Pose Practice


It will come as no surprise that I've been plotting a particular photo set up for a holiday card photo this year and of course it includes Charlie.  We took some practice shots yesterday after Tim dutifully selected an appropriate chapeaux for Charlie at our favorite local pet shop.  (Tim's particularity in selecting items for Charlie always takes me aback.  We just about came to blows in the store when it momentarily appeared that Charlie's size was sold out.  Fortunately, a single large hat was tucked behind a row of mediums and thus, the meltdown was averted!)

Once again, Charlie demonstrated his mettle and graciously tolerated the humiliation.  For anyone expecting a holiday card this year, don't fret:  I'll be using a different photo!

Carolyn,

Knowing these dogs, you'll get the most beautiful Christmas card picture ever! Lily was great for us and she posed like a pro with our kids last year! If you'd like, send me your address via email so I can add you to our Christmas card mailing list! Hope things are going well on your end...

I'm stopping by from Michelle's blog - Full Soul Ahead

I've been exploring all the photos and the shot of Charlie and Tim on the bench in the hike post is one of the most touching photos I have ever seen. It speaks to the value of all creatures and the unconditional love of a dog.

Charlie shines even without all his holiday lights but that is a great shot.

Made me remember all the arguements we have when we put the lights on the tree - every year. I think this year we'll take a clue from Charlie!!
