Dog of the Week - Week Eighteen | Bendigo Pet Photographer

4/30/2015

0 Comments

 
This week I would like to introduce Braille, one of the sweetest, most gentle dogs around. My close friend found Braille as an adult dog from a breeder for companionship while she studied interstate away from home. Braille shares her home now with three snugly cats and a kelpie named Wolf, who loves to round her up.
Braille loves water, sticks, balls, rolling in things and cuddles, her fur is always full of prickles and evidence that she has been having a good time, and true to her breed, you wont often find Braille at home without some sort of stuffed animal in her mouth.
Introducing my favourite golden retriever, Braille:

Dog of the Week - Week Seventeen | Bendigo Pet Photographer

4/22/2015

Meet Charlie, Mr Brown and Brown Man. Charlie is a beloved family pet, owned by my parents. He is a super sweet, 9 year old chocolate labrador, who is completely at home in the central Victorian bush and countryside. Charlie spends most of his days lazing in the sun, barking at kangaroos and finding putrid things to roll in. He is an incredibly gentle and polite boy, who will always wait for others to walk in front of him. his only impolite habit is when he decides he needs more attention and promptly head butts his way in between one's legs. This can be extremely awkward especially for those short in stature like my mother.
Without further ado, meet Charlie, our dog for week seventeen. Photographed in his own backyard in Mandurang.

A Day with The Dogs

Today I decided to spend a work-free afternoon out at Cairn Curran with my two furry ones. I love photographing dogs splashing in the water, something about the sunshine, the energy and the little crystals of water falling every where makes for a magical image.

DOG OF THE WEEK - WEEK SIXTEEN | BENDIGO PET PHOTOGRAPHER

4/16/2015

Remember Sam  the Labrador from a couple of weeks ago? Well week sixteen's dog is Sam's little dog brother, whose name unfortunately, escapes me. This little ball of energy is a total sweetheart. Being whippet mix, I was expecting all the naughtiness and over the top energy that I get from my girl, but I was pleasantly surprised when this little guy walked so nicely on the lead and listened to me when I needed him to. He was also very gentle and cuddly, which must be the whippet breed coming out in him. I hope you enjoy his photos.

exploring the oak forest - Harcourt, Victoria

I was lucky enough to photograph some beautiful children on a day out exploring Harcourt's stunning Oak Forest at the base of Mount Alexander. The kids had a magical time running, hiding, kicking leaves and playing games. It was a beautiful location and I can't wait to go back.

These goofy siblings were out to entertain me I think, they really enjoyed putting on a show for my camera, I had performances of Ninja karate skills, hide and seek and excellent rock climbing throughout the day.

Dog of the Week - Week Fifteen | Bendigo Pet Photographer

This week's dog doesn't have a name, well, I don't know her name. I spotted her at the petrol station as we were filling up for our six hour journey home after the long weekend. The rain was absolutely pounding down, and this poor, sad, soggy girl was tied into the back of her owner's ute. They were nice enough to leave the ute parked under shelter whilst they sat inside enjoying their warm cups of coffee. No doubts that this gorgeous girl is a loyal, working dog, as we were in the midst of East Gippsland's coastal farming land. I just had to snap a photo of her sorry looking face before we took off.

Festival weddings and Easter Beaches

4/7/2015

Over the Easter long weekend I was lucky enough to be a part of my beautiful cousin's wedding as her bridesmaid. Which meant I had yet another excuse to visit my favourite place in the world. A town called Nungurner on the East Gippsland coast. A town full of adventures for me as a child, as well as now as an adult, exploring the lakes systems and the forests and the beaches. I will always come back here for as long as I live! So I thought I would share with you some photos from the wedding and from my favourite place.

The wedding really was like a three day camping festival. We went around for BBQ and drinks the night before, then wedding on Saturday and the morning after every one piled in for bacon and egg sandwiches.

A special visit from this kookaburra made their wedding truly magical! My cousin and her (now) husband rescued an injured fledgling kookaburra when they were early into their relationship. She was not able to fly, so they raised her until she was strong enough and happy enough to live out her days at a wildlife sanctuary. Kookaburras have become an important symbol of their love, and Jess proposed using a feather. the wedding party all wore kookaburra feathers proudly. So it was really an amazing and remarkable thing, that in the midst of the reception, this beautiful blue winged fellow decided to sit atop the marquee at first, and watch over all of the guests as we waited for the bride and groom to arrive. He later found his position on the corner of the cool room until night fell.

The forecast for the entire long weekend was set for wind and rain, which would not have worked as the wedding planners were hopeful enough not to worry about a plan B! Luckily, mother nature held out until every one was home, safe before she released her almighty downpour. Today, what was once an amazingly set up festival wedding with camping and marquees galore, resembles more of a muddy swamp, not accessible to cars other than 4WD. So thank you mother nature, for adding your stunning weather to this magical weekend. And congratulations to my gorgeous cousin, Jess and her partner for life, Tim.
