Kids and Animals

By Jordan | Gracie, Projects

You know what actors say about working with children and animals, don’t you?  They say don’t do it, and it’s true.

 

Dog - Kids and Animals(Source)

Ever since I saw this photo of a dog’s silhouette , I have wanted to make one of our own dog, Gracie.

I am ready to go on this project, but my subject isn’t.

Our little photo session required more patience than any of us imagined.  My assistant, Mr. Spring, even got in on the act of offering treats for the perfect pose.

He’s still trying……

Notice how her posture is failing as the photo session got longer and longer.  Also, notice that the photographer’s work isn’t as sharp as it could be.  Sorry about that.  I didn’t realize that these photos would be in a blog when I took them.

Now I know why all of those Hollywood directors make the big bucks.

More treats….

Finally, this might be the one I can work with.

No animal (or humans) were injured during this process.  And even though Gracie won’t tell you, plenty of treats were distributed.

So, what do you think?  Which photo should I use to create our very own Gracie silhouette?  Please let us know.  I will be sure to let you see the finished products.

    I think Gracie was a real trooper and a very good sport– yes, this is why the Hollywood dog trainers make The Big Bucks!

    Gracie is being calmer than any of my 4 Shih Tzu would be. I think 1,3, 5, and 7 are great, It is hard to pick just one, Can you do a quartet? An Andy Warhol effect 2 over 2.
