Adam, Morgan and Dudley Teasers










I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard during a shoot. Everything about this couple, (and their adorable pooch Dudley) makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world. My job is to capture memories, and to make some too. If that isn't a blessing, I don't know what is.

Dudley likes to pretend he is a basset hound, but in reality, he is a donkey. He is long and stubborn and... beautiful. This was my first time incorporating a pet in a family shoot and I am so glad it was with Morgan and Adam. They have the best sense of humor, the most patience and are up for anything!

Fun facts: Dudley likes bananas, trembling when meeting new people, chasing lizards and squirrels, and walking slowly on his short little legs. His ears CAN in fact be tied in a knot, he has handsome freckles on his paws, and when he tries to run sometimes he steps on his ears and face plants. (He did this twice during our shoot and I thought I would die from laughing!) Morgan and Adam are secretly superheroes capable of lifting this donkey repeatedly in the 97 degree weather and remaining absolutely gorgeous. They are the most fun.
And I can't wait to show you more!

High-five,
Shannon
