Dog Portraits of a Well Trained Pup at The Bel Air Mansion in Bowie, MD

Recently I had the chance to shoot some portraits of Caylen and her pup Neff at the Bel Air Mansion in Bowie. The weather was absolutely perfect – not too hot, not too cold – and the setting couldn’t have been more beautiful.

Neff is such a good girl – super well-trained and patient, which made it a breeze to get a ton of great shots. Caylen is a professional dog trainer, and it definitely shows in Neff’s behavior. We were able to knock out the photoshoot in no time, and I was seriously impressed with how well Neff followed all of Caylen’s commands.

After our shoot, Caylen moved out West to Austin, Texas, where she now runs her dog training business, More Than Dog Training. If you’re in the area and need help with your furry friend, I highly recommend checking out her website at www.morethandogtraining.com. And be sure to follow her Facebook page for lots of helpful dog training tips and tricks. Caylen is a fantastic dog trainer and I know she’ll be able to help you and your pet in any way she can.

Overall, it was such a fun experience working with Caylen and Neff. They made for awesome subjects. I’m excited to see what the future holds for Caylen and her business, and I hope to have the chance to work with her and her furry clients again one day.

A lot of parents have an impulse to expect their c A lot of parents have an impulse to expect their child to cooperate just because mom or dad said so. And, while debatably that might be reasonable for something like putting shoes back in their cubby or climbing into bed, a portrait session is different. 

For nice photos, the kid needs to *decide* to cooperate. It doesn't much matter if a kid grimaces through the rest of their broccoli, but if a kid grimaces through the portrait session, well grimace-portraits are what you're going to get. This is why I often whisper to the adults at the start of a session "Play it cool. You can pretend to be in charge, but you're really not. That kid has absolute power to hold these photos hostage."

This little girl was so stinkin' cute. She was feeling shy when we first got started, but warmed up before long. Every kid is different, and in this case, she needed to feel a sense of autonomy and control. Bossing her around made her feel uncomfortable, and made her clam up and cling to mom, but when she was involved and asked to "help" she brightened right up. She had lots of good ideas for pictures, and with a little technical help from yours truly, she gave us some really nice portraits and was more than willing to help me make some of mine, too.
