Remembering Puppyhood

I was cleaning out unwanted images from my archives last night when I stumbled upon some old images of Suki when she was a puppy. These are photos that I took long before I started blogging, so I think they deserve their own post today. The original jpegs were pretty flat and needed a little […]

Champi the Akita

If Suki was as big as she thinks she is, she’d probably look just like Champi, the most adorable Akita ever! We finally had a chance to meet this giant puppy over the weekend. The best way I can think to describe Champi is, well….she’s like a massive Shiba. She looks like what would happen […]

A Shiba’s Life

Life is pretty good for this Shiba Inu. The day begins on whatever soft surface she decides to sleep on through the night. “Please don’t bug me with that camera.” Next is usually some dog-centric outing, like a run along the beach: In return, she has to tolerate her photo-geek dad chasing her around with […]

There’s no better place in the city to do this than at Fort Funston, an old military outpost located at the south […]

Shake it Like a [fake] Polaroid Picture

Feeling a little bored today, so I downloaded ShakeItPhoto, an iPhone app that processes your images to look like Polaroids. Pretty cool. So I dug though my Iphone’s camera roll looking for old photos of Suki and converted them to [fake] prints: Team Suki wishes you a great weekend!

Three Shiba Stars

For me there is nothing more fun to do photographically than take pictures of a Shiba. What about taking pictures of three Shibas? Now that’s what I call an awesome afternoon. This here is the mighty Taro. Just look at his confident gaze and large stature. The Taro executive shot. Feel the power of the […]
