I’m happy to report that A Dog A Day has been running for 80 days. So far I’m really happy to have so many awesome regular readers. Thanks so much for dropping by and for your continued support. Now it’s my time to give something back. I want to know what it is that you want to read about. Of course, the photos will keep coming, I just want to focus my discussions more towards what you, the blog reader, wants to hear. Please complete this simple poll to let me know what you think. You should be able to vote multiple times if there a few options that take your fancy. If there is something I’ve missed, please leave me a comment.

Of course, it’s not a real post without a Dog photo! Here’s Nemo once again.

Finding Nemo

In early 2007 I was really starting to ramp up my pet photography business. I had a steady stream of clients and I was looking to improve processes and start on the next direction the business was going to take. That’s all history now, because my ‘real job’ took priority when I was offered an awesome position in San Diego for three years. 

Just before I found out about the move, I had designed this postcard featuring a handsome German Shorthaired Pointer named Nemo. I had a whole bunch printed, but I never really got around to using them at all. The process was a lot of fun, and I’d really like to learn more about graphic design. Perhaps I should do a course, or…..maybe I have enough on my plate and I should just stick to experimentation :) A good start might be a redesign of the blog to make it look a little more funky. What do you think?

Lexie

Lexie is a German Shorthaired Pointer and is hands down the most photogenic girl I’ve ever photographed. Because she was one of my earliest clients when I first started my business I still hold a very special place in my heart for her. In fact I still have a 600mm x 600mm canvas of Lexie gracing my walls at home for the time being.

Starting along this journey has truly been a wonderful experience for me. People I met through my pet photography have become my friends and I’ve been lucky enough to experience all life special occasions with my previous clients. 

For instance, Lexie’s Mum and Dad got married sometime after their doggy photoshoot, so I was lucky enough to capture the wedding in which Lexie led Mum down the aisle. Now Lexie’s Mum is living in America too and I get to catch up with her tonight in Washington DC. 

I hope she gets a nice surprise when she opens today’s post.
