Traffic ~ BLOW project ~ Caledon pet photographer

This is Traffic.  Traffic is a Bearded Collie / Border Collie cross, and he was fabulous in front of the fan for the special pet photography series BLOW!  This is definitely  one of my favorite photos in the series. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this popular pet photography series, I introduced the much-awaited BLOW project in this very first blog entry, but given the variety I captured of each participant I felt that individual entries were warranted.

Traffic was a big hit on sites like Bored Panda and across the globe in the UK, France, Estonia, and even Japan among other countries.

And here is Traffic with his brother Party.

Stay tuned right here on the scruffy dog blog for more exciting entries in the BLOW photo series!  You can also see more of BLOW across different online publications like Dog Milk, Dogster and This Dog’s Life (sometimes called Dogs vs Fans) as well as real publications globally.

And if you don’t want to miss a single blog entry and BLOW model, consider ‘subscribing’ for the notifications by email whenever a new blog entry has been posted.  You’ll receive a simple email alerting you to each new blog entry — easy peasy … you’ll never miss another! Subscription signup can be done through the slide-out menu on the left … yup, right over there … or rather ‘left’ over there.  You got it.   See you soon!

    Cody & Carys ~ BLOW project ~ Guelph pet photographer

    This is Cody, a rescue boy of unknown breeding, but the owner of a couple of very fabulous ears as you can see in his images from my much-awaited BLOW dog photography project.  For those of you who aren’t familiar with this popular pet photography series, I introduced the much-awaited BLOW project in this very first blog entry, and it has become a hit on sites like Bored Panda and across the globe in the UK, France, Estonia, and even Japan among other countries.Thank you for your fantastical ears, Cody, and for your patience with all that ticklish wind!

    And this is Carys, the smooth-coated Border Collie.  Carys belongs to the amazingly talented dog-walker / dog-handler Shannon of Release the Hounds in Guelph.  Shannon helped with most of the sessions in this BLOW series, and her scruffies Carys and Riley were two of my first test models.

    Carys was awesome … still young at the time of this session, she had just learned the ‘bow’ command … little show-off.

    Thank you, Carys, for being a superstar.  And thank you, Shannon, for all of your amazing help.

    • Susan HumphreysHi Illona, I’m not on facebook, so I can’t follow you on there, but I was so pleased to see you back on Flickr. You’ve had a tough
      time, and I was so sorry to hear about Matea and Merrick. Love your
      new scruffy though! I love your blow project,and actually saw
      this about a month ago in the Daily Mail! Your fame is spreading
      far and wide!!! They’re awesome photographs. Take care.

      Best wishes,
      Susan Humphreys

    Thanks for your participation, Ralphie!

    And this is Axel, a border collie, also from Kitchener.  Like Ralphie, this isn’t Axel’s first go in front of the scruffy dog cameras.

    Axel found his spot and just wanted to chill ….
