Isabella

Little Isabella - What a lovely girl! Well behaved and such a star:)
An image from a recent photo session at Four Seasons. Hope to see you again Izzy.

Bailey and Nala

A couple of my favourite cat images from a recent pet portrait session at Four Seasons.

Bailey and Nala were such lovely cats.. a bit nervous, as most cats are, in a different environment. I would have loved to adopt them both - as they were very laid back and had gorgeous gentle natures :)

Jazz @ Four Seasons

A couple of images from Jazz's pet photo session held last month at Four Seasons Pet Store went pretty much according to plan - after the initial excitement of being in a new place and all those new smells, Jazz settled down nicely - I think I wore him down in the end :)

Jazz is an Anatolian Shepherd – who came from the SPCA when he was one year old. Four families had put in their requests at the SPCA for Jazz – but the family I met were the lucky ones and totally adore their adopted companion. Jazz is 7 years old, has a gorgeous temperament – loves people, kids and babies but is scared of injections at the Vet!!

It was great to meet Jazz's family too !

Louie arrived in excitable style at the Four Seasons store, ready for his pet portrait- and was a delight to photograph. Very friendly and a lot of fun to be around - Louie did stay still

(in one place)for lots of great shots - here are a couple of them. Great to meet you Louie - and Nigel. Hope to see you again one day :)

Chanel

This is Chanel - isn't she gorgeous! Wearing a beautiful jacket bought by a friend of Chanel's owner, from Posh Pets in Brisbane. Chanel was such a darling to photograph and even smiled on command. What a star!! I know my George would love you - being the same size and all . :) Hope to see you again Chanel.

Pet Portraits weekend

A busy weekend for us at Four Seasons Glen Innes- doing pet photography during their anniversary celebrations. Similar to last year - we photographed a large number of cats and dogs (no mice this time... phew!)

My husband Mike came along this time as assistant animal "wrangler" as I was suffering from laringhitis - and not firing on all "soccer mom" voice cylinders! He was a great help and was very keen to bring home a large number of the cats and dogs to our home in the countryside.
This is Rami - who came all the way from Pukekohe with owner Susan. Rami was very well behaved ,well trained with a lovely temperament and a delight to photograph! It was lovely to photograph and meet you both :)

Ruby - the Top Cat at Four Seasons

Next month is the anniversary of the Four Seasons Pet Store in Glen Innes. This year again - I will be photographying customers pets - which was a great sucess last year. Pet portraits will be at a special rate and bookings are essential during their anniversary celebrations . These sessions are arranged through the store and bookings are necessary to hold your place on a particular day. More info on this will be available soon.

As we had some advertising shots to do in advance - after the storm had abated yesterday- we travelled up to GI to visit the store. We grabbed some brunch first at the famous Nosh store next door and devoured divine corn fritters and perfect coffee.

Ruby was in great form at Four Seasons when we arrived and posed nicely for time - before "active cat" mode took over . Cats are like that - they have mind of their own...:) (I have four of them)

We got lots of great shots - but confused a few customers as they noticed (stepped around) me with Ruby laying on the floor. The regular pet store customers love Ruby (well-- unless they are of the four-legged dog variety) - she has a great purrsonality and is one very gorgeous young redhead. See you again in a few weeks Ruby.
