Freddy the Norfolk Terrier Beach Shoot
I had a really fun time at the beach a few weeks ago, meeting and photographing Freddy, the cute and spirited Norfolk Terrier. I met him and his owner at their beach house in Nahant, MA, a nubbly little “almost island” sitting out at sea. Freddy had me scuttling all about as he bounced up and down the beach. A great workout – it might as well have been 80 degrees and not the 30 degrees that it actually was!
It was a great house, a beautiful beach and a wonderful little dog.
And some behind the scenes!
The owner helping me get Freddy to stay in the chair while I make squeaky noises.
I really liked the whale!

….my favorite session of yours YET!

OMG this pet session is so cute!!! Aww I love how he turns his head to the side!!

He is SO cute. I love it when his head is cocked to the side with that “what is she doing” look. And I love how he kinda sits like a person. I rarely see dogs do that.

Hmmm Pet + Wedding Photography – what a unique combination! Do you love it when the “ring bearer” is a pup? :) These images are super cute and playful!

You captured Freddy’s personality and who he is so well. What a delightful dog. No doubt the pride of his mom. Excellent photo shoot! It made me smile : )

I’m with John – my fav FOCS session of all time!!! I’m madly in love with that first photo, but him actually sitting on his butt on the beach made me bust a chuckling gut! Awesome job, Li!

He sits like a people! I am in love!

AWWWW. What a cutie! Our lhasa Apso we had when I was a kid would “sit pretty” just like Freddies sitting in that one picture.

What a little character this gorgeous boy is. So great to see your behind the scenes too, I love to know how you get those shots. You really go to the essence of the personality of what you are shooting. These photos are pure fun.

Aw, I love the way he sits on his hind legs. What a cutie!

My 2 1/2 year old just about fell over laughing when she saw the pictures of Freddy jumping on the beach. She thinks he’s very hilarious and very cute.
