Three's Company....

You know we have a soft spot for puppies- and when it comes to Frenchie puppies, we can't get much more excited for a puppy session!!  These three cuties are the puppies of a lineage of French Bulldog award winning champions (remember Zed?  click here to view our past blog post on Zed:  http://miroslavichphotography.blogspot.com/2009/12/introducing-one-onlyzed.html )  The two brindle (dark puppies) and the one fawn (blondie puppy) came to us at 11 weeks old just prior to being sent to their new owners across the United States. As you can see, they wore themselves out playing in the studio.   Our wooden bowl was very intriguing and provided constant entertainment for the first 3/4 of the session.  And then, just like puppies, they crashed hard and were fast asleep in and out of the bowl!!  We hope they are all settling well into their new homes!

A new puppy to love!!!

Meet Lena!! Lena is so lucky to have been adopted into such a loving family with four kiddos to cuddle and care for her! Lena arrived in the late fall and came into the studio soon after to have puppy photos taken-she loved the attention and indulged us by making her up as a girly-girl. I think she rather enjoyed the pink princess chair, don't you? We can't wait to see Lena again when she is all grown!! Congratulations!!

It is March and still not Spring (another couple of inches of snow is falling today!) To create some excitement in the studio in anticipation of spring, we have created something special!

Puppies for sale!!!

Well, not really for sale! At least not these puppies!! When they came to us they were all about 9 weeks of age and MORE THAN ADORABLE!! They were all spoken for and heading off to their new families shortly after our photo session. Their "mother"/breeder, Colleen, wanted an image for her website to capture their sweetness and togetherness before they were separated to live with their new owners! (www.hugabeargoldendoodles.com) Many of them were heading out of state to their new homes!
It was a great photo session (a little messy...need I say more?!?) with lots of energy and running around (and not just by the puppies...Melissa and I were sweating by the end) And at the end, 10 adorable puppies left the studio (despite the fact I tried to smuggle one home with me!!) exhausted and happy!! And so were we!!!

(A lot of...) Puppy Love!

It was an exciting day when we had the opportunity to photograph the young lives of 10 (yes, 10!!!!) English Teddy Bear Goldendoodle puppies at the age of 10 weeks! Colleen Fogle, owner of Hug a Bear Goldendoodles, wanted to capture this puppy stage before these 10 pups left her home to live with their new owners. We had a lot of fun (and a lot of clean-ups....10 puppies in one studio-you do the math!)chasing them, cuddling them, and playing with them. Let's just say that Colleen was lucky to leave with all 10 since I was very tempted to sneak one home with me!

A Litter of Puppies!

I have the best job EVER! I cannot imagine doing anything else. Last week I had the pleasure to make portraits of the cutest litter of Irish Setter puppies - all 9 of them. They were adorable, and it was a HUGE challenge not to just fall in love and bring one (or three) home. Our kids would have been excited, but the cats would have been offended, our dog would probably not be overjoyed, and the husband ... well. So I thought the least I could do is share the good fortune of the happiness of the experience with you. Enjoy!
