I have a couple of familiar faces for you to see today! Regular blog readers might remember Emma & Chloe, from their outdoor photo session in Rancho Santa Fe back in April. Well, the product collection that their parents picked out included a future photo session, and since we spent their first session around their house & neighborhood, they decided it’d be a nice change of pace to visit the studio this time! So we had a great second photo session together!

One of the goals for this session was to get a bigger variety of images for Emma & Chloe’s premium album, which I’ll be designing for their parents very soon. So we tested their obedience here in the studio, with plenty of sit-stays and down-stays. The girls did great – even Emma the puppy, who at only 14 months old, is already bigger than her 5-year-old sister Chloe! (She was much smaller back in April!) Emma definitely had plenty of energy, and at times wanted to run around like we were outside again, but she was so happy to sit for treats that we were able to get a few relatively-calm-looking photos too, haha! :)

Here’s Emma, the “puppy”. This photo is a great example of why I love studio photos of dogs: they’re just simple. All the focus is on how beautiful the dog is, and there aren’t any extra environmental elements that might be distracting or cluttering up the image. It’s simply your dog, in all her beauty.

This is Chloe, her older sister. She’s a gorgeous dog.

 
Ray & Monica, I’m excited to see you both back in the studio again! Thanks for all the extra playtime with your pups! :)
 

First of all: these are two adorable English bulldogs, and if you recognize them, don’t tell their father about their photo session! Delilah & Bella’s mom organized this session as a surprise for their dad’s birthday; little does he know, in a few weeks he’s going to go out for a nice night with his wife, but before dinner, they’re stopping by the studio to see all the photos of their dogs! How fun is that?! It’s going to be a huge surprise, so if you know these pups, don’t mention anything to their dad! :)

Delilah & Bella are two sweet English bulldogs with huge, matching underbites that would make a dentist cringe. (Bella’s is so big that her tongue permanently hangs out the side of her mouth!) But don’t worry; they’re perfectly healthy and their underbites only add to their charm. At 8 years old, Delilah is a bit more content to sit (or lay) as close to her people as possible. Bella, who’s 4 years old, has a bit more energy to run around & explore her surroundings – but let’s be honest, their favorite thing to do is always just relax! They are English bulldogs, after all! So for our photo session, we definitely tuckered them out, asking them to pose on the backdrop for us… but I’m loving how their images turned out, so all that exercise was definitely worth it. :)

This is Delilah! Isn’t she just beautiful? I love her smile!

And this is Bella – such a happy dog!

And here they are, posing for the cutest Christmas card I’ve ever seen. I mean… really. Reindeer ears. They’re just too much! :)

Jen, it was so much fun meeting you & your girls! I’m so excited to reveal our surprise to your hubby soon! :)
