Guess who’s on the cover of the latest issue of The Bark?

I photographed sweet Mr. T back in November and wow, look at him now. The 14 year old guy is famous! The Bark is my HANDS DOWN favorite dog magazine - it’s really appealing to design savvy people and has very intelligent, well written articles as well. It’s an honor to have Mr. Tuvok’s photo on their latest issue. I think it just hit newsstands this week so go check it out.

And yay for all the senior dogs out there (especially all my senior doggie clients!) - 2009 is your year!

Edgar is the CUTEST MINI BULLDOG. EVER!

He’s also another out of town client - the little guy was visiting from Las Vegas. His mama bought her sweetie a photo session as a Valentine’s day gift and we met at gorgeous Playa Vista.

Can I just say how much I love dogs with smushed faces? Edgar was my first true bulldog client - I want more! More bulldogs, more frenchies! Where are you people with smushy face dogs?

Edgar’s mamas call his crooked little bottom teeth RICE TEETH. I love it!

Helen thanks for a fun photo shoot. Edgar is such a doll. Hope you guys like the photos!

(Next on deck: Bianca and 2 adorable little doxies!)

I had several very sweet people get their honies a Shine Pet Photos Valentine’s Day gift this year. Chris was one of them — he surprised his wifey with a session on V-Day for their two rescue dogs Lucy and Boo Boo!

So the little girls kind of hated the camera, but I LOVE the shots we managed to get despite their camera shyness.

Hey Chris and Taryn, thanks for a fun morning! Hope you like the photos. : )

Helen and Edgar, your sneak peek is next!

I loved this quote so much I had to share it with you guys. If you haven’t seen this movie, try to forget about all the buzz you’ve heard and go watch it. You’ll be so inspired by the cinematography.

PS: All the random facts in the blog entry below are hilarious. Thanks for sharing!! I’ll be announcing a winner shortly so stay tuned.

Hey all you blog readers out there. You all kind of know about me, but I don’t really know about a lot of you. (Especially those who have never commented before!)

So let’s get to know each other a little better. Shoot me a comment and say hey - tell me where you’re from, your pet’s name(s), and any fun, quirky fact about yourself (perhaps one pulled from the “25 random facts” list you already wrote on Facebook?). The more weird and random, the better. I love strange facts.

I’ll randomly pick someone to receive a copy of “PhoDOGraphy” by Kim Levin and the latest issue of Popular Photography. I received 2 of the same issue this month and would love to give it a good home!

UPDATE:

O-M-G! All your random facts are freaking weird and hilarious and just plain delightful! Forget randomly giving the book + magazine away — it’s going to the fact I deem my favorite!
