Finally, some more photos to show of Logan, the cutie-pie pointer who is participant of FOCStudio’s Puppy Progress Package – 3 sessions spaced apart to document the baby, teen and adult stages of doggy life.
We had our first baby shoot in early April when he was just 6 weeks old. Our second shoot was in early July.
6 weeks old looks like this:
4 months old suddenly looks rather presidential!
Oo ah. A quick interruption before we get into more Logan photos: I can’t resist adding this shot of Keira solo because it just cracks me up. She is so freaking intense, I could photograph just her all day and be thoroughly entertained. Logan was sort of running around the couch and oooo! That tail of hers was whipping and thumping angrily with disapproval. Me sticking my face in hers didn’t particularly thrill her either. After she killed Logan I was sure she was going to come for me.

OK, back to Logan.
In April, he was itty bitty in dad’s arms. In July, he barely fit in his lap.
In April, Logan burrowed his baby snout into the couch. In July, he did the same, just with a much more pronounced snout. And see how brown his eyes became!
In April, Logan’s giant toy lobster had the upper claw. In July, the mighty fell…
Logan is so grown up!
Or is he? Soon after our shoot indoors, we went out for a walk around Arnold Arboretum where Logan proceeded to do pretty much NOTHING I asked him to! For some moments there I was wondering if, at long last, this was the day where none of my shots would be in focus. Where his parents would look at these photos and declare me a fraud, tell me that I’m more suited to photographing the Loch Ness monster instead of pets (that would be awesome, actually). I was pulling uncomfortably at my neck tie. It was an already humid, sticky day – I didn’t need anything else to add to the sweat!
Teenagers!
Luckily, in between all of the goofiness, we managed to bribe a few cooperative moments out of him.
Ears as floppy as the foliage behind him.
When we got home, we tried to recreate the scene on the stairs…
Not quite the same, but it’s got a flavor all its own.
I so enjoy these Puppy Progress photo sessions and and am looking forward to seeing what changes and goofiness the 3rd – and final, 100% grown-up, sniff – session will bring. See you again soon Logan!
Sniff sniff – he looks so grown up! Look at how much more spotted he is now. And, Li, you should see how much he’s grown in the past couple of weeks since his photo shoot. He looks so dignified…until he falls over as he scratches his neck.
I think Keira is wondering when the teenager is going to start supporting himself and move out of her house :) Rebellious puppies are tricky to photograph, but the shots look great!!
He’s changed so much! So fun to see the difference.
Wonderful. I love the whiskers in the ‘floppy ears’ shot.
