sweet Rocket-boy.  quite cautious and ever-so-careful of strangers, especially the male variety.  smart and speedy and loyal-on-loyal to his people.  happy-dog, daily-miles-walking-buddy and couch-potato-movie-watcher extraordinaire.

sometimes-mama’s-boy and all-the-time-dad’s-buddy, you made me work for the smiles today, and it was the most fun afternoon ever.

i loved hanging with your kitty-sister, but running in the frozen field with you was (don’t tell her!) even better.  have a good year, Rocket-dog!

WOOF!  hugs – angela

i must confess, i have had no interest in pet portraits.  my oldest says he’d like to pursue doing them, but my joy in families, and new little baby-sweetness, and on-the-cusp-of-adventure high school seniors, and in blushing brides and nervous grooms and deep-wrinkled grandmas, has been more than enough.

i look in awe at the work of amazing artists who can let you into the very being of treasured family pets and wild animals alike, and i’m thankful for their work.  but till now, i haven’t been remotely tempted to try my hand at it.

being here with my parents in North Carolina, though, and being presented with some serious pet personality, has lured me to the challenge of capturing the large personalities of these family members.  i present to you Muffin, also known as the Queen of the Universe.

here’s hoping i can capture your dog  ”brother” in his shy sweetness, too, little kitty!

happy New Year with meows and hugs!!  –angela

oh-so-cold for a Florida winter morning.  damp grass, and i made them meet me early.  but there wasn’t a complaint – i met smiling eyes, gentlemanly hand-shakes, and brotherly love. plus some sweet puppies bundled snuggly-warm into a basket!  thank you so much, s. family, for the sweetest family-time.  looking forward to some of that venison, haha!

adam, seth, and johnny, you guys are super-cool and God has great plans for the three of you! 

mom and dad, you guys are awesome and it’s truly a pleasure to “hang” with you!  enjoy your sneak peek, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
