San Diego Family & Pet Portraits
A few years ago, I got a fun message from Debbie & Jason. They had a cool idea: they wanted Family Pet Portraits taken with their two bulldogs in Balboa Park. I was super excited and said, “Let’s do it!”
Now, I don’t always take pictures of pets, but I’ve learned some tricks along the way. I even wrote a BLOG POST for anyone who wants to try taking cool shots of their furry friends at home. Bulldogs were new for me, though. And on our day at the park, I learned something neat: bulldogs have such a big personality! They’re really cute, and they love to play, but they also get sleepy pretty fast. After a short while of playing and walking, they looked like they wanted a very long nap.
Now jump to a year or two later, I got another note from Debbie & Jason. Yay! They were ready for more Family Pet Portraits! I felt a bit sad when they told me their sweet white bulldog wasn’t with them anymore. But there was also happy news: they had a new puppy to introduce!
When we met again, the energy was fantastic. The new puppy was all wiggly and playful, and their other bulldog seemed to enjoy being a “big sibling.” We spent the day running around, trying different spots in the park, and capturing all the cute moments. Those bulldog faces? Just too adorable for words!
For anyone in San Diego thinking of getting family photos, especially with pets, remember this: every pet has its own personality, just like us. And capturing that in a photo makes for special memories you can keep forever. If you’re thinking about it, I’d love to help make those memories with you. After all, San Diego is not just our home; it’s where our stories come to life, especially with our four-legged family members by our side!
Can’t say that I’ve had more fun at a shoot than this lately. I mean really, look at those adorable doggie faces!
Of course!
