Peek-A-Woof Meadow + Summit

“Sparkle Farkle” (aka Meadow) + Summit – Before meeting these two big, gorgeous Bernese mountain dogs, the owner, Bev had warned me about Summit. He takes his time meeting you and just “needs to be ignored at first” said Bev. Meadow, on the hand, would come right over and give love as if she were your best friend forever (oh, and her nickname is “Sparkle Farkle”) said Bev. I immediately knew who was “Sparkle Farkle” as Meadow rushed over to meet me with those big, brown Berner eyes. Summit took his time sniffling me and my bag of goodies but I was soon accepted to the “pack” and he was ready to play in the snow faster than I could say “cheese” (Okay – just for the record…I NEVER ask the dogs to say “cheese” but I might have cheese in my purse on some occasions).


I just could not stop looking at this pic - I think it is the angle of the foot with the gorgeous red in the back? I just love it ~


Summit has a unique beautiful blue eye on the left side ~


Summit in his classic pose with one paw up on a rock- Bev did you train him to "ham it up" like this?


Okay - watching 2 large Berners running towards you while you are lying on the ground is quite the experience! It kind of felt like 2 LARGE, FURRY buses were moments from plowing me over!


A quiet moment with Summit ~





I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this pic! This picture shows EXACTLY their 2 personalities to a "t". Summit is the serious, strong type and Meadow (aka Sparkle Farkle) is laughing and smiling almost saying, "That silly Summit!". If only dogs could talk ~


Meadow - in all of her Berner Beauty ~


Playing with dad in the snow ~





Whew! Meadow was pooped after the photo shoot....and so were the humans... Thank You! Woof!


The morning was filled with bounding in the snow, chasing squeaker balls and enjoying the breathtaking views of the mountains in Evergreen, Colorado. Ahhhh…a warm sunny day in the mountains with two big, gorgeous Berners and their loving owners…it doesn’t get better than this ~

Peek-A-Woof Koda & Kaia

Boisterous Koda & Mighty Kaia – I don’t think I have ever met a Bernese that was SO excited about…well…EVERYTHING! All 75 + lbs of her met me at the door ready to go. Kaia, on the other hand, decided to hang out in Amanda’s room until Koda checked out this new stranger. After everyone calmed down and sniffed every lens in my bag, Koda and Kaia were ready for their “close-ups”.

Koda was happy to consume ALL of my attention while Mighty little Kaia was brushed aside. We decided to rotate the girls so everyone had equal “red carpet” time. Our morning consisted of “borrowing” snow from the neighbor’s yard for some snow shoots (thank you people I don’t know!), globs of peanut butter (he, he) and taking a brief stroll down Old Pearl Street.

A very FAB store called “5 Green Boxes” (www.5greenboxes.com) let us use their BEAU-TI-FUL store front. Lots of turquoise & lime greens caught our eye as we perused this little “treasure” of an area near Washington Park. It was a delightful morning with Amanda & her Boisterous and Mighty ladies!

I just "happened" to be laying flat on the sidewalk to capture this gem!


Back to Old Pearl Street - I love the tails moving in unison - just waiting ~


Bernese eyebrows just jump out at you ~


I Love this pic - Kaia (with her mighty pose again) blinks as if in disgust with this "silliness" ~


The "borrowed" snow from the neighobor's yard worked great!


I could "feel" Koda brush up against Amanda's leg when she did this....sigh...such a love connection ~


And the peanut butter was flowing that morning....he, he. Koda is sticking her tongue out at us for putting it on her nose ;-) You know she loved it...


all puppy....


Kaia - LOVE THIS! Look at that mighty Kaia pose (cool hand in the window too) Love that color with her ~


Thank you Amanda, Koda & Kaia! Woof!

Sneak Peek Mile High Dog Magazine Cover

I just completed the cover shoot for the Mile High Dog Magazine cover and I PROMISED not to share the cover photo until the magazine releases in December. I did NOT (however) promise to release any photos of the adorable cover models that I took during the photo session breaks. Okay - so I have a doggie "thing" for Beignet...okay well frenchies. I didn't know a lot about the breed and now that I have met Beaujolais and Beignet (BTW - Brie, Bullion and Biscuit live with them- all frenchies) I cannot get enough of them. (Yes - my name is Jaime Rowe and I am addicted to frenchies). So...I took at few shoots of Beignet during the photo breaks at the Kanon Collective Gallery (www.kanonart.com) on Santa Fe. They have the most amazing little courtyard with these rockin red doors (I so LOVE happy, bright colors!)

Here are a few of Beignet (aka Cover Model) ~






Do you have a "doggie thing" for frenchies too?
