Simon and Megan you are so adorable. And the seven high-resolution digital files and seven 8x10's that adorn Patti's wall is a testament to how much she loves you. Patti assured me that Simon and Megan are not dogs, they are family. Luckily, she has the same view as all of my clientele. Although Simon was on the quite side his personality came out when we left the studio for an on location session. He was not as fast at Megan, but he was definitely spunky. His gentle smile and loving eyes reminded me of Heidi, my golden retriever of 17 years and 7 weeks that we sent to Rainbow Bridge on July 2nd of this year. Simon was clearly a momma's boy and was awaiting Patti's direction at every moment. And of course, high quality treats always followed shortly after. There was a little more pressure for Simon's studio portraits. Patti had taken him elsewhere to get portraits 3 years back, and she was not happy with them and never purchased any. Luckily, I specialize in family pet photography and Patti was relieved to say the least.
Megan, (much smaller but clearly more dynamic) was all energy. In studio she was darling and was so photogenic that almost every moment was perfect. It was almost like she was a starlit from the golden era of film...awaiting her powder and make-up. On location she was anything but a starlit from the 50's. She became a 100 meter short track sprinter. I photograph several on location pets a month and she was by far one the most graceful in recent memory. Luckily my camera was up to the task and could keep up with her, barely. When I printed to 8x10's, I felt like keeping them for myself they were so beautiful. However, Patti was awaiting them and I delivered them personally as I always. She loved them as much has I did and I am sure Simon and Megan will enjoy seeing themselves for many years to come.
