Balmedie trip a success - Mac the Lab ran his heart out and it's a big heart! What an athlete and just such a happy, good natured dog!

Balmedie session coming up this afternoon! Although cameras aren't very fond of salt water, wind, sea spray and airborne sand particles, photo sessions at the beach are always worthwhile! This was Skye at Balmedie beach nearly four years ago! I was back last year to photograph Skye's beautiful puppies too - it's genuinely so rewarding to revisit the dogs I meet in this job, as they gracefully age and go through various trials, joys, tribulations and pleasures :-) I do hope I'll get to go back again soon and meet one of the grown up puppies!

Kali enjoying the golden hour light on a later walk today when it finally cooled down a little bit! Great time of year to have your photo session - bring as many human family members as you like too - I started off with people before moving to photographing dogs and still very much enjoy it :-)

Just a couple from Fergus' session out at Ellon last weekend. A dull, overcast day with just enough hazy sunshine, which actually makes my life a little easier - no deep shadows and bright highlights! Still though, looking forward to some golden hour sessions this Summer! Fergus' whole family got involved for this session so they have a full set of beautifully made family pictures to choose from, as well as plenty of the hairiest family member :-) Do check the website if you're thinking about a family photo session this Summer - www.hairydogphotography.co.uk

Made the front page of the local paper :-D No byline, despite several assurances 🙄 Still, the online article credits every photo and no-one actually buys newspapers these days, so that'll do me...

Had a great day out at Castle Fraser yesterday for the Aberdeenshire Doodles and Poos "doodle dash" meet up. Just an amazing number of doggos, and lots of lovely folk too. Being surrounded by dogs just doesn't feel like work at all :-D Huge thanks to Vivien for having me along to take the photos!

We were delighted to welcome the Aberdeenshire Doodles & Poos Group for their Grand Meeting yesterday! 🐾

Fabulous to see so many wagging tails enjoying our walking trails! Thank you for joining us and for your support!

Thank you to Lily for this photo taken today! We had a lovely, sunny photo session at Tolohill Woods with three really gorgeous doggos. Chaotic and wonderful. Very glad to have had two helpers - makes a *huge* difference!!

So many sessions recently! The sunshine helps a lot when it comes to happy photos of dogs with their families :-) Capturing that connection between dog and owner can be tricky but when you get it, it's a wonderful thing!

Our very own Kali running wild at Pitfodels today. It's a great spot where I often take nervous dogs for photo sessions due to it being very quiet, semi-enclosed, far away from roads and also quite picturesque :-) Anyway, back to editing other people's photos now!

The new member of the Hairy Dog family is Kali! Kali is a one-eyed lab / collie cross who came from the SSPCA at the age of about five months. She's settling in nicely and completed her puppy training classes with flying colours. That's not to say she's now a model dog who behaves beautifully, as several chewed up slippers will attest to but she's full of puppy energy, enthusiasm, character and mischief. We've all lost our hearts to the new arrival and look forward to giving her the best possible life :-)

This is the best thing I've seen all week. Those of us who have been anxiously following Bear's underground adventure were all immensely relieved to see this - a wonderful, moving moment. Fantastic work by all involved.

Some kind soul has nominated Hairy Dog for the Excellence Awards and I've made the finals. After a swift Google, they seem to be genuine and on the level, requiring an actual client to nominate, so thank you, whoever you are :-)
