Hollywood Dog/NewYork Dog wanting MY photos...

Do you all remember the Dogster contest Ki won?

Well, the lady who is in charge of Kiara's photoshoot prize has been searching my area for a photographer to come photograph Ki.

I told her how some of you said I should mention that I'm into photography. Well, she is unable to find a photographer for such work in my area and is interesting in seeing some of my pictures of Ki.


The problem is.. which ones do I send?
Someone please help me decide. If you post a picture, please post the date I posted it on (will help me find the original on my computer.)

I'm sending her an e-mail now asking what type of photos she's interested in and how many she needs.

Congrats, Kay! I would definitely send her some of your most recent ones.. I'll go find the link.

Love those 2..
If I find anymore I'll post them for you.

on 6-19 the "did you say treat" pic

on 6-12 jumping off the pier and the close up at the pier

just a few of my favorites :D

This one from 2 days ago was just adorable

There is a thread from january with lots of good close-ups...http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...ighlight=kiara
These pics are very clear even though she is moving. I like the wave, bow, laying like a proper lady, and standing by the pool.

This is great, Kay! Congratulations! I'll go look for some of my favourites of yours (lol...I have tons, but I'll try to find my most favourite). :)

Thanks again everyone!

Maybe I'll just send this thread to the lady to give her a little look-see at them?

i cant make my mind i love like a zillion i cant cut down to one..........i think you should send her links so she can see them and tell you which ones are the ones she likes best, personally i love every single one, she so photogenic and you are so talented........... :D

As far as selecting, keep in mind everything you know about good photography - consider the background, the lighting, unusual angles, focus, etc. Use photos that would be included in a "professional" portfolio. There's several on this thread already that look like good choices. While Ki always looks adorable, some stand out as more successful photographs. Good luck!

Ditto Orangotango & Flatcoatluver's selections. I agree with Cyber-sibes that you should pick the most professional looking but I'm not the best judge of that. Show her as many as you can! This is so exciting, good luck!

Oh man Kay... I couldn't pick a favorite.... but that is so cool that your own photography may get published!! What a way to get noticed!

Just what I was going to suggest.

Pick favorites? You're kidding, right? :p No help from me...I could never ever decide!I nearly faint when I see her pictures!

Pick a favorite?! Yeah, right... like that's even possible!

However, this does make me want to FINALLY send in my subscription form for The Hollywood Dog mag!

That is wonderful Kay, how exciting :D. Sending the thread link is a great idea. Goodluck and please keep us upto date.

Congratulations Kay! What a wonderful opportunity for you. Sending your photo links is a great idea - shows your versatility in taking good photos.

I have so many favourites, it is impossible to pick the best one. The attached photo is one that made me really smile - Kiara's expression is priceless.

Good luck and keep us informed.

Thats great news Kay! I am so happy for you! I was begining to think they forgot about you.

I agree. While every pic of her is adorable, some may be a little blurred or not completely focused, possibly hard to make out in places due to the lighting, etc..
I don't have much time to go thorugh & pick pics for you but you've got a lot of great photos Kay and there's quite a few in this thread.

I wish you the best of luck!

Isn't there a picture of Kiara with a ton of tennis balls in her mouth? I think it was Kiara. I just remember it was a cute photo and well done. If it wasn't Kiara, then oops...disregard this message.

Anyhow, congratulations. I sometimes pick up NY Dog magazine - it's a cool read.

:)

Kay, you have taken so many wonderful pictures of Kiara, you can hardly go wrong. You will let all of us know when it is going to be published right? I have never seen the magazine, but I will definitely buy a copy with Kiara in it.

Good pictures always emit emotions. Here are a few that truly make my heart (and mind!) race:

(the first one)

http://petevents.com/~simba/Post2-18-2006/26.jpg
This is one of the better ones because I love her position, although it would've been *amazing* to see the intensity of her facial expression.

You are a natural.
