This is Bertie, processed using the Lightroom Faded Foto preset:
She's a goofball off-camera, but so well-behaved while I was working with her.
Josie Bean is Bertie's close companion.
She's showing her rooing abilities -- she's good at it.
(Shot with the Nikon D300 using the 50mm f/1.8 lens; aperture-priority, with aperture set to f/2.8; camera chose shutter speed of 1/320 second and 1/200 second at ISO 400; center-weighted metered; shade white balance; shot in RAW.)
Is Josie Bean a lurcher? She's got some very unusual coloring!
ReplyDeleteBoth of the girls are very pretty! I really like that preset.
a good question -- i'm not sure. i'm sure camille told me but i don't recall. i hope to get another session booked with both of them.
ReplyDeletewe suspect that JoseyBean (mostly known as Bean) is a Greyhound/Whippet mix. The rescue group I got her from said she was a purebred Whippet, but she's huge for a Whippet...50 lbs! Her color has been confirmed as far as whippet color goes (while pretty rare), but she just towers over the male Whippets.
ReplyDeleteBertie spent spent several years (and over 150 races) working for her people. She is a bit shy, but a total nut! Bean had horrible separation anxiety. The day we brought Bertie home?? Pretty much gone. While Bean was used to being crated while we went to work for 3 years, she told us in no uncertain terms that she was cool, as long Bert was here. Not one issue since.
that's an incredible story. i'm very happy that bertie is such a comfort to bean.
DeleteThanks so much, Steve. It's so wonderful to see my girls looking like the princesses we believe them to be ;)
ReplyDeletethey are princesses...there's no doubt about that.
DeleteSo glad I got here late and could read what Camille wrote as I was wondering about Bean's breeding too. Very interesting how Bean and Bertie slotted together so perfectly and I love the preset on Bertie's photo. They both look like a couple of gorgeous, hardcase princesses:)
ReplyDeletethey have a relationship that just works so well.
