winnie and telly ~ {Guelph, Ontario dog photographer}

it’s probably been a year now since i’ve had the opportunity to post a blog entry focused just on one session. because of the heavy shooting schedule, it’s been our habit to post sneak peeks to the scruffy dog facebook page, and then post a recap of those images here on the blog, with absolutely no time to do our traditional blog posts for sessions.  and frankly, that sucks.  so … when time permits, i’ll try to post a few extra photos from sessions … especially when they’re such great looking little scruffnuts like Winnie …

…and her sweet brother Telly.

Winnie was a complete camera hog …

while brother Telly was a little more standoffish, wondering what was truly in it for him.

Telly is very much his own man … doing his own thing, only interested in you and your cameras for a 4-second time span or until his greedy sister barges her way into the treat zone. but i loved Telly’s calm, easy going energy …

just doin’ his own thing …

while his sister could be cajoled into doing just about anything … even some impromptu learning of a new trick like “down-all-the-way” so i could capture some good begging eyes.

yes, that Winnie is a pretty easy mark.

in fact, Miss Winnie is such a treat slut, there were times she was almost impossible to shoot … simply too eager to get to the delicious scruffy dog snacks. (well, i do bring the good stuff.)

little beggar …

we found a few great spots to shoot along Telly and Winnie’s usual walking paths …

and i just love the long lush grasses of spring … Winnie was a natural, but Telly was having none of the long grasses.

and how cool is it when butterflies decide to crash your photo session?

can’t you just see their different energies here?

thanks, Telly and Winnie, for the lovely afternoon.  you guys are awesome.
