Fern works with her Mom, Dr. Dudzic at the Oak Bay Pet Clinic. We had a great time up at Macaulay point, even though it felt like we might all be blown away into the ocean.

Top Dog Daycare Gets Dressed up

Charlie — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 17:30:51 +0000

A couple weeks ago I had the joy of photographing a whole pack of dogs and the lovely ladies who run Top Dog Daycare and Spa in Esquimalt. These ladies are all around AWESOME and were a lot of fun to work with. If you are looking for a great place for your dog to go while you are at work these ladies not only do great grooming but have a great little pack of dogs they regularly watch. My own dog, with all his imperfections, was well respected by all the dogs during this shoot.

A HUGE thank you to all the wonderful ladies involved in this shoot!

Bert at Cook Culture

Charlie — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 19:54:29 +0000

I stopped by Cook Culture this weekend and was saddened to discover that their Shop Dog Bert had passed away. Bert was one of the sweetest Jack Russell Terriors I’ve ever met and I was happy to hear that even with a lymphoma diagnosis she was a happy dog even in the last days of her life. She was also a champion runner, regularly running anywhere from 10-25 miles with her owner. Here is a look back at some photos I took of her last year. Bert – you will be missed!

Miley likes to play hide and seek. When I first met her owner Miley was quietly waiting in her bag and I was very surprised to see her jump out and greet me. The second time Miley came to the studio she was hiding in the hallway and it took her owner and I a good 20 seconds to figure out where she was. Once she was done with the hiding game, she was a great sport in front of the camera. We had a great time at this shoot, both in the studio and around downtown.

About a month ago, Pheonix from CFUV’s got in touch with me about doing an interview for the radio show and podcast Post Everything. I was flattered at being asked to join the conversation about Pet Photography in Victoria. Head on over to Post’s Everything’s blog to have a listen!

Studio Options!

I realize that this photo of drool isn’t the best photo, but it does show who dogs really are and for that I love it! More importantly though, I wanted to talk a bit out studio options that are available for pet portraits. With winter and grey skies upon us this is a great time of year to shoot indoors. And it just so happens I have a great little space to shoot in. I brought in Berkeley and Bear to help me show you some of the options that are available.

The classic white backdrop never goes out of style, and is a great way to showcase just your dog! With Berkeley – the French Bulldog – being only 8 months old, I am impressed we even got one shot of these two together. She was however, very food motivated which made getting her to do tricks a LOT easier. Those ears!Bear was a much calmer 3 year old, and even though he sits a little funny he still worked his way right into my heart.

We also have a very festive sequinned backdrop that is PERFECT for the holidays or celebrations.
A little more drool too! Goes well with sequins.

And we have a damask backdrop for a more regal look.

Working in the studio is also a great option if you have a dog that doesn’t have very good recall. Being confined makes it a lot easier to get their attention and they can’t run off.
