Doggie Pics: Maize the lab

Meet Maize, a gorgeous 7 year old yellow lab. Actually, you met Maize in early February. You all might remember Maize from Amanda & Rob's amazing wedding. She was a little nervous on the wedding day around me, but once we got her outside where she could roam free, we were all good!

Since I'm still fairly new to the dog portrait scene, I learned a few more things today:

1. You might have to lay in the mud to get some sweet shots. Maize loved to go where it was muddiest:)
2. After 2 days of running around taking pics of gorgeous labs, my legs are sore:)

Anyway, enjoy the pics!

Maize did this sweet trick where she balanced a treat on her nose, then when given the signal she would catch it in mid-air!

She loved to chase the tennis ball as well

Maize decided she could only chase the ball for so long

It's tough, but I think this one is my favorite

Thanks Maize for playing in the mud with me. And a big thanks goes out to Amanda & Rob as well for letting me get your beautiful dog a little dirty:)

Check back tomorrow night for 3 more doggie shoots!
