Something I've not talked about much yet is that I've gotten involved in an apprentice program for Certified Professional Dog Trainer. I've been interested for quite a while, but never found a program that I liked. I met the woman I'm working with at an event and was very impressed by her dogs as well as her clients dogs, so I struck up a conversation about it and here we are. I figure at the least it will be good my photography on several levels, and in a perfect world will give me another pet related job that will keep me from relying wholly on my govt. contract work which is non-existent at the moment.
I'm also doing some promotional photography for her since she travels and lectures quite a bit.
If you saw the show Greatest American Dog, you may recognize Laurie and Andrew.
This, however, is William, one of her other dogs. I'm fond of leaving the shadows in for images like this, but if she wants to go pure white, I can do that too. The shoot was done on white seamless, but for this picture I sampled colors from his eyes and spots to make a new BG.
The rest of the proofs from the shoot: http://www.jimpoor.com/cpg/thumbnails.php?album=135
