When we’re planning a multi dog photo session, we’ll spend some time thinking about what you want for you final images. In the case of Lyanna, Bane, & Luca’s session at Three Chimneys, we knew we wanted a couple of photos of all three dogs together. 

But, we also wanted some photos of just Bane & Lyanna together since they live together. And, we also wanted some great images of each dog by themselves that really captures their personality. 

For Bane who is still young, I wanted you to see his silly still pupy-ish personality, so I loved this image with his tongue to the side and head tilt combined with the traditional yak fur ruff his mom had shipped all the way from Tibet!

Lyanna, is a bit more of an independent lady, so capturing her in motion as she walked along despite her mom asking for a sit is exactly right for her. 

And for Luca, I choose this image that has his sitting beautifully exactly where he was asked to show his sweet disposition. We also caught a few pictures of Luca catching treats to show off his athletic “food hound” side too!

What about dogs that don’t get along? Can you photograph them together?

What happens if your two dogs don’t necessarily love sitting super close together? Or would really prefer to not see each other at all?

Well, if I can’t actually photograph them together, we can plan for some post production magic to deliver artwork of them together!

Whether its just a little nudge closer to get them closer to cuddly in Photoshop – or actaully photographing them seperately with a plan to composite the images together, with the right plan we can make it happen!
