Ava {Pet Portraits}

What a beauty!! Ava was rescued by her mommy Lark from a pretty bad situation and thank goodness! What a great dog and what a gorgeous breed, the Siberian Husky. While Ava had a few moments where she couldn't sit still (and what dog doesn't?), she is such a sweetheart and I loved working with her and Lark today.

Dogs are so funny. I can sit there and make every obscene noise in the book and jump up and down and not have them flinch. But god forbid someone (a stranger, or someone they haven't seen yet) walks by or says one word, they all dart their faces in that direction...haha..I think it's hysterical. I've joked with the past two clients how I'm going to start hiring the bystanders to dart out at any given moment to get the dog to look in the right direction! lol. As for this session, we didn't need to come to that...Ava was very patient and I got a lot of great shots this afternoon. Here are a handful of my faves!

For this first photo, I just want to make it a point to say that I have not touched this photo with any editing software, well besides my tag on it, but that's it! I just wanted the raw image straight from the camera to give you the most crystal clear idea of just how beautiful this dog is.


Here is Ava and her mommy Lark!


Say hello to some gorgeous Christmas cards!




Just stunning!


I am so thankful for all of the photo opportunities I have had in the past few months. I want to thank Lark and Ava for spending a somewhat chilly afternoon with me. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and Christmas cards and photos to remember!!
