Seeing my past clients brightens my day, every time it happens! I love the families I get to work with on a daily basis, and I’m so lucky to call so many of them my friends now… running into them around town and at local events is so much fun. But when I get to see them again specifically for another photo session?! Oh my gosh, that’s icing on the cake!! So I was thrilled to book another photo session for the handsome Aberdeen, the CCI service dog! (Regular blog readers might remember his two sneak peeks from earlier this year, here and here!) This labrador/golden retriever pup is not only handsome, but absolutely devoted to his mom Patty – which I just can’t get enough of capturing. Their relationship is so beautiful – he’s there for her at every turn, always watchful and attentive… and yet his personality is so silly & goofy! I got to see both sides of Aberdeen during our studio photo session, during which he posed like a pro and somehow kept me laughing the entire time! Seriously, I could work with this dog every day and not get tired of it… his happiness is that infectious! :)

Here he is (in his favorite pose – relaxing!) on the white backdrop. He has a few more gray hairs than last time, and I think the white really brings them out! They’re a “distinguished gray”!

No photo session is complete without TREATS!

And lastly, Aberdeen wanted to bring out his formal attire on the gray backdrop! Eeeeek! Doesn’t he look soooo handsome?!

Patty, Aberdeen is one of those dogs that I just can’t get enough of! It was so great to see both of you again! Can’t wait to get together again soon! :)
