If you've followed our blog, you know by now that we're definite dog lovers. So when May 2009 wedding clients Mindy and Sean mentioned bringing their two Chihuahuas along for their engagement portrait session at Point Defiance, we were all for it. These little guys didn't have much in the way of fur or fat (unlike our golden retriever, who unquestionably has an excess when it comes to hair), so Wendall and Nina first had to prepare for the chilly February day with their sweaters. Candid moments like these -- either human or canine -- are our specialty, so we weren't about to complain!
We explored the Japanese Garden with the dogs in tow, hitting our favorite spots at the Pagoda and in the lower garden, where we turned the dogs loose for a minute and lured them to the ground-level camera with some doggy bacon.
Having finished in the garden, we escorted the pups back to the warmth of the car and headed down to the Sound, where we made good use of both the driftwood-strewn beach and the concrete bulkhead for some more intimate shots of Mindy and Sean.
Last stop on this portrait tour: the rusted train cars at Camp 6. We love how it gives more variety to our Five Mile tour, adding a rugged look to the manicured gardens and nautral beach setting that we capture in the rest of the park.
Mindy and Sean's spring wedding will be right back where we started at the Point Defiance Pagoda!
