Geno Steak. If you are a Philadelphian, you know of the rivalry between the two famous cheesesteak places… Geno’s and Pat’s. Now I’m not one to choose sides, but I can say that Geno’s parent’s vote is likely swayed by the fact that they met at a bar right next to Geno’s. So this french bulldog’s name is only appropriate. Besides, Geno makes a much cuter name for a frenchie than Pat, in my humble opinion.

Geno Steak. Just the name alone makes me smile. But I don’t know how anyone could keep a straight face around this irresistible dog grin…

If you can’t get enough of Geno {totally understandable, I mean… look at that face!}, check out his slideshow HERE!

Frogger Geno…

And this one may be my favorite from the session… it cracks me up every time I see it…

I couldn’t decide if I liked this image in black and white or color, so below you’ll find the black and white version… The color version can be found on my Facebook page!

This past weekend was an exciting mail day, as we received our copies of the incredible book, “Lost Souls: Found!”. Our little rockstar, Chloe, is featured on the back cover, title page, and a few other locations in the book. The book is a collection of inspirational stories from those that have adopted Boston Terriers. But this is a book that not only Boston owners will appreciate… the stories are touching and I think that any dog lover can relate to them.

The good folks at Happy Tails Books have offered to give away a copy of the book to one April Ziegler Photography blog reader… AND it will be personally pawtographed by Chloe, herself… which will, of course, make it a collector’s edition. 🙂 

Read below for contest rules…

And here it is… Chloe’s book debut…

  • Nancy - I love it! You are soo creative! I can’t wait to see the rest!

  • Joyce Huizing - Just love this pic, will you be at Fido Fest in Salem County?

  • Tanya Sharkey - What a sweet capture!

I was lucky to get to meet Nicole + Jason in April at Bullyfest. It was clear right from the start how crazy they are about their little english bulldog puppy, Millie. They wanted to do a session with Millie, so when Nicole contacted me shortly after, I was thrilled. But she had even bigger news, their session could now include a few engagement photos because Jason had proposed!

Congratulations, you two! I can’t tell you how happy I am to get to see you say “I do” in Aruba!! (Yes, this pet photographer will soon be adding destination weddings to her repertoire!)

It was hard to pick favorites, but here are a few that I particularly like. But if you want to see them all, their slideshow is HERE!
