In the photography world, there exists an affliction known as “photographer’s child syndrome.” It runs rampant amongst the children of photographers, causing them to become acutely aware of a camera at all times. It generates a refusal to look at the camera or cooperate in any way. I have a feeling that it also affects dogs…
I used to be able to bribe her so successfully! A toy or a treat would hold her attention long enough for me to snap away. But she’s caught on to my tricks. Clearly, the neighbor going to get their mail is far more interesting than anything that I have to offer.
And another little thing that I love about my girl. Her markings. I love the black freckles around the otherwise whiteness of her face, the way that her pink and black belly reminds me of a cow, and the perfect white stripe on her head. And this… the back half of her body is all black, except for these little white patches on her back legs. It’s so lovable. It’s so her.
Christy - How precious! I know what you mean. It’s hard to get Baby Dan to look at the camera lately. He used to be so photogenic. 🙂
