I couldn’t stop laughing during this Kensington pet photography session! I spent an hour with Lucy and her family at their gorgeous home in the Kensington neighborhood of San Diego, and Lucy was the perfect little model! She’s only six months old, and “scared of her own shadow”, as her parents say… and true to her timid nature, she flinched the first few times I fired my camera’s shutter. But with a bit of coaxing, and plenty of treats, she quickly decided that posing for the camera wasn’t so bad after all! And from then on, she gave me all the puppy cuteness my camera could handle!

 This is Lucy! Can you handle that face?!

 I know her mom loves the puppy-head-tilt look, and Lucy does it soooo well!

 So, Lucy is scared of many things, including new places. And walks. So her parents came up with a brilliant solution: they use a skateboard to explore the neighborhood! It’s like a security blanket for Lucy; she loves it and is willing to travel much further on the skateboard than she would on a regular walk! So if you’re ever in Kensington and happen to see a Jack Russell rolling by, you can bet that it’s Miss Lucy!

 When I told my friends that I’d be photographing a Jack Russell terrier puppy, they unanimously said “good luck!” And Lucy had plenty of that trademark Jack Russell energy to spare. But by the end of our photo session, we had successfully tuckered her out! Haha – looks like I won this round! :)  Sleep well, Lucy!

Thanks again for a fabulous evening, Alina & Mike! We have so many cute photos – I can’t wait for you to see the rest of them!  :)
