Can you believe how much this puppy resembles Marmaduke! I met with Patti and her beautiful family earlier this week for a fun family shoot. We ventured to an area that I rarely shoot at...the park! Believe it or not, i do tend to steer clear of places such as these...
Why you may ask?...well, i feel they tend to get over-used in photos and i am always trying to seek out a new angle, a new twist on family photos, so usually try to steer my clients away from the park shots
...for some reason, this shoot, i thought i would try to put a slight spin on the park thing and i may just return after all! (I did find an incredible little piece of wall to work with and it even had a subtle hint of graffiti on it...wowie happy dana!)
Okay so back to our lad Marmaduke...cute story to share:
I am editing like a crazy mad women these last few weeks, and tonight, i had to literally attempt editing with a 21 month old crawling around behind my chair, all the while practicing his new self proclaimed title:
"Mountain goat"...followed up by a "climbing...hunter climbing"..."Mountain goat" repeat phrases at least 25 times...
So hunter is happily chirping away behind me when all of a sudden he looks at my big editing screen and correctly fires out this...
"wow...puppy..."
"wow...mama...really really big puppy"
This is the image I was editing at that moment:
I had a lovely mid-morning with your family Patti, i hope you guys enjoy your sneak peek!
THis family was just so much fun, Patti and I got into a wee conversation about how amazingly fast our children grow, and she said to me, that when Avery was just a wee little baby, her and her husband decided that each day no matter what, time would be set aside to play...just play...absolutely distraction free, no matter how messy the house was or how much work needed to be done...100% complete attention would be made on solely family time...
Well Patti, i would certainly say, that watching your family interact (through my lens!!) you have achieved the complete meaning of Family Fun!
(yes i had them log roll down this hill!)
