Derby is a beautiful 1.5 year old Blue Heeler, smart and graceful in his moves. Derby does not like the car rides, even his name is taken from the place where he first got car sick Enderby, BC near Salmon arm. His mom had driven all the way from Langley to Richmond’s Iona Beach to meet me for his photo session. Derby needed some time to relax so we took him to the tiny beach first. Isn’t he gorgeous?
Then it was the time to do some running…
He looks so earthy, so..wild
Young dogs are always so unpredictable, Derby did at some point took off to say hello to his friends. Heelers are incredibly smart and even at such a young age you can see the intelligence in his eyes.
There is also some humor as always…
I could not stop myself from posting this one, Derby was already tired and his mom was trying to get him to do something..this is so sweet
Since Derby needs some rest; lets meet his rambunctious brother 10 week old Sully (Sullivan). He was waiting patiently in his crate while we were photographing Derby. It is pretty awesome to photograph two entirely different dogs in one session, the big and the small, the grown up and the pup. Derby is not too sure how to feel about the puppy yet, but he will come around..
I did not take Sully any time to get super friendly with me and the camera..
Puppies just make the funniest faces, and especially pugs they are great…
It is pretty funny that this little guys has such an attitude right there he is attacking my shoe laces…
I hope these images make you laugh it sure works for me! Thank you Kathleen for an opportunity to work with two such a different creatures! Fun, fun!
Really enjoy the action shots of Derby and admire the backgrounds you were able to shoot against. Love the photos of Sull, the pug puppy, especially the last one where he’s in a crouch pulling on the shoe lace — that expressive face and those cute pug eyes really pull me into the photo.
my dog is pug blue healer mix he is so cute
