Mocha Bear’s Woodsy Session

This session was a lot of fun! Little Mocha Bear, a mini Goldendoodle, is only a young pup, but did so well on our photo adventure in the woods! We met at a beautiful park with lots of trails to explore and the setting was perfect with some gorgeous morning light. We started off with some individual shots of Mocha enjoying the landscape. Her sit and stay were excellent for such a young pup! Then we did some portraits with her mom and some candid shots of them walking through the trails. The park we were at has a lot of horseback riders, and even though we didn’t see any horses, we sure saw evidence of them on the trails, so Mocha had a lot of interesting smells to sniff!

Once we had enough time exploring the woods, we came out of the trails and went into the dog run that’s located at the entrance of the park. There Mocha Bear was able to shed her leash and run to her heart’s content. We got a lot of sweet shots of her running into her mom’s arms. She definitely earned some play time after the serious modeling work she did before that.

Here are some of my favorite shots from this session!

James’ Newborn Session

I first met this awesome family a few years back when they had their twins Nathaniel and Caroline. They wanted photos of them with their eldest child, a beautiful Airedale Terrier named Benjamin Franklin! You can see those here! I got the pleasure of photographing them again for the twins’ first and second birthdays and it’s been amazing to see them sprout up into sweet toddlers and see their personalities develop over the years.

This year I was so happy to be there to photograph the newest member of their family, baby James! While James was getting ready for his close up, I started off getting some shots of the older bunch. Nathaniel and Caroline were a little hesitant to start but once they watched the master Benjamin Franklin pose, they felt much more comfortable. Once we got those, sweet baby James made his debut and joined his siblings for some group shots.

After he dipped his toe in the modeling world with his brothers and sister, he was ready for his solo career! He followed in his elder siblings’ footsteps and did such an amazing job posing. The theme of James’ nursery is space, so I brought my moon and star props, including my big white wooden moon which I love to use. Here are some of my favorite shots of this new little man!
Welcome to the world, James!
