Pet photography - Lucy & Oscar

Pet photography – Lucy & Oscar

Pure love and a steely blue coat with a golden stare. That’s a weimaraner – all love and one of the most striking dogs you will ever see. Phil and Tammy contacted me for help capturing some great pet photography for their Christmas card. Apparently, Oscar and Lucy have graced the cover of every Christmas card they have sent. So, put two weimaraners together with the holiday season and what do you get? Step inside to find out and see the best pet photography of Oscar and Lucy.

Pet Photography - Wilson

Pet Photography – Wilson

I was worried at first. Not just a little, but quite a lot. Wilson had been wandering around the studio for the entire shoot. Out of the five of us, we could not get him to hold still. Wilson was happy of course. He had his favorite bone, ball and a belly full of treats. I was still concerned because I wasn’t sure I got the shot.

Pet Photography – Moxie

Pet Photography – Moxie

Being a location photographer in Cleveland means that the winters are down times. Often it is too cold outside to take photos. So, I retreat to the studio and work indoors. These photos were intended to be a Christmas gift for my wife (and sometimes photo assistant), Brooke. I knew she would love to have high-quality portraits of Moxie. However, through cunning womanly trickery, she talked me into spilling the beans on the pet portraits. In the end, I am glad I did. We had a great time taking photographs in the studio together with our doberman, Moxie.


Pet Photography – Samos

Pet Photography – Samos

Samos and I got to know each other in a deep and meaningful way. Or at least as best one person can really get to know a Hungarian Vizsla. Really, they are just weird dogs. Samos is great however.

You see, Samos belongs to a close friend and I would watch her from time to time. First rule of pet sitting – never take your eye off the Vizsla!
