The Elegant Clarita


Clarita is a gorgeous and stately white German Shepherd who I had the privilege of photographing in her family home. She's a senior dog and unfortunately battling some health issues. Clarita's Mom wanted to take advantage of their time left together with a beautiful portrait session of the whole family. We chose to do the session in their backyard, where Clarita was most comfortable and relaxed.

A beautiful Canvas


Clarita's backyard is beautifully landscaped and have many colorful elements which made for a perfect backdrop for her creamy white coat. Another fun addition - Clarita's Dad is an artist! We used one his gorgeous paintings as a backdrop too!

Lasting Memories


After the session, Clarita's family opted for a family portrait in a modern float-frame and also an heirloom signature album that contained the images from her session. The album has a 100% leather cover which is very durable and will last a lifetime.
