Finnegan Update: Toronto Pet Photography

Filed under: Animals,Family Pet Photography,Textured — Tags: , , — Holly @ 2:31 pm

Finnegan is the half-brother of our cat, Alice (you can see more of her here), and he is almost seven months old, and about to become a full-fledged cat, so I went over to my sister’s to capture some shots of him.

We started off in the bedroom:

Then we moved out to the deck. Trying some ‘bokeh’ texture in this one, as I saw a photog friend using it on GooglePlus, this one also adds a bit of texture to the image, think it adds some interest to the background:

Then we escaped from the heat and moved inside, trying another ‘bokeh’ overlay with the first image:

The next time I visit for photos he’ll probably be almost fully grown, with a mane of fur around his head like Alice has. 🙂

Head Shots, Nature, Out & About: Toronto Photographer

Jessika is a friend who needed some headshots, so she dropped by for a quick shoot the other night (all of the headshots were taken with the Canon 1DMkIV + Canon 70-200 f2.8L IS lens):

A few goofy faces to have some fun, and doesn’t she have simply goregous eyes?

Out & About, Catch-Up Blog Posting: Toronto Family Photographer

This is a big catch-up blog posting, as I haven’t posted for a while!

I recently went downtown to Queen Street West with my daughter, and we found this adorable fascinator in a downstairs store on Queen Street for just $15, where almost the exact same thing was selling for $30 a half block away! It was an awesome shop, we will certainly visit again soon:

A few shots out and about in the Queen Street West alleyways:

A few weeks ago we were at the Summerhill Reservoir, and we met Gordon, who looks very much like a Golden Retriever I grew up with:

Gordon the dog

More shots of Gordon, and, yes, Noah ended up with very wet feet! Rebecca brought along her book:

I went on a photo walk with Toronto Photo Walks this past Saturday, lots of animals!

Met this cat on the way home:

The beautiful long haired cat was sitting in the front window of a home on route. The shot of the bowls was from inside a Buddhist Temple via Doors Open:

Dandelions everywhere!

I also took quite a few shots with my iPhone, but need a few more days to do something creative with them! They’ll show up soon! 🙂

(Equipment used: Canon EOS-1D MarkIV (new version of this camera is the Canon EOS-1D X Digital), Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens, and the Canon 85 f1.2L lens)

Finnegan is Growing Up!: Toronto Pet Photography

Finnegan is growing up, and is no longer a little kitten, but a young cat. So it was time for a photo update! (You can also see him here.) He looks very similar to his half-sister Alice (seen here at about the same age), but also quite different. He certainly has a boy personality! 😉

We started in the bedroom:

Lots of fun on the bed:

We were trying to get Finn to settle down, for some sleepy shots, so we tried a little snack in the kitchen:

You can’t really tell from these images, but it didn’t work! Finnegan was running around like a loon! No snoozy shots today:

More of Finnegan & a Birthday Celebration: Toronto Pet & Family Photography

My family was coming over to celebrate Noah’s birthday, so Finnegan came along too!

Finnegan at the window, you can really see his beautiful blue eyes, which are just like his half-sister Alice’s:

Alice was keeping a close eye on Finn, and Finn was keeping an eye on Alice as well:

Finn loves Alice’s toy, much more so then Alice does actually!

Natural light brings out those beautiful blue eyes!

Then it was cake time for the birthday boy:

Meanwhile Finn had a big snooze…
