Meg and Puppy Nicole | Mt Shasta Portrait and Wedding Photographer

Over Thanksgiving, my sister came up with her new guide dog puppy, Nicole.  She was introduced to the whole family of dogs.  If you follow my posts, you may know I have a black lab/aussie mix named Chloe.  My parents also have a yellow lab named Carissa.  Fun fact – Carissa was my sister, Megan’s, previous guide dog puppy.  About half of all guide dog puppies in training flunk out for various reasons (Carissa for being too sensitive), so when she was about 8 months old she came to live with our parents.  For Meg and Nicole’s shoot, we included Carissa in a few shots as well.

John’s Senior Portraits | Mt Shasta Portrait and Wedding Photographer

I’ve known John’s family for a while, since our moms both work together – and his dad is our dentist (funny, adorable, small town things).  So, you can imagine I was excited about doing his senior portraits this fall.  I just want to point out that this bright, athletic kid is only 16, has great grades and is involved in varsity sports.  We had a blast on the shoot, which he brought his mom to.  I posted these photos to Facebook a long time ago, and thought it was about time that I shared them here as well!
