Oh my. This was my last fall session before all the leaves dropped, and I have to apologize to Maggie for the delay in blogging her wonderful pup. I was gone most of November so I hope you can forgive me! This fabulously handsome boy is a GWP named Otis, or as we tend to call him, Otie. Otis has had a rough beginning, adopted from a shelter as an adult and then sadly returned, before Maggie adopted him. Not surprisingly, he has some issues, which Maggie is working hard to correct. I have to admit due to his high level of distraction, this was one of my hardest sessions. Occasionally I would just give up and laugh, and eventually he’d come close enough to get a shot….depending on the speed of his fly-by. 🙂
Maggie warned me that we should not take it out at the very beginning, because Otie LOVES his soccer ball stuffie and goes crazy when he has it!
He was fully capable of stopping to take a look around and catch his breath, too — love the big tongue, Otie!
Enough rest!! Off he goes — I had a lot of photos like this one!
He can be quite the handsome poser, too. He also has an annoying habit of blending into his surroundings. Was Autumn the best season to have a session with Otis? Good thing his mom booked a winter session too!!
We HAD to go to the river, the colors at sunset there are so spectacular, and with all the birds, a perfect spot for Otis to show off his hunting instincts. I hardly got any shots of him where he wasn’t pointing!
However, Otie is not always so dignified. I couldn’t resist. Although he is intense, he is a goofball at heart.
The light reflecting the trees on the water was just unbelievable….and the perfect backdrop for Otis.
As always, ending with a beauty shot, and what Otie does best. 🙂 Until our snow session…..hope you enjoyed your sneak peek Maggie!
