Dog Wedding

I always said the I do not do weddings.. well never say never, when it comes to photographing pooches I rarely say no. I am a “pet photographer” or “dog photographer” or a photographer that loves dogs and works with them etc…all of the above are my reasons for taking the wedding photos, but still a firm no to the human weddings!

Anyway we shall find out about the happy couple Perdo (Chihuahua)  and Harley Lyn (Dachshund). They met this summer at he Playful Puppy Palace; did not like each other at the first glance but with time the relationship developed and now they spend every moment together.

I have to say that this was the most challenging shoot I ever had to do, the place was packed. Poor dogs tried to navigate between the feet and paws of others..In all that commotion there was a crazy woman (yours truly). I was following them everywhere sticking my lens into their noses and blinding them with the flash. Lisa (Playful Puppy Palace owner) and her husband Khris spared no expense to make the wedding as glamorous as possible.. if you ever been to the PPP you would know, the name Palace is there for a reason.. There was a wedding cake, the weeding arch, take away doggy bags with treats, flowers, hearts. In place of the rings the dogs received silver necklaces to exchange..

Lots of people showed up to see the dogs tie the knot, Global TV and the local papers were there too. Pedro and Harley Lyn tried to get some play time before the wedding..

And then was the time to get dressed up and take the vows..

And then there was a cake..
