I first met Vi at the MDBA Awards dinner in Sydney last year. We’re both members of the same dog forum so we kept in touch and later became Facebook friends. Even though I’d never met Charlie and Emmy before our shoot on Saturday I felt like I already knew them from all her photos and stories about them. I was warned that Emmy could be a bit of a snob so I arrived early to give her time to get used to me. Luckily she warmed to me straight away so off we went to the park for their glamour shots!

The Autumn light was just perfect. It made for some gorgeous bubbly bokeh shots. My favourite!

Charlie has some health issues so he can’t get around too fast, but that’s ok cause Emmy did enough running for two. And boy can this girl run fast!!

My duck toy was to thank for these great head tilts. She only gave me two, so I was lucky to get them both.

Dance Emmy, dance!

Charlie was tired after his big expedition, so he put his head down for a rest on the couch.

Emmy assumed position as watchdog at the front door!

Thanks for a fun shoot Vi, Richie, Charlie and Emmy! I hope you enjoy your gallery.
