Remy's 5th Birthday Studio Session

Remy's mom Drew got in touch with me because she was interested in getting professional photos taken of her adorable bulldog/beagle mix Remy to celebrate his 5th birthday, which is today! Happy Birthday Remy! She told me she just wanted a few good shots of him, but she was unsure how he would do because he's blind and has a ton of energy. She thought he would be too excited if I came to their house because he loves visitors, so she wanted to bring him to my home studio, which is great because we had the full range of backdrops and props to choose from for his session. She and her husband Luke brought so many cute things to use for his photos like balloons, toys, a birthday hat, and even a homemade birthday cake for him to enjoy at the end of the shoot!

We started out on a blue background to match all his adorable accessories. Remy did such an amazing job posing. Even though he's blind, he had no trouble finding the camera because over the years I've built up quite the arsenal of absolutely ridiculous noises I can make to get dogs to look at me! After a while we switched to a light brown backdrop and got mom and dad involved for some family photos! Then it was time for Remy's favorite part of the session, when we brought out the adorable homemade birthday cake his mom baked him. We got some great shots of him happily digging in. I was prepared for there to be a huge mess in the aftermath, but Remy cleaned up after himself like a gentleman! There was barely a crumb left behind!

Here are some of my favorite shots from our session!
