Best Friends

Best friends (BFFs) come in all shapes and sizes. 

I have been very lucky as a photographer to showcase the relationships, love and respect of people and their pets.  That became clear to me as I looked back over some of my work while cleaning file storage this past week.

The bond between a horse owner and their best friend is a strong one.  There is a lot of mutual respect that happens in a horse/human relationship.  On a beautiful Fall day, I was able to capture equine BFFness at its best.

BFFs take care of each other, listen to each other, keep each other company, and share their lives.  That sharing and caring is a hallmark of very strong friendships.

I often like to capture the candid interaction of a BFF relationship.  In the photo below, this pup was a bit overwhelmed by activities in the park.  Luckily, her best friend stepped in with some comforting arms.  That's what best friends do.

Sometimes best friends are those that act on our behalf.  Like volunteers who want us to be happy, live good lives and have good homes.

I love capturing volunteers at work, being the best of friends to those that might just need a great BFF boost in their lives.

Then there are those times, when you know you have great BFFs because they take you to their favorite spot and share it with you.

BFF activities don't always have to be party-every-day events.  A simple walk, a quiet moment on a park bench where squirrel watching is what's on TV--certainly makes for lovely BFF bonding time.

Each and every one of these great BFF moments were brought to you by people who realize that, not only is having a strong relationship with their pet a valuable part of life, but documenting that relationship is a great way to keep the memory of it alive.

With that thought I have decided to take advantage of the Fall foliage once again this year and offer some BFF petastic sessions.  Sessions will run from September 15th through October 15th.  More info will be shared on my Facebook page, and my website in the near future.

Finally, our puppy Talley, has a BFF.  It's Mr. Hedgehog.  He is her best playtime buddy!

Love the candid shots! That's where the magic happens. But that beagle image ... I dunno, maybe I just have a thing for beagles.
