This photo sorta goes with my last post (Sir Jack;Old English Bulldog). Amos was sitting in the window the entire time Jack was having his portrait done watching the whole process. I’m not sure if Amos was Jealous (I doubt it since cats always know they are really in charge) or simply waiting for his close up.

Amos lives in Fairbanks Alaska. This particular day it was in the mid 70′s, quite beautiful outside and Amos REALLY wanted to go out and play. He spent the majority of his photo session looking out the French doors and doing his best to express his desire to be let out. I pretended to be a stupid human not understanding a single meow while clicking away at my shutter.

Not long ago I was setting up my camera at a clients to do some portrait photography when a beautiful black Labrador retriever “Mist” walked up carrying a white Frisbee & proceeded to start tapping my leg with the disk. I confess, I am a sucker for a pretty face & Mist is very persuading so I took a few minutes to do a little playing. Fortunately, she is much better at catching than I am at throwing. Despite the lack of accuracy of my throws, Mist was quite patient with me & virtually always able to catch my passes in mid air. I love doing pet portraits & after my scheduled session she was kind enough to negotiate with her “people” to have her portrait taken as well. I also photographed Mist’s adorable Morkie “stepsister” Bella. I’ll be sure & post Bella’s beautiful portrait soon.
