AT GRANDMA’S HOUSE

Hermione has been chillin’ at her Grandma’s house while Matt and I are in Europe.  She will no doubt return to us demanding organic satin sheet sets, peanut butter dog treats by the pound, and relaxing massages before bedtime.

Spoiled.  Rotten.

DEVON VETERINARY HOSPITAL

Devon Veterinary Hospital has just created a stunning remodel and asked me to show it off a bit. Check out the custom tilework, that gorgeous entryway fountain, and all the little touches that only pet lovers would think of including. (Essential Imagery’s pet photography also graces the walls of their new facility.)

Stop by their Open House on August 1st from Noon to 4 to see everything for yourself!

I WOULD NEVER GET ANYTHING DONE IF I HAD KIDS.

Having a dog is bad enough.

Hermione is my first dog.  She fascinates me. Love that big block of nose in this shot, and that little touch of fur in focus.

EVAN, THE PROFESSOR.

Evan is a lovely mutt who lived for TWO full years in a no-kill shelter before his Mama found him and swooped him up.  I wouldn’t have been surprised if he had uncorked a bottle of red wine and started discussing Dickens’ finest novels.  Evan needs a pipe as well, ’cause he’s just too sophisticated for dog toys and jumping about like a silly old canine.

He sits with his arms crossed ever-so-gently, too.

MISSY THE WONDER DOG

Missy is a downright lovable German Shepherd hailing from Malvern.  She enjoys blue toys, long naps on the porch, and mothering everyone she meets.  Her owner describes her as being on her “last legs” due to an incredibly long list of medical ailments, but Missy perked up and played with me for the duration of our portrait session.

There’s so much spirit in those big eyes of hers…


Love her ears and her paws in this feisty little number…
Since Missy and I became fast friends, she let me climb over her to get this shot of her ears and fur.  Love that delicate pinky-gray color!

If you’d like to schedule a portrait shoot for your pets or kiddos in our brand spankin’ new natural light studio, today is the perfect time to head on over to Living Social for a simply fantastic offer.  It’s only good until Midnight, when it turns into a portrait pumpkin and vanishes forever. ;)
