dogs are people too… | phoenix portrait photographer

Hi All,

Here are a few shots from the other day. I had the distinct pleasure of working with a wonderful couple that really love their dogs. I can easily relate as I was raised with a seemingly endless parade of dogs. I am currently dad to a 10 year old Jack Russell Terrier named “Pooch” as well as my two bi-pedal girls. Pooch is my first born and commands the respect of her two younger sisters. I can’t imagine them growing up without a dog to love. I believe that a good relationship with pets from a young age in addition to nurturing parents (or parent in my case), helps foster empathy. While there are many instances where this has not been true, I do feel that it can be a factor. Regardless of whether or not I am correct, dogs are awesome!

Sincerely,

Keith
