A few weeks ago, Beth and I volunteered our photography services to an awesome rescue event Paws for a Cause, featuring Shorty Rossi (Animal Planet’s “Pitt Boss”) presented by Hardeko and Dog Daze Pet Shop. Shorty took an overnight (aka red-eye flight) to attend the event. Throngs of people lined up for hours on end…

How many dogs do you know that can write their name in the sand? Introducing the great Gatsby… I first met Gatsby’s humans Brian and Amy while photographing Erin and Matt’s wedding. Aren’t they just the cutest… Soooo much love going on here… I’ve photographed a lot of dogs in my time, but Gatsby wins…

Gotta love teens! They inspire all of us and just give us hope for the future! :) Wonderful photos. Love the “quirky” one sooo much!
I can’t tell you how thrilled I was when Cyd of The Sweetest Occasion fame, asked me to photograph portraits of her dog Nina. Okay, I guess I can tell you… I was super thrilled! Everyone who knows me, is very aware of my dog obsession. I own three dogs myself. As if that isn’t…

I was going to point out which of these photos I like best, but when I went back through them I realized they are all striking, adorable, heartwarming.
THANKS FOR THE LINK to Cyd’s blog. It is full of good stuff.
Such beautiful shots! I was going to connect with you on Linkedin, but decided to just let you know here, how wonderfully you’ve captured the soul of Nina. We have a chocolate & and black lab, they are wonderful! Warm regards from Oregon!

Wow. That last image is amazing.
If you’ve read anything about me, in my bio section, or any of my posts, you probably know at least these two things: 1) I love photography and 2) I love dogs! So every once in a while, I get the great honor of photographing those four legged creatures and the humans that love them! …

I so agree with Noelle: the basset photo is the best! it brings an instant smile … somehow it says JOY to me. Love it.
Your dog portraits are so fantastic!
Yay! DOGS!!! How fun is that session?! Great job capturing their personalities and connection with their humans too. That’s a challenging task!
Love the labs, but my favorite is the basset in search of other things! They are all great!!
You must have had been in heaven: all those dogs!
A few weeks back, Beth and I had a super fun day photographing some family portraits for Piper, Brian, Doc, and Cooper. This day was full of lots of doggy adventure… or should I say this adventure was full of lots of doggies! I’ll reveal more when I post the rest of the images. For…

Your dog collection makes me smile :)
I’d describe it as delightful, complex (more than one breed, age, or style, and enviable (as I wish I had some of them)….LOVE THEM (and the photographs)

Wonderful images. She is precious.
Super cute shoot!
Love the straight on shot!
Of course these are awesome!!! I love watching how you take what you know and push it further to create something so beautiful. Way to go! I love them all but due to my obsession with frames I might say that one is my favorite.
Can’t wait to see the next ones!!
awesome outside snow image with the two scroll end stands!!!! ;-)))
lovely triad with faint warm color of three small images — middle one w/frame: three show splendor of artisan and her works …
then the bottom b&w portrait with dog ♥
diggin the vintage hat and trunk
All the photo’s are GREAT! Carolynn looks happy and comfortable in front of the camera. As a photographer you captured the beauty within.
ALICE!!! you are incredible….i that word does you justice! You are the most amazing person to work with. xoxoxo
Carolynn looks so beautiful and at ease in front of your camera, Alice. These are fantastic photographs! Her blog looks fun- I will be anxious to browse her site too once it’s up and running!
Its tough to choose a favorite because I’m in love with Ro, but my favorite is the single shot of Carolynn outside. I love the colors and her expression! These are great!!!
Hard to choose a favorite, but the outside shots are over the top!
Gorgeous! Amazing eyes!
Love, love, love these! I adore the one close up with the dog at the beginning of the post!!!!
Have you ever thought about doing a portrait session in the winter? If not, I think you should! While the flowers of spring, grass of summer, and colors of autumn are all beautiful, I have to say I do love me a wintry scene. With this in mind, I’m happy to share with you a…

No this isn’t a meeting about pugs…although everybody knows I love those little munchkins. PUG stands for Pictage User Group a meeting for professional photographers. Once a month, I host our Central New York PUG, and it’s always fun as well as infomative. I’m so excited to announce the super-cool-one-and-only Steve DePino will be joining…

My vote is for Big Dog like her “sister”
There seems to be a growing number of “Abbys” in my life. While in Los Angeles last week, I ran into the very sweet “Abby” that manages the apartment building I used to live in. I was thrilled when she asked me to photograph her new rescue chihuahua named Nils! Nils is adorable from every…

My trip to Los Angeles was fantastic! I got to see some of my favorite people on the planet, eat my favorite foods, and enjoy some warm (sometimes HOT) sunny weather. To top it all off, I had some awesome photo shoots! The overnight flight home was a little rough. I was pretty out of…

These are some beautiful pics! Ottis is so adorable!
Hey Nanci,
I’ve missed you! Thanks for your fun note. I’m so glad to hear you like the dino shot. It’s a subtle image, but I think it really illustrates Monkey’s love/curiosity for her little friend. :) xoxo, Alice
these are absolutely adorable photo’s. I like the photo with the dino—something about this one brings a big smile.
Having a great time in Los Angeles, and today’s job made it even greater! How lucky am I to have two dog portrait sessions in one week? Answer: Very lucky! Here is a cute favorite from the end of our shoot. After a long hard day of modeling, Nils was ready for a nap… Tomorrow,…

I’m in a little bit of weather shock today! Yesterday I was in Central New York with frost on the grass, and a forecast of snow on the way. Today, I’m in Los Angeles where the 80 plus degree weather is feeling like a a fiery inferno! After our super fun doggy portrait session, Ottis…

alice - So great to hear that 24 animals were adopted, and that so much money and even more importantly awareness was raised! Congratulations to all of the rescue groups who are making a difference!
Ruth - Hi Alice
The slide show is awesome……….. thank you guys so much……… you are terrific!!! We appreciate all you did. Plus if you would like to post, as we did on our facebook…… we raised over $9,000.00 for the rescue groups, (each group received a check for $316.00, over 24 animals were adopted, 7 new foster homes were obtained. And all the groups said that it was a great event, and they can not wait to come back next year!! We are so pleased to and can not wait to do it again!! It was well worth the lost sleep, and folks like you guys made it all possible…………. so again from the bottom of my PAW THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!!
Ruth
kelly newfield - great job, alice!
Mindy - Oh my! What beautiful photos. I bet you had the BEST time photographing all those animals! I wish I could just adopt them all!
