This weekend I had the opportunity to meet, shoot, and be shot by two lovely ladies and their dogs. I technically met them online, on Twitter! They are Meredith of &Unlimited Photography and Stacey of Cold Nose Photo.
My brother sent me a link to some of Meredith’s photographs a few months ago because she is a pet photographer and gets great shots of dogs and their owners. Who doesn’t want to spend all day looking at photos of cute dogs? I loved her style and so we started talking through tweets. I know, I know. Meredith and Stacey had already met in person and also initially met online.
It was so so so fun to hang out with other photographers. We met up at the Fells Reservation in Medford, MA. We bring Emma here quite a bit, and it was awesome for her to have some friends to play with this time!
Here is Meredith and Orvis!

I have a whole new respect for pet photographers. It’s SO hard! The pups are never looking where you want them to be looking and are usually distracted by whatever bird or squirrel is passing by. Both Stacey and Meredith have some great techniques for keeping the dog’s attention that seem to work really well! Meredith cracked me up so much because me and Emma were posing and I hear her make this sound I can only describe as a “chirp”. It definitely kept both Emma and my attention.
When you have such beautiful women in front of you, it makes the job easy! Here are a couple portraits of each of them.
