Resolutions

Well, it’s been some time since I have posted photos, and even longer since I have taken Nash out with my camera in hand. Those who know me well know that I have been more than stretched thin this Fall, and I rang in the New Year in a less than favourable way. But, with final exams done and dusted, and 2018 underway, I have decided to spend this year doing more of the little things that bring me the utmost joy! And so here are a few photos of me looking at my puppy in a different light, appreciating all his little features and quirks, and giving him some adventure time that he deserves after hanging in with me through what seemed like endless weeks of serious cramming! I love you my Nashy Boy!

Puppy Paradise

With about an hour to spare after a busy weekend helping temperament test these little ones, I took out my camera (even though I didn’t notice it had the wrong lens) to snap a few shots before hopping in the car for the long drive home. It was short… but extremely sweet! I always love my trips to Petawawa!

The Big 0-2

Happy Birthday to Nash’s sister, Molly! We are so fortunate to have watched her grow in the last 2 years, and it is great to see our pups play and bond with each other! Molly has already done some amazing work in the Obedience and Rally ring, and she is such a sweet, loving girl!

Meagan and Osman welcomed us into their new home a few weeks back, and here are some shots of the pups – and Paisley, the cat!

Appreciate

After some time off, I am going back to work. Even though I am excited to start this new chapter, it is also bittersweet because in this time I was able to spend a lot of time with my little fur ball and best buddy! We have had some great adventures, and things will change a bit, but the adventures will continue just in a different way! It is time to savour and appreciate the few days we have left of daily runs and impromptu photoshoots, so that is exactly what I will do!

Unapologetic Love

After a hard working weekend for Nash I happily captured a lazy day in his life, and I am glad I can also give him those days to unwind after he works his heart out for us!

Brights

I had this idea for a photo challenge a few weeks ago for a “colourful” photo theme. I never got around to execution until today. Here are a few shots of my oh-so-patient puppy helping make house chores more exciting!

Through the Fog

This is one of my favourite posts yet because it was part of a fun experiment I did to shoot outside of my comfort zone. I love the results!

Yesterday morning I woke up to a neighbourhood curtained in fog. I am part of the “our 52 – lifestyle project” group and I had been trying to envision a scenario to shoot for this week’s photo theme. I find it difficult sometimes because most people have kids and it’s easy to shoot with them and their activities. I love shooting my dog but I hardly ever get in front of the lens. With a tripod, camera and leash in hand we walked down to the (thus far) undeveloped plot of land, or the field as we call it, and I tried to produce something new and something interesting – I love them!
