The journey of life is sweeter when traveled with a dog!

I know I've shared a few of these images in other posts, but when I ran across that quote, it seemed the perfect topic for a throwback.

Molly just turned twelve on Labor Day, and I find it hard to believe she's been a part of my life for that long. Like so many of you who are dog lovers, we take so much for granted in that unconditional love our pets have for us.

On a trip to the vet last year, he wanted to know the secret, since Molly just doesn't slow down and has the energy of a three-year-old! It was a simple answer: she's never had people food with one exception. A couple of times a year she gets a McDonalds cheeseburger, plain. And it's incredible how she eats it - any other dog would wolf it down, but I break it into 8-10 pieces, and she lays down on the seat and waits for me to give them to her one at a time. This routine goes back to when she was a puppy, and I wanted to be able to eat a burger at the same time.

Well, it's Throwback Thursday and the perfect time to think about your business and marketing focus. The three top reasons people hire a professional photographer in the portrait/social sector goes brides, babies, and pets, all in that order. That makes a wedding photographer the perfect matchmaker extending into a couple's new life together as babies and pets come along!

So, pets are the perfect topic to add to your content for blog posts. And, with the holidays approaching, there are plenty of you who will be capturing family portraits which include the family pet! Don't forget to share them along the way on your blog and plant a few seeds for ideas with your clients.

Don't miss the opportunity to remind your readership how vital their four-legged family members are!

That's pretty impressive that a dog will wait for the cheeseburger like that. I imagine it would be really helpful to have pets at portrait sessions. Im fairly certain that a well behaved dog would lower the stress level for everyone and give the photographer a handy prop at the same time.
