Cat Day At The Studio

Actually it wasn’t a “day” at all, more like Cat 2 minutes and 7 seconds. Joce and I decided to brave the odds and get our two furballs into the studio and update their portrait. The last time I did this was about 8 years ago and we figured since the one cat “Bogen” is getting up there in age, we might as well do it now before it’s too late. What a pure joy it was to get these two to sit still for the camera. Purring & talking, scratching and hissing. Oh the wonderful joys of photographing felines. I so look forward to when we officially launch “Cat Day” at the studio. FYI – Cat Day will be held at James Hodgins Photography when hell freezes over and turns into one giant litter box.

Out of the dozen or so images I snapped we did manage to get two that pretty well portrays our kitties. They will now be memorialized with 30 inch vertical canvas prints in our home. We are really glad we managed to get this done, as it will make us appreciate the time we still have with them both, as their lives almost came to a sudden end earlier today.

“Bogen - the old guy”

“Balou – the talker”

More dogs, and it isn’t even Dog Day.

Here are two images from our family session today (I will post some more of the family over the holidays) as I have already finished these two images for my latest Smarticle at www.shootsmarter.com. Lambo can do it all, from shake a paw to play dead. We basically wore the poor pooch out and by the end of the session he was like “yaaaa, fetch it yourself.”

Dog Day SOLD OUT! Well almost.

Fern just finished his updated business portrait for his Sudbury Real Estate site www.ferncormier.ca Consulting beforehand we knew he was wearing a blue shirt and jacket, so out came one of our blue backgrounds. We always like to match up the background color with the clothing. This makes for a well rounded studio business portrait. Although, we can also change the background and clothing color to anything we pretty well please as you can see below. Not only did Fern get a great Portrait, he also discovered that Earth tones look good on him as well.
