There is something about the profile of a beautiful great dane that is so…perfect. And in Rocky’s case…regal. He’s gorgeous and majestic and so sweet. He made an appearance on the blog before but this face had to be a Friday Face! And because he’s so beautiful, he gets two Friday Face pics!

Happy Friday Face!

Ok. So, a while back – 2010 to be exact – I photographed William for my friend Kelly’s annual Christmas card. I have been doing this for years – since he was a baby actually. Don’t ask me why I never shared these little gems with you, but today, the spirit moved me to do just that. Wait…I know…William was not fond of one of these images – his arabesk to be exact. But, hey, it was his idea!! And, oh so cute.

He’s adorable. There is no mistaking that. So, I need to share these images with you and I hope they bring a smile to your face this Friday!

One more. I think William would approve of this because he looks extra cool here with his skateboard!

Happy Friday Face!

This is Sam. He is actually my mom’s “new” cat. I put new in parenthesis because although she has had him for several months, I haven’t yet blogged about him.

Since he has been living with my mom, he has had several different names. Now, it seems he has found a name that he likes. Sam. So, Sam he is!

Just a few words to describe Sam. He is definitely very cool, outgoing, soft, floppy, big, funny, busy, and silly. He keeps my mom company, and he keeps her laughing. All good qualities for sure!

Happy Friday, Sam I am, Face!

I photographed Gunnar a few years ago. He was a beautiful brindle boy with a sweet, goofy personality. I really had a lot of fun photographing him.

Shortly before Christmas I ran into, Melissa, Gunnar’s “mom” and she shared with me that he had recently passed away.

Oh, these amazing animals. They have such short lives, but such a great and amazing impact on us while they are here.

Here he is, looking incredible. He was so so nice to photograph!!

Rest in peace, dear, sweet Gunnar.

Happy Friday Face!

Remember Sascha? She was the “face” a few weeks ago. Well, Sascha is not the only gorgeous Rottie in her family.

Say hello to Kodi. He’s a bit younger than Sascha, and extremely friendly and very glad to meet ya! During our session he wanted nothing more than to mow me over with his big face and lots of kisses.

Here are a couple of film images of Kodi and his fabulous expressions. These images show two things….one, how amazing b/w film is and why I will never stop shooting it, and, two, how adorable and very handsome Kodi is!!

Happy Friday Face!!

I was once told that it’s all about the tongue with me. (Donna, are you reading this??) I think I may have mentioned that a while ago. But, yeah, I do try to get “tongue” shots. With dogs, it’s pretty easy…I can “make” it happen. But, with cats? Now that’s a different story. You definitely cannot make a cat stick out their tongue. So, you must know that when this happened, I was quite happy.

This is Meow. He is grumpy. He hissed at me. But, one thing’s for sure, he loves his monkey. Give him his monkey and he acts just like a kitten, even though he’s 16 years old!!

So…..Happy Friday Tongue, err, FACE!!!

When deciding on this week’s face, I had a tough job. You see, Hooper has so many incredible faces it was hard to pick just one. Hooper is quite a character. He moves slowly and stubbornly but with unrivaled determination. One glance in your direction, and his face can definitely melt your heart.

Here is just one look at this very handsome guy.

Happy Friday Face!

I know I’m being a bit predictable here. If you happened to read my previous post entitled “Ian,” you may have had a suspicion as to who was going to be this week’s Friday Face. Yes, it’s Bracken, with yet another one of her awesome expressions. For this photo, I sat her in front of the cool green, peeling paint doors. I know she was wondering…”How long must I sit here?” She really is such a good girl. She wants to accommodate, and she does. Although, I think her expressions are a dead giveaway to what she really thinks about the whole process!

So….Happy Friday Bracken Face to you!!!

Lucy was the winner of this year’s Pottsmuttster Dog Show, and we met up on Saturday for her session!! She is just so sweet, and happy go lucky! Not to mention that her color is just stunning!

Here is a little peek at Lucy as she wishes everyone a very….
Happy Friday Face!

This is Neko. Actually her full name is Koneko. I’m pretty sure she loves having her photo taken. She has two Shih Tzu sisters, but whenever I turned around, there was Neko waiting for her close up!

Do you think she knows that she bares a resemblance to Groucho Marx? Haha! I won’t tell her if you don’t!!

Happy Friday Face!
