Cat Update: Toronto Pet Photography

I haven’t posted an update of all the household cats for a few months, so this is long over due! I was having fun shooting with my two brightest lenses, the Canon 50 f1.4 lens & Canon 85 f1.2L lens. I love the shallow depth of field from these two lenses, and the beautiful bokeh.

Finnegan also loves the deck, but he must be tethered, as he’s a bit too adventurous:

I love rainy days in Toronto, perfect excuse for more macro shots of rain drops (see previous rainy day photography here, here, here and here):

As I was getting ready to transfer the photos to my computer, I captured this shot of Finnegan:

The Cats Yesterday: Toronto Pet Photography

Filed under: Alice the Cat,Family Pet Photography — Tags: cat, cats, Toronto, Toronto Pet Photographer, Toronto Pet Photography — Holly @ 12:27 pm

Yesterday, along with all the snowy images I captured, I also captured a few of the cats (though mostly Finnegan!), so here’s a separate blog posting full of the household cats.

I was mostly stalking Finnegan with my camera, because he was the one moving about the condo:

He’s wondering what the heck I’m doing, following him around. Thought he looked very comical, crammed into the tight spacing on the shelf:

Zoe and Alice were just hanging out in their spots. Finnegan, exhausted from me stalking him, finally crashed on the sofa, and I went out into the snowy weather to capture wintery shots.

Cats In Toronto: Pet Photography

Filed under: Alice the Cat,Family Pet Photography — Tags: cat, cats, pet, pet photography, Toronto, Toronto Pet Photography — Holly @ 4:01 pm

Alice and I have moved into my sisters condo, with her two cats. They’re getting along fairly well, except for Zoe who doesn’t care of either Alice or Finnegan. Alice and Finnegan have the same mom, but different dads. I think they’re going to be great friends in the end. I thought it was time for some photos since it’s a nice bright day in T.O.
