I think these guys are kinda cute. Scared to death of me, but not my car. What?! I guess they’re used to large vehicles driving past but not things that walk on two legs. Either way, I wanted to share what I did today. And this is it…

Growing up in a farm town I would run back and forth to my best friends house through the fruit trees. We had a blast as children and I’m thankful that she’s still apart of my life even now. Today I took pictures of my childhood bff’s retired German Shepherd. Jazz worked as a search and rescue dog so he was very well behaved. It was a fun shoot and we got some great shots of this huge dog!

Years ago Derek and Amy met at Hume Lake Christian Camps. Over the years they’ve both worked at Hume, left Hume, and returned to Hume. If memory serves me correctly, they got married in the Fall of 2003. Their son came along just two years ago and he’s been a ball of energy since day one. They are absolutely wonderful and I was so happy to be able to take their pictures for them.

A nice woman came over to help us get some pictures with Hudson looking at the camera and smiling. I didn’t see this, but she put her Chihuahua over my head and made it dance. Glad I didn’t look up! But, we got some great pictures and the dancing dog worked! Hudson sat still and all three of them laughed and enjoyed the show for a minute.

Derek and Amy are pretty wonderful… so is Hudson. Enjoy…

As some of you may not, and others of you might not, I just don’t like dogs. In fact, the idea of ever owning a dog is completely foreign to me. I’m not sure where my dislike for dogs came from. My mom loves dogs, we had dogs growing up, I even loved my dog who I named Friskie… but at some point along the way (maybe it was when I was five and my grandparents German Shepherd bit the skin of Marisol’s forehead off) I stopped thinking they were cute.
I don’t like their smell, the wet nose, the licking, the shedding, the hair, when they shake after they got wet… oh the list can go on and on!

BUT, I got to shoot my friends dog for them on Saturday. And surprise, surprise. I liked the dog. She didn’t lick me, she didn’t nudge me with her nose, she didn’t smell, she didn’t shed because she had hair, and she didn’t bark or lick herself inappropriately. She was rather cute and I even pet her. So maybe it was a breakthrough but the next dog can send me back to my normal self.

Anyhow, meet Annie. She’s cute.
