meet doodle Kiera …
you’ve already met her in her sneak peek, but here she is in all her scruffy glory.
for having severe hip dispylsia, this wild girl can move.
on a gorgeous november afternoon, we had a splendid walk out in Elmira. i love when clients find awesome locations with a variety of backdrops, from grasses …
to a beach …
and forest paths …
and lots of room to run.
i loved working with Kiera and her mom, Karen … lots of great conversation and a most accommodating model.
she only pretends to be bashful.
Karen and Kiera make an awesome team …
even when Kiera was modeling for me and lavishing me with all that scruffy love, she still kept an eye on mom.
and the little beach was fantastic … one of my favorite backdrops, where dogs can really be dogs …
just a fun-loving, easy-going girl …
thanks, Karen and Kiera, for a fabulous afternoon. i hope you enjoy your images.

WOW Illona – these are amazing! I love the one where Kiera’s sitting on the hardwood floor in the house, the tones and light are fabulous! And the walk in the forest next to Karen – wow!
You are such an inspiration for all of us who love to photograph our canine companions.
YOu’d sure never know about the hip dysplasia. What a wonderful set of pictures, and a wonderful dog!!! She and her person obviously adore one another.
Elbow out with the piano in the background. Priceless! What a beauty!
such beautiful shots…love the colours and tones! the close-up of her eye is stunning! great job as usual, illona.
What an awesome shoot Ilona! I just love how you’ve captured the intense bond between kiera and karen, but the photos are all so incredibly well shot.I bow my head.
thank you so much, everyone, for your visits and comments. this girl is still very much on my mind … such a wonderful dog.
