Chase, Nav-ah & Caleb Play for Pawtraits

On a warm winter’s afternoon, at Honeydew McKaynine, the beautiful Nav-ah, incredibly handsome Caleb, and super star Chase were treated to a game of ‘fetch’, ‘catch’ and ‘stay’ so that we could capture a combination of Lifestyle and Fine Art Pawtrait Photos.  Nav-ah let the entire neighborhood know about the shoot, at a high pitch squeak that only Nav-ah can achieve.  Candice brought her sister along to be part of the fur-family portraits and to help with the dogs.  Balls,… Continue reading

Pulse at 9 Months

Pulse is 9 months old and all legs now!  For this shoot, Renee did a little agility training at Canine Performance Centre with him for some action shots.  He is making beautiful, slow, consistent progress, and I can’t wait to see how he progresses for next month’s shoot! Pulse worked super hard at bump jumps, cone work, tunnels, and begs, and was well rewarded with a fun swim at the end of the shoot. Photography by Leanne Williams. 

The Smits. Now With A Ginny Monster

Remember this beautiful summer shoot?  The Smits got a gorgeous new Border Collie named Ginnie, so they scheduled another family shoot for the newbie.  But did we battle to get the scheduling right?  First, Dori had to reschedule due to work.  Then it rained. And rained and rained and rained.  Then little Stoffel fell ill, and we needed to wait for him to recover.  Then lockdown happened.  We finally managed to wrangle everyone together on a freezing winter’s day,… Continue reading

The Ferocious Zeus

Meet the BIGGEST, most FEROCIOUS….erm….cotton puff ball?  This is Zeus, a 4 month old Pomeranian puppy.  We used the beautiful and safe grounds of McKaynine Honeydew where he attended puppy socialisation classes.  We chose sunset for soft, pretty light.  Zeus thought this posing thing was EXHAUSTING!  What an amazingly good little dog!  Photography and editing by Leanne Williams.

Renee’s Pulse

Remember Renee and her pack?  Pulse is her newest puppy.   He’s a cutie.  We played with some agility equipment at Canine Performance Centre to get some sweet puppy pawtraits before he grows up, as they do far too quickly.  He was an absolute rock star at his ‘stays’ on and in the equipment, and his session ended with a reward game of tug with big brother Savvy.  Photography and editing by Leanne Williams.

Great Danes, Great Love

Shannon McKay is the owner of McKaynine.  We met her many years ago when we wanted to spend more quality time with and have more control over our Siberian Huskies.  She and her team have been hugely helpful, and have made training really fun.  Shannon also breeds beautiful, goofy Grate Danes.  We did this Pawtrait Shoot at McKaynine Honeydew, Shannon’s home with two of her special girls.  Smooch and Joanie were the canine models.  They were so excited and… Continue reading
