Rental Cat.

I have a cat.  Well, kinda. He’s my rental-cat, here until the airline can find a place for him to go back to his mommy and daddy.  This is Trigger – cat of fellow photographer friend, Erin.  Erin had to relocate to the United States, but thanks to the military being wonderful at planning, she […]

Family Portraits at the Campidoglio

On Sunday, we lucked out with some absolutely gorgeous weather and great light over at the Capitoline Hill.  Where better to do a family portrait in Rome?  Anyway, we had a great time with this family of 6 (including the sweet little Shih tzu, Essence).  And the most fantastic kids I’ve ever had the pleasure […]

Nelson’s Getting a New Brother

The last maternity / pet session I photographed was WAAAY less cute than this adorable family of three.  Three being mom, dad, and dog… for now at least.  Unlike the last “pet maternity session” there were no hairless rats to be found last night!  (That doesn’t mean there aren’t any… it’s Rome after all…  it […]

Photographers Gone Wild

Just getting around to posting this from about… er… 3 weeks ago? Hey, considering my track record, that’s not that bad! Seeing as I have 3 shoots I keep *meaning* to post from six months ago… Anyway, these are two photographers from Rome – well, one’s in Rome, and the other is from Rome, but […]

I finally figured it out.

How to list my blog with search engines, that is!  (And here you thought this would be some deep philosophical thread – sorry to disappoint.)  Anyway I listed my blog and about 2 days later, it was republished.  Well, I thought it was cool (and sufficiently ego-stroking.)  Wish she would have just asked me for […]

So Exciting! (Long Post)

Still trying to get over the shock… 🙂  This year’s scores from 2010 International Print Competition have come out. I don’t know if you remember any of my posts on print-comp in the past, but here’s generally how it works:  You first buy a semi-expensive (approved) print-case, and then agonize for months over which 4 […]

Big dog. Little dog.

Brice has a new big brother… and I do mean BIG! Brody is a 100 lb. mastiff… and still growing!  Just look at the size of those paws. Anyway, Lizzy bought in her new baby for some pet portraits just in time for Christmas (which explains the hat).  They’re both surprisingly amenable to wearing clothing […]

Chloe & Domino

These two gorgeous girls are Chloe – the Shepherd, and Domino – the German Cooley.  Really good dogs, but as different as night and day.  Chloe is definitely the Alpha dog but as sweet as can be.  Domino is by far the submissive one.  She seemed to be a little terrified of Dave too, but […]

Powder Puff Pierre

Meet Pierre.  He might look little, but this is one dominant little maltese!  Pierre is an Alpha dog all around – but it’s ok, because he’s just so darn cute!  If he doesn’t resemble a stuffed animal, I don’t know what does.  Just look at those shiny button eyes and puffy little tail.  Thanks to […]

Rare White Wolf… kinda

Better late than never!… Meet Klondike – an absolutely gorgeous mix who is white from head to toe.  He looks exactly like a wolf (he might be part-wolf for all I know!) except that he’s as sweet and gentle as a  baby.  Poor guy was absolutely terrified of my background paper – so he was […]
