I had the pleasure of meeting Jordan and her two American Bulldogs, Bam and Jema, for a photoshoot at Breckinridge Park last weekend. After learning that it was the first park outing for Jema, left in the first photo, we learned what worked and what didn't. She was definitely energetic as a her bigger brother, Bam, and followed his actions as he's been out before.
If you haven't been to Breckinridge Park before, I just want to say that it's a very large park with fields, meadows, and a lot of trees. We didn't utilize the entire area because I didn't want the dogs to wear themselves halfway through the shoot.
We started out on the fields on the northwest side and worked our way into the park. I had them stop for a few formals first:
Knowing they are young, healthy dogs, I wanted Jordan and the two to make use of the fields:
Here, Jordan stopped briefly during the session for a one on one moment with Bam:
As a dog owner, this shot makes me pretty happy, because the presence of dog leashes would have interrupted the open space. It was only a few months ago that Jordan started training them without leashes -- she's pretty good!:
We stopped on the bridge for a few pictures, and I thought this candid of Bam, attentive as ever to the passers-by, exemplifies his outgoing personality:
I saw during the shoot that Bam can jump pretty high, but after seeing Jema's display here, I'd say she's more graceful:
A display of Jema and Bam knowing that "sharing is caring":
Before the photoshoot started, Jordan's mother told me she wanted a picture of her daughter and the dogs in a bluebonnet field. After some researching, I found this spot was conveniently located five minutes away, in front of the Fujitsu complex in Richardson, and made for a beautiful picture:
I cannot thank Jordan and her wonderful company enough for coming out, assisting at times, and for making this a pretty straightforward shoot. Until next time!
