Sneak Peek: Jack & Tobey ~ {Pensacola, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Monday, March 21st, 2011

Aaaaand in this corner, the current record-holder for longest-ever Dalmatian session to date… Jack and Tobey! These are the inseparable brothers of Pensacola natives Chad & Michelle, and let me tell you what, these dogs love their parents! Jack is a peigle (a beagle/shar pei mix), and Tobey is the beautiful brown miniature dachshund. We had a great time exploring wide open fields, going home for a quick nap, and then visiting the studio for a few timeless photos. Here is the smallest of sneak peeks from our time together!

 

 

 

 

A bit of snuggles to finish up!

 

Thanks, Chad & Michelle! Get ready to see all the rest!

Sneak Peek: Britney & Toto ~ {Gulf Breeze, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Friday, March 18th, 2011

I had the most difficult time with this Sneak Peek. It was really quite hard for me.

 

I just couldn’t choose which photos to use. And while I’m still far from done with all the editing, I just know this session is a special one.

 

Here are a few photos, and I can honestly say that they are totally random picks. Usually I choose my favorites for sneak peeks, but asking me to choose the best images at this point is like asking a dog which patch of sun he’d rather lay in. “Uhh, they all make me warm and happy!” Two of these photos show the bond these two girls have with their dogs – Emma has Britney the black cockapoo, and Kate has Toto the little yorkiepoo. And let me tell you, all four of them were even more adorable in person. I absolutely cannot wait to go back to their house for their ordering session! Thanks again for a fabulous session, ladies!!

Daizie & Wink ~ {Pensacola, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Thursday, March 17th, 2011

These were two very interesting dogs to work with! I think the owners and I were laughing throughout the entire session, just because these pups are total opposites of one another! Daizie, the light-colored Papillon-dachshund mix, is a total mama’s girl. She stuck as close to her mom as possible, for the entire session. So the fact that we have photos of her, by herself, is nothing less than a small miracle. Wink, on the other hand, is the dark-colored little dachshund mix, and it was rare for him to give me a couple feet of space! He’s a people-loving dog – especially when those people have treats.

 

So I hope you enjoy the video of these dogs that are both FULL of personality!

 

Here are a couple of my favorite photos from the session, and the owners’ favorite too.

Sneak Peek: Lucy & Beau ~ {Panama City, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Saturday, March 5th, 2011

I had the privilege of spending Thursday afternoon with these fun little poodles! Lucy is the red one and Beau (short for Beauregard) is the white one, and let me tell you what, these dogs are fun! Their owner and I could hardly stop laughing the entire session, because these pups are so people-friendly and eager to please. They’re only in Florida for a short time, so I’m glad I had the chance to meet these little guys before they head back to freezing cold Indiana. Enjoy the sneak peek!

Sneak Peek: Daizie & Wink ~ {Pensacola, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Thursday, March 3rd, 2011

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Yes, I know that was last month. But today’s sneak peek features the winners of my Valentine’s Day contest!

We went to historic downtown Pensacola, which provides some fantastic backgrounds, and the owners of Daizie & Wink were more than happy to give them a try! Our shoot was at a pretty relaxed pace, since Wink (aka Bullwinkle, the little black dude with attitude) can only trot along so fast- he’s 14 years old! And Daizie is a complete mama’s girl, so getting her away (even just a few feet) from her mom was quite the challenge. Can you guess what breed she is? I thought she was Welsh Corgi and I was completely wrong.

The session mostly features Daizie, so I figured I’d give the limelight to Wink for the sneak peek. Enjoy the photos!

 

 

Oh, we just went for a swim in the fountain, no big deal…

 

 

Thanks, Crystal & Susie! See you soon for your ordering session!
