Dasha's Third Session

A couple of months ago we had our third and final session with Dasha, the Frenchie I first photographed last year (wow!) when she was about 3 months old. We had a beautiful March day for the shoot, and here are some of my personal favorites.

After the session I made a coffee table book from the owner’s favorite images across all three sessions. The owner chose a 10×10 hardcover book.  Up until now I’ve made 8×8’s and I must say, the extra inch all around makes a huge difference! I might have to just offer 10×10’s only from now on.

For the front cover I chose a black and white image from the second session, and for the back I chose another black and white from the first session.

The front cover is more white than black, and the back cover is more black than white – I think it made for a nice juxtaposition, and an echo of her face is also perfectly bisected down the middle.

Here is the first page, with the dates of all three sessions included:

And a behind-the-scenes. As usual, it was all hands on deck:

Happy 1st birthday Dasha! Thank you for letting be a part of your first year!
