Gone Fishing

This was one of the first dog photographs I captured when I moved to San Diego. We were investigating our new neighbourhood and were quite taken with our proximity to San Diego Bay. This little fellow was keeping his humans company while they were fishing.

Crossing the street

This photograph was taken in the main street of Bisbee, Arizona. I couldn’t decide whether I preferred the photo in colour or black and white, so I processed it so that it was somewhere in between.

Sausalito

If you ever make the trip to San Francisco, I can highly recommend a visit to Sausalito. It’s a lovely little township just over the Golden Gate Bridge and in the afternoons it has a wonderful view of the city as the sun sets. There are plenty of beautiful, upmarket art galleries which I happily wandered through for a few hours, and the main street is lined with restaurants wafting delicious smells.

I followed this lady and her Collie around for a good while. I thought she might suspect that I was stalking her (which I guess I was, but in a nice way). Look a little closely at this photo and you’ll find what the Collie is watching.

Dog Walking in Hippy Town

Photographed in Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco. One of the best places EVER for people (and dog) watching.

On the streets of San Francisco

As I squatted down to photograph this little fellow on the streets of San Francisco I overheard, “Some people will photograph anything.”

Is it really that strange to take photographs of dogs? I often wonder what people are thinking of me when I’m out on the street madly snapping away at any dog I spot. But then I think…I’m an Aussie. With this accent I can get away with being just another crazy tourist! :)

Bisbee

Photographed in the main street of Bisbee, Arizona. Can anyone please confirm the breed of this dog. I get a little confused with the small breeds because they can be clipped in so many different ways.

Don’t Mess with Max

On Saturday afternoon I had an awesome time photographing my good friend Rebecca, her husband Pat and their new Puggle puppy, Max. It was a stunning afternoon so we headed to Balboa Park for a good mix of beautiful gardens and interesting architecture. 

Max is only four months old, but he took his photography session so seriously. Whenever the camera was pointed in his direction he would stare at it with such fierce concentration. I’ve never seen a puppy with such an attention span, but it certainly made my job easier.

This is my first client session in about 10 months. I was worried it wouldn’t all come back to me, but it’s just like riding a bike (but more fun). Thanks to Rebecca for giving me the opportunity to get creative again and try new things.
