Oh my goodness. This dog. Where do I begin?

I love working with puppies of any breed, and although Annabel the corgi celebrated her first birthday recently (complete with a birthday cupcake!), I think 1-year-old dogs still count as puppies, don’t you? (Heck, my Bailey is 5 years old and I call her a puppy every day!) So when I heard from Annabel’s parents about the opportunity to do not only a puppy photography session, but a corgi photography session, I just about jumped out of my chair! I absolutely love corgis and their relentless happiness; they’re wonderful dogs and their short little legs always make me smile! Annabel is a lovely little brindle-and-white-colored lady who lives with her parents in Chula Vista. She enjoys super-healthy dried treats (like chicken and sweet potato), meeting and making friends with everyone she possibly can, and running around her backyard like crazy! Seriously, this dog is one of the sweetest pups I’ve ever met… I’m honored to introduce you to her!

We started our session in the studio in San Diego… don’t you love her smile and big fluffy tail?

Then we headed to her house in Chula Vista, where she showed me how cute she looks on all the furniture, especially mom & dad’s bed. But her goofy mood struck outside on the grass – I adore her pose on the left just as much as the “outtake” on the right, haha! Corgi photography comes with its fair share of silliness, that’s for sure!

And finally, it was off to Bayside Park to run around on the sand, pose like a champ, and finally watch the sun set.

Thank you for a delightful session, Jim & Margaret! Annabel is so darn cute that I have a feeling I won’t be able to resist posting a photo or two to the Facebook page before we can get together again… so you might want to keep an eye out! :)
