It was really nice to hear that Abby and Lola’s owners decided to book me after being gifted a copy of my Tails of Sydney book. They’d seen my volunteer work and that I live with four adopted dogs so knew I was the person to task with photographing their two rescue girls.

We started with some portraits but Abby quickly let me know that it was ball first (and second and third!).

Lola wasn’t bothered with the ball, which is good because Abby wasn’t giving it up for anyone! She was more into sticks. Apparently they’re pretty tasty.

After Abby had fetched her ball approximately 3,862 times I moved location to do some portraits in the giant roots of a Moreton Bay Fig tree. Can you guess what I used to get her to look at the camera? Hence the happy face. Lola’s very sad face was caused by making her wait for a treat. Sorry, Lola!

I thought getting photos of the girls sitting together would be an impossible task but they actually nailed it in no time at all. The second one is currently being printed onto canvas for their home. They also ordered a large album, so look out for a digital flip through of it on my Instagram account in a few days.

Thank you for the entertainment Abby and Lola. True to their breeds they’re both funny characters!
