There you go again, padding your ratings with "Cute". I'll give you credit, though, for resisting incorporation of a sunset and a bikini...although upon closer inspection, maybe a bikini bottom would have been in order.

 

Another great shot from this series, Matt.

Yeah, Tim, those Puppy Speedos were on backorder, so we went au natural. The real problem is in dealing with the ones that show up after a three-martini lunch.

And, some of them just won't stop talking. It's SO hard to find young professionals you can work with.

I swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth . . .

 

You're making me want to go out and adopt a dog! How cute is this???

 

What's his name (if I missed that, sorry ;)

The main shot (the pup with the raised paw) was an outtake from a portrait session of the whole litter. The breeder has me produce an 8x10 "keeper" to go home with each new owner. These are dogs out of a long line of champions, and they'll be shown and tested/trialed in the field. So, for people who will own these valuable bird dogs, this is an important bit of documentary and history for a dog that may become an important part of their own breeding program down the road. But mostly, they're just really fun subjects.

I quite literally fell of my chair laughing when I saw this one and the ones below. If one off the heigher goals of photography is to create an emotion, and I think it is, you're at the pinnacle.

All of the above are wonderful. Each an emotional image itself and made even stronger when viewed in a series.

Matt, you rock, as usual! I love this photo, but I especially love all the outtakes. Your dog photos are an inspiration to me. And a reminder that I have a long ways to go! -Maija
