Travel Session ~ Boris & Matilda the Great Danes in Canberra

My first Canberra session was with Boris and Matilda, two Great Danes who are lucky enough to live out in the country, with a huge paddock to romp and play in! And play they did, chasing each other around with much abandon.

Client Session ~ Flick the Bull Terrier on the Gold Coast

Pizzey Park in Miami is somewhere I’ve been many times with my own dogs when I lived on the Gold Coast. There’s the most beautiful pine forest, a big lake and a little sandy beach, along with lots of other pretty nooks and crannies for photographing dogs.

Client Session ~ Clive the Staffy Maltese Mix in Mackay

The second of my sessions booked for beautiful Mackay, I was really looking forward to meeting the fabled Clive! He’s owned by one of my good friend’s partner’s sister (follow that?) and I’d already been privy to some sneaky peek shots of this rather unusual looking boy. I found out later after the DNA test results came in, he’s a Staffy with a little bit of Maltese thrown in – I can definitely see that mix in him!
