Many brides have two loves. Each are tender and devoted, eager to please and full of unconditional love. Often we photograph the three of them together on their engagement shoot. The bride, groom and their dog are much like a little family and it’s fun for everyone to treat this group as one. Usually the park is the best place for this type of shoot. The pup isn’t in every shot so if there is a prearranged dog sitter there it’s better for everyone. Two other requirements, a leash and a plastic bag for the “extras” are a definite must, of course. So if your someone special has four feet and a tail, think about including them in your engagement shoot as well.

Here’s an example of Vanessa and Eddy’s day at the park. Their adorable dog was an angel, charming all who saw her.
