Gizmo - The Alien

We are being taken over by aliens!!! No, not the big-headed, green-skinned creatures that are here to kill off mankind. No, this is the funny, big-toothed, scruffy kind that are here to steal our hearts. Yep! And that's exactly what Gizmo is...at least according to his mom. :)

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if aliens this cute took over the earth!

Gizmo's underbite stole the show and he had no problem showing it off for me in Charleston, SC a couple weeks ago!Ears down. Ears up. Which do you prefer? ;)A close up of that funny smile...And here is Gizzy workin' the profile...It was so much fun meeting this little "alien"! Thank you so much for being a part of the Charleston model call. I hope our paths cross again soon...maybe I can visit your planet one day!

Friday

TGIF! Everyone love Friday...especially when it's a dog as handsome and unique as this Blue Merle Catahoula who, by the way, was rescued from Palmetto Paws. I've never photographed a dog that looks anything like Friday so I was beyond thrilled to have him in front of my camera. On a gorgeous day. With fun people. In Charleston. Word.Friday's unique coloring was perfect for the background of old-time Charleston!He honestly looks like he should be a doggy model of some sort!

He really knows how to work his angles...And he has a super-cute, charming smile! :)We stumbled into an alley that had this gorgeous citrus plant. Friday was intrigued and I was excited to photograph him with it. (Look at that cute face!!!)Thank you so much to Friday and his family for coming out and spending some time with us in Charleston. Don't doubt for a minute that I might ring you again to steal Friday for another session!

Lilian

A cute, wet, orange face with a huge smile was send in an email and three girls instantly fell in love. No, it wasn't a picture of some hot model guy coming out of the ocean with a fake tan. This is what happened when Brittani, Dana, and I got Lilian's submission for our Charleston model call. Lilian is a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever who apparently spends as much free time as possible getting wet and going swimming. Her mom was super excited at the thought of getting pictures of her when she was actually dry! Luckily for her, we were more than happy to oblige. :)

Lilian, aka Lily, often causes quite a stir when she's out in public and people tend to flock to her because of her unique qualities. I'm personally a sucker for her happy smile...

Oh and the feet. I just love the feet. So girly and feminine! This almost makes me wish my hands were hairy. Then I remember I'm a person.She's just a beauty...She also has a Princess Leia impression. She puts her ears back to recreate the hair effect. Pretty awesome!Thank you so much, Lily, for staying dry for us while we photographed you. It was an honor!
