Romeo and Juliet

nick — Wed, 05 May 2010 15:53:18 +0000

Not quite the love affair you would have predicted here. This party was for Romeo celebrating his second human year of life and for Juliet’s homecoming! While Romeo took an instant liking to the very young Juliet, she was not the shy demure kind and I think he learned that she was not to be taken advantage of

On the left we have romeo.. and on the right… Juliet!

I so love this sign.

Given its a dog party theres bound to be lots of sniffing and greeting.

While there was no music some guests still danced..

And the food smelled AWESOME.. quite so to this fella

And a few quick portraits..

Juliet getting TLC from her mom

And we end with her beautiful profile

SKC Dog Show Jan 2010

I was glad to be given the chance to cover the first dog show of the year(180th since it started) organized by the Singapore Kennel Club! Call it a beauty pageant for dogs but its the one place you will get to see all kinds of dog breeds. In between covering the ring action i decided to sneak in a few candids as and when i could

Wide angles and labs always go together well.

Pepper the sweet camera loving Schnauzer on the left

And of course bull dogs just cry out for some 17mm shots.. thanks to my friend who lent me the 17-40 !

Some of the back-stage shots of dogs chilling before thier turn in the ring..

Hottttt…

Jazz’s babies Tried to sneak a few candids.. they all happened to look at her as she as walking back. Open shade even in the full afternoon light still works well

And of course there will be puppies!

Ending off with two headshots..a super-model saluki…

And a “awww” faced beagle.. hard to resist that look…

Needless to say at the end of it all I was feeling like the following..

Hope you’ve enjoyed the pictures! If you recognize your dog here or remember that I might have taken your’s drop me a comment or email!

Dogathon 2009

I had the pleasure of covering Dogathon 09 organized by the Rotary Club of Tanglin. What more could you ask for than a warm sunny day with lots and lots of dogs? This was not just a walk for fun though as the benefits were going towards Noah’s Ark CARES .

The flag off!

It was a hot day..

And some dogs preferred to be ‘walked’. Those little booties are too cute!

Resting after the walk.

Thanks for viewing. Hope you all ahve a great weekend ahead!

All that Jazz…

I had the pleasure of covering the birthday party celebrations for Coco, Prince and Trixie, 3 lovely shelties belonging to Jazzmine of APAWZ It was a little crazy with the large number of shelties in the place and I guess only the ‘parents’ would have been able to recognize thier own kids I certianly had a hard time differentiating them through the viewfinder. Click all photos to enlarge!

Lucky for me my job was made easier by Jazz cause the 2 birthday girls had the prettiest collars! Heres coco in her birthday best

And of course whats a birthday without a cake? Durian based cream that was totally dog friendly!

Looks like someone couldn’t wait for a try

Prince the birthday boy enjoying his cake

And now some portraits to round it off..

And of course the obligatory group shot of her full ‘family’ Thanks to her obedience training this photo took less than 5 minutes to take!

Lastly my favorite out-take

Hope the dogs and humans had as much fun as I did!

Maad and Hungry

nick — Mon, 04 May 2009 16:10:50 +0000

To clarify, I was not insane but was a little hungry at the event known as MAAD . I was there to catch up with old friends and ended up meeting Candy who owns WhiteDogBobby. Her site is named after Bobby who sadly passed away last year on 11th September. Her 2 other dogs Hungry and Yuki were there with her at the bazaar and they were quite the show dogs Hungry especially seemed to know that he had that special charm.. My apologies to yuki for not taking enough photos of her, perhaps next time ok?

Living up to his name

The beauty shot

Getting tired..

And gone..

Be sure to check out WhiteDogBobby.com for some of her works!

Valentines with Holly part 1

nick — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 04:11:52 +0000

Last week I had the pleasure of covering another dog party over Valentine’s Day for an adorable dachie called Holly. As her mom is a dedicated volunteer of Noah’s Ark CARES , she requested that all presents be made as donations to the organization so guests could have fun and do a good deed too What her mom was not aware of though was that her friends had contacted me also and were planning on giving her a surprise present and asked me to do an album for her and her dogs.

I’m happy to report she was clueless until we sprung it on her The rest of this blog will be dedicated to the other furry happenings at the party

Picture intensive so click the link below for the full post. It was a very hot day but the dogs certainly had a fun time socializing and sniffing around! I rented a 35/1.4 for the event just too see if its suitable for my shooting style (and to fully utilize the full frame sensor!) Here are quick snaps of some of the guests whom you might recognize from an earlier post

One special guest was a dog called Batman who is born with a nervous disorder that leaves him more or less unable to coordinate his limb movement. The end result is that he moves around by wiggling his body around. His mom took care of him as a puppy and he is now 4. Tremendous amount of dedication there.

Here we have Goldie a very senoir dog who is almost blind. He still manged to have some fun though he liked to stake out the water bowl

And here he is demonstrating the wonderful bokeh of the 35/1.4 @1.8

And whats a party without food? Here is the spread of food for the dogs(except the cupcakes at the top) kindly sponsored by US Doggie Bakery. They specialize in making human-type food thats safe for your dogs to eat. Its also probably wayy healthier than commercial kibble since there are no preservatives or additives.

And of course a pink cake for the birthday girl

As you can see holly’s mom was so not expecting the double celebration.

That lady feeding holly happens to be the boss of US Doggie Bakery Holly is just interesting in that biscuit..

Thats the end of part 1 Part 2 will be up tomorrow !
