite the evening!

Here are way too many sneak peek images, just because I couldn’t choose my favourites!

Meet Levi and Calvin. They are beagles and they are adorable – they just wanted you to know that.

A girl and her horse. Melanie has had McCadden since she was four – McCadden is now 19 years old and is a beautiful sight to see.

Fave.

McCadden really wanted to eat the yummy green grass and was very happy to let me take this shot. She just munched and munched away. This was probably her favourite shot…because I wasn’t trying to make her ignore the delicious grass! haha

Now it’s time for Jeff’s baby, the tractor. I was really excited because I got to ride in it! It’s the first time I’ve ever been in a tractor and it was awesome. We went like 20kph!! haha

I love how the light dances around them in this one.

Have a wonderful day,

I have a new shadow and his name is Barley ~ Barley’s Sneak Peek

This morning I made a new friend. His name is Barley and he was rescued by his humans only two months ago from Big Sky Ranch. In these past months he has come so far and is so well trained – such a big accomplishment for his humans, Ali and Sean.

Barley and I got along really well because he’s cute, and I had treats. haha. But in all seriousness, Barley is one happy pup and I got lots of kisses and pets in on this beautiful fall-ish morning.

Barley loved posing for me. By the end he was doing it all on his own.

Barley told the most hilarious joke here – you just had to be there. haha.

Quite often during dog sessions, the dogs get loose and run to me to get their “reward”. This shot is quite common but I thought this particular one was so funny that I just had to include it in this post.

Have a wonderful day,
