Twelve years after I did his puppy adoption photos Twelve years after I did his puppy adoption photos, Snorley came for a studio session, which was a birthday present for his owner.Happy Birthday Simon, I hope you had a great day yesterday 🥳He chose a ten image box set and got three puppy photos along with seven prints from the studio shoot. I gifted him some goodies too – a leash to match the @RuffinedDesigns collar he bought, a Squishy Face Crew book and some stinky dog treats!—⁣ Please do not download or repost without my permission (Snorley’s owner you don’t need permission!).⁣ —⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #staffymix #rescuedog #batearsdog #printyourphotos #sydneypetphotographer
Windy-Lou’s person was the winner of my Random A Windy-Lou’s person was the winner of my Random Acts of Kindness Day giveaway. When I scouted the location it was the middle of a very hot weekday. I asked Megan if it would be busy in the afternoon and if people obey the dogs on leash rule – she wasn’t sure so we just hoped for the best.When I turned up there were multiple kids teams playing sport and off lead dogs everywhere – a pet photographer’s worst nightmare! But Windy-Lou, who’s only 6 months old (adopted at 3mos) was a bloody superstar. I thoroughly enjoyed photographing her and I’m excited to share the final 10 photos that were chosen.If you’d love images like these of your dog let’s make it happen. There’s never going to be a better time than now 🥰—⁣ Business pages, please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ —⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #rescuedog #runningdog #mixedbreed #sydneypetphotographer
Wishing you all a very happy Easter. Is anyone doi Wishing you all a very happy Easter. Is anyone doing anything / going anywhere fun? We’re staying home so we’ll be hanging with the dogs mostly and I’ll probably find lots of jobs for my handy husband to do! I’ll also be working on Spike’s “stay” because these photos were not easy to take 😅—⁣ Please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ —⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #rescuedogs #easterdogs #merlebully #blockheads #reddogs #pittieparty #professionalpetphotographer #sydneydogphotographer
Did you know that I custom make dog wares too? Her Did you know that I custom make dog wares too? Here are some dogs that stopped by my studio to collect their new outfits and pose for a few pics. (Yes, one is my own dog so he had very little say in the matter!)The brand is called @ruffineddesigns if you want to check it out. There are lots of pre-made sets in the ready to ship section. —⁣ Please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ —⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #dogmodel #rescuedog #staffygram #dobermanpinscher #studiopetphotographer #sydneypetphotographer #ruffineddesigns
Please give your prolonged and genuine applause to Please give your prolonged and genuine applause to Spike, who has graduated from foster to foster fail 😎I don’t like macho dog names on boofy dogs but that’s not what we were going for with his new moniker. He’s named after one of our favourite frontmen, Spike Slawson from Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. If you’re not familiar with the band, do yourself a favour and familiarise yourself!When I collected Spike from the @rescue_hub kennels it was likely the first time he’d been separated from his brother (who’s been adopted to a home in Queensland) so he made a right racket in the back of the car for about 20 minutes - even though Butters and Ninja were in there too. When I put on MFATGGs he stopped crying, so I guess he must love them as much as we do 😄I took a long time to share his new name because I wanted to take this photo to accompany the announcement - and in order to get this photo I needed to first work on his training and also find a time that my favourite assistant / husband, Dave, was available to help. It was a big morning for Spike - he overcame his fear of the stairs at my studio, happily jumped onto the “stage”, wore a shirt that was definitely too small and then knocked it out of the park by wearing the sunglasses - what a little legend. We’ll have him playing the ukulele in no time!Welcome to the pack Baby Spike, Spikey or Spike Alfred Slawson if he’s in trouble. You can follow his journey on the @RuthlessRatpack insta.—⁣ Unless you’re tagged, please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ —⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #rescuedog #merlebully #blockhead #professionalpetphotographer #sydneydogphotographer
