Gulf Breeze Pet Fest ~ {Gulf Breeze Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

Yesterday (Saturday) was the 2011 Gulf Breeze Pet Fest! It was a lot of fun – until Mother Nature decided she didn’t like the idea of peaceful weather. So up until that moment (when three 10×10′ tents went flying, and my portraits came crashing down from their display stands) everyone was having a great time! Check out some of the adorable dogs I got to meet before having to pack up my booth…

 

This sweetheart wanted to snuggle up next to her Dad the whole time!

Rayne was a wonderful familiar face to see!

Bailey was the only one in her family who felt like saying hello to me…

But doesn’t her sibling Jace have the most beautiful coloring?

Tally the lab – I love her eyes!

I also adore this pomeranian’s coloring.

 

This is Treu, the smallest pit bull I’ve ever seen! Definitely a sweetheart, and tennis ball-obsessed!

Haha – I’m pretty sure this is Treu’s “look how good I am beeeeiiiinnnggggg” face!

 

Some visitors decided they needed to see my work up close…

Aaaand we have the winner for cutest pup of the day!

 

Honestly? I would like to steal him.

Gumbo the Maltese is a close runner-up, though. Wrapped up against mom’s chest was the warmest place to be that day!

 

This is Sydney, the windswept Australian Terrier!

Some dogs were there to PLAY! This is Buster, the shorthaired pointer.

 

Such sweet eyes.

And since the last session giveaway I did was so fabulous, I decided to hold another drawing for a free session.

This is the winner! Meet Amore the Maltese, and you’ll be seeing more of this adorable pup soon!

 

I’ll leave you with one more of this little dude. Have a great week!

Chewie! ~ {Gulf Breeze, FL Pet Photography by Allison Shamrell}

Thursday, August 4th, 2011

 

This is possibly the funniest puppy I’ve ever met.

 

Chewie is a six-month-old shih tzu with more spunk, energy, and hilarious personality than practically any other dog his age. Or at least, any other dog his age that I’VE ever met! His mom, Tina, loves him to the moon and back, and maybe the family cats don’t love him quite as much, but trust me, this dog lives a pretty sweet life. But how could he not, with that face? I know I almost plunked him into my camera bag and took him home to meet Bailey.

 

Enjoy the video of his squishable little face, and a few of my favorite images below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for a great session, Tina!

Britney & Toto ~ {Gulf Breeze, FL Pet Photographer Allison Shamrell}

Friday, April 8th, 2011

These are a couple of lucky dogs!

Britney is the dark-colored cockapoo, and Toto is the tan little yorkiepoo. These pups have two loving little girls to play with, a beach in their backyard, and an adorable little stroller they get wheeled around in! If that isn’t the puppy trifecta, I don’t know what is.

Here is a short video slideshow with a few highlights from our time together. Below it are a few of my favorite photos… these dogs were such good sports throughout our session! (Their mom, Leslie, showed some pretty impressive hustle, too!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Leslie, Emma & Kate! I’m excited to see your products once they come in!

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

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

You know, these dogs really had me going.

I first met Kin and Star in February’s Best Paw Forward dog training class, which is Pensacola’s premier obedience program. They were standout students, absolutely nailing every command and gesture. It was so impressive! (I’m really resisting a “teacher’s pet” joke right now… it’s hard.) And what’s even more incredible: their handlers are boys in the 5th and 7th grades! I was absolutely stunned that boys so young had trained these dogs to be so obedient!

So, when it came time for their session, I was actually a little concerned that we’d only get posed shots, simply because the dogs were so good at being told what to do! I wasn’t sure how well their personalities would shine through.

Ha!

These dogs were a total joy to work with. Turns out, when they’re not in class, they’re just as full of energy and personality as any other dog. Kin is the purebred golden retriever, and boy is she gorgeous! Star is the slightly-smaller golden retriever mix, and her owners rescued her about a year ago. She’s one lucky pup! In the first picture,  Star is on the left and Kin is on the right.

Enjoy the pictures!

 

 

 

 

I told you! Gorgeous!

 

 

 

I’ll call you soon, Rebecca! It should only take me a few months to go through the rest of the photos! :)

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!!
