I always advocate for photographing what you love. One of the things I love most and that bring me the most joy are the animals I share my life with. We have been fortunate to fill our home with so many dogs and even cats over the years. They have all been a prominent part of my photography. I often take my dogs outside in the yard and play with them and… Read More

Sometimes you capture a photo you love. But when you go back and look at that image it is hard to remember what exactly what was going on. I know this photo was taken during Christmas. I know it is a photo of our dog Bella. But other than that I really do not know what was happening in this image. All I know and all that matters to me is that… Read More

Last year during my 2021 one photo a day project I am pretty sure I photographed our cats more than ever before. Our cat Peaches has the coolest contrast fur. And she has bright green eyes. She is the perfect photography subject most of the time. Especially if she is sitting in her cat tower. She will just sit there and allow me to do whatever I want to with my photography…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 363. Pet portraits are always fun. They can be very interesting. And challenging. Sometimes results may vary. The outcome is often completely reliant on the pets. This is especially the case when there has been no training and no food inducements involved. Today I set up my lights and tried to convince one of my cats, any of my cats to approach me so I could… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 340. I finally received some larger sized backgrounds for photography that had been on back order. And I was excited to give them a try. I thought I would use them in conjunction with photographing some portraits of one of our cats. Our cat Paisley has been really friendly lately and was hanging around my office already. I thought it would be easy to lure her… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 321. I feel like I haven’t don’t any pet portraits lately. I wanted to try using one of my solid backgrounds in conjunction with photographing one of our pets. Using the background with one of the animals would be interesting but have potential for really cool results. Our cat, Monkey, was up in her cat tower. I was able to set up the background behind her…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 199. Today was a good day for pet portraits. It is nice to relax at home and see what one of our pets is cooperative enough for some portraits. The dogs did not want to have anything to do with my photographs. One cat wouldn’t sit still for photos. The other cat was hiding somewhere. But Paisley was sitting in the middle of the coffee table…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 177. Back at indoor pet portraits today. I tried a little work with everyone today. I wasn’t popular. Almost everyone got up and walked away after a few photos. Our cat Paisley was patient with me today. I thought she was going to crawl up to me and rub her face right on the camera. She settled in and relaxed right up close though. I love… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 176. I have been doing a lot of outdoor photography lately. Today I decided to do some indoor photography of our pets. I decided to work with our cat Peaches. She is always cooperative. She can usually be found atop her cat tower. And she likes to sit relatively still. I photographed her close up using my macro lens with a shallow depth of field. I… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 111. Some days I plan in advance. I know what I want to photograph. Then I can go to a specific location. And I look for certain subjects. Other days. I get up early and work out. Then I get in my office to work on photography projects before work. After that its a full day at my day job. Then its running time after work…. Read More
