Thank you to everyone who shared their Marley(s). I loved seeing each and every one of them.

Winner #1: The one that made me laugh the most because I can relate to plant dirt + carpets!

Winner #2

And a few others that I loved and had to share!

I really love older dogs. They tend to get sweeter with age, are pretty much set in their ways, and love to lay around all day.

Brandy was no exception. She was in her favorite spot (right by her Mom) on the couch. She has such a gentle soul.

Besides, my little country road and I have a special relationship.

This is my favorite image from the shoot so I thought I would show it in both versions because they each take on a really different feel.

In Black + White





Sassy!


Last Frame! See Ya!

So what is a girl to do when it is dark out and a Great Dane is following her around the house?

A Series!

So far I think I have done the Peanut Butter Series (my fave) and The Flashlight Series. This one wasn’t planned but it quickly turned into The Gum Series. I always have some form of Extra Gum in my mouth, which is great because a lot of the time I use it as a way to get the attention of dogs. No dog I know can deny The Gum.

So I cranked up the 5D to ISO 3200 and sat on the stairs with G.

Hey Mom, what do you have there?

Ahhhh GUM!

Attack Gum!


She may be losing her marbles a bit (or maybe I am), but she is my girl and always, always, always makes me laugh.
