Lovely Lily the Lab
Lily was one of the easiest dogs I have ever photographed. She is sweet, playful, adorable, fun-loving, patient, obedient, loving, smart, man you name it. I love her.
I knew the shoot was going to go well because the very first shot I took was exactly the kind of shot I was aiming for, only that shot was an accident because I hadn't adjusted the settings yet. It held the perfect settings for the high-key shots I was really hoping to get during our shoot. Call it Serendipity.
the 'parents shot'. Awww...
Lily is like a blonde Samson. Can't you just picture the two of them as boyfriend and girlfriend? Totally...
More high-key shots. These next handful were done digitally, meaning in photoshop. The series after those were done manually- meaning- in the camera. The eyes are cool in the digitally processed images, but I met Lily and I know her eyes don't look like that so I prefer the 'natural' ones best. Looks more like 'her'.
The 'naturally taken' high-key shots.
And, of course, no Cowbelly shoot is complete without the blue sky shots. (I told you I'm obsessed.)
Hope you enjoyed Lily. I LOVE HER!!
Stumble It!

I'm a pet photographer from Edmonton, AB and I check your blog often. I love your photos!
Ahhhh! Lily is beautiful. Your shots are amazing!
{love} these images!
i was taking pictures of a retriever today!
if you don't mind my asking: what camera and lens do you normally use?
Love that sweet brown nose and honey colored eyes - pretty!
Hi Pen!
I use the Canon EOS 5D + 20mm Canon prime lens + 24-70mm L-series zoom. The zoom takes great shots but I love the wide-angle look.
Great shots Jamie!
What a beautiful dog!

OMG....did you have a few photos to post or what??? They all look awesome and yes, I like your new b/w conversion better than the old one as well. It has a little bit more depth and contrast. You must be tired...you are workin' like a dog! (pun intended).
I love all the high key photos. They work so well with Lily's colouring.
