Photograph of the Day 11/365 Pet Portrait | Pet Photographer Frederick MD

This pet photograph was taken of a Border Collie and he belongs to one of the veterinary assistants at Jefferson Veterinary Hospital.  I took these series of pet portraits as part of the animal hospital's web redesign - instead of impersonal stock images, each pet photograph on the site is a client's pet or a pet of a staff member, and all photographs were shot around Frederick county, MD.

This portrait is of my daughter and our elderly dog, Muffin who is a samoyed and will be 14 this year.  Muffin is a trooper and is still patrolling our farm, we are lucky that my husband is a veterinarian over at Jefferson Veterinary Hospital, and hope that he can keep her going forever.

Meet Bently the dog.  I photographed him as part of an update that I've been doing with Jefferson Veterinary Hospital's website, where I've been taking pet portraits of the staff's dogs.  I've been really enjoying photographing pets and I am seriously considering adding it to one of my specialities.  As the wife of a veterinarian, I think that pet portraiture fits in my portfolio pretty nicely :D
