Trying to get back on track. San Diego peeps watch your email in the next day or so, will have gallery and passwords available. These were the only two cats that showed up for the Tuscan Willow Pet Boutique shoot. Bella and Dre.
Cats are not the same as photographing dogs, but we can still connect and get great moments with their human. Funny thing happened while I was photographing these two felines. They managed to get comfortable in a corner of the shooting area, behind a metal staircase. I ended up shooting through the stairs as to not upset them. I kind of forgot about the banister and when I was getting up punctured my head. When I say puncture–it was just that. I should have taken a photo of the blood dripping down my face. I tend to do some stupid things in the name of a photograph. Ask my friend Erika how I managed to capture her lovely sunset maternity photos on the beaches of Hawaii. That involved some blood shed too.
Once again, thank you for all your support and kind words about the passing of Riley. Every day has been an on and off tear fest for me. It gets a tad better each day but something crazy will set me off and cause me to break down over the silliest things. I am trying to take baby steps.

We are so much the same as in “Klutz”….I can trip on nothing and get the hugest bruise for a month, and who can forget the time I stabbed myself with scissors just before a maternity shoot… Uh had to cancel that one…..8 stitches later… Take care—

Pam – they look so great… and we will always remember the pain you endured to get a good shot of them where THEY decided to be photgraphed.
I wanted to tell you how terribly sorry I am about Riley… I cried my eyes out when I read your blog. My thoughts are with you as Im sure his beautiful soul will always be, too.
