Alexandria, Ohio, Pet Photography Session - Spider the Mudi / by Holly Hildreth

When I saw the forecast was going to be a high of 24 degrees, I asked Spider’s owner if she wanted to reschedule for a warmer date. She decided to keep the original date and brave the cold, and I’m so glad she did! We got a little dusting of snow the night before, and the shallow creek we photographed at had turned to ice. It made for a beautiful location! I’ve been really wanting to do some more winter-looking shoots, and I got my wish! Spider was seriously such a treat to work with. He happily did all the poses I asked for, including climbing on logs, balancing on rocks, and more. We got so many great shots.

Many owners are hesitant to book a winter shoot, as they worry that the backgrounds will look boring and drab. Well, here's proof that you can still get amazing shots in winter!
