San Diego Chihuahuas Mimi & Roxie! (Photos)

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2016

I recently had the pleasure of meeting two dogs with completely different personalities! These San Diego chihuahuas Mimi & Roxie are both adorable, and both very much loved by their parents, but I’m pretty sure that’s where the similarities end! Roxie is a total firecracker: energetic, spunky, and happy to bark at any passing person or dog! She makes her opinions heard, and she knows exactly what she wants. Basically, she’s the boss! Whereas her sister Roxie, an older chihuahua mix, couldn’t be more laid-back. She’s relaxed, content, and simply happy to be with her family. There’s not much that she feels the need to bark at; just keep the treats coming and she’s a happy camper, haha! So it was a fun challenge to balance each dog’s personalities during their photo session, and I have to admit, I think the results are absolutely adorable! :)  We visited Coronado Ferry Landing and enjoyed relaxing in the green grass and pretty flowers… and Mimi enjoyed barking at all the other dogs too! :)

 

This is Mimi – always ready to go! I can just see the mischievous glint in her eyes…

And this is Roxie! (I figured I’d better share an action photo, so you don’t think she’s a lazy dog, haha! She has a relaxed and calm demeanor, but she can RUN, too! Especially if you’ve got chicken!)

Oh my goodness. Pint-sized pups, with so much personality!

Thanks, Isabella & Cassandra, for an amazing afternoon! I’m so glad we braved the cloudy skies for these photos! :)  Talk to you soon!

Monday, February 1st, 2016

Have you ever met a dog that’s simply BURSTING with joy? I mean happy beyond belief, can’t-even-handle-it joyous, constantly full-body-wiggling due to a never-stop-wagging tail, whose huge smile and relentless cheer can always brighten your day?

That dog is Madison!

I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with this ridiculously happy pup recently, and she kept me smiling the entire time, haha! I love working with happy dogs & happy people, so I was in for a treat when I met up with Madison and her mom Debbie. We had a fabulous time exploring Balboa Park, stopping by Coronado, and finishing up under a dazzling sunset on the beach in La Jolla. I learned that Madison has a hard time staying still – because life is simply too exciting to just stay in one place, haha! Her antics certainly kept me on my toes, but I’m loving the resulting photos… because capturing joy like this may not be the easiest task, but it sure is worth the effort. This gorgeous girl is radiating happiness! (Make sure your screen doesn’t overheat! Haha!)

 

We started our photo session in Balboa Park, and I knew I wanted to find some soft, pretty flowers to frame Madison’s lovely smile! Can’t you just tell that she’s a total sweetheart?

Turns out, I was able to trick Madison into “posing” for a moment or two… and I’m glad I did! The sun gave her the most amazing halo…

Last but not least, we went to Madison’s favorite place: the beach. Don’t come between Madison and her tennis ball! :)

Debbie, thank you so much for a fabulous afternoon! I had a great time with both of you, and I’m excited to show you the rest of our photos soon! :)
