If you follow my Facebook page you might remember me posting a phone pic of a Shar Pei puppy when her owner booked a session in November. Due to terrible rain last summer we had to reschedule several times. Last week we finally got to go ahead with the shoot with Peityn and her new little brother Kai.

Half way through the shoot it started raining, but luckily there was an enclosed balcony we were able to utilise.

I was fascinated by Kai’s velvety looking wrinkles, but got quite a surprise when I stroked them and discovered that Shar Peis are actually quite prickly. I wonder how many people would buy the toilet paper they’re used to sell if they knew that!
