Great Pics = Great Pet Portraits!

I have said it before and I will say it again ... the best portraits start from really great photos. Moses was a joy to play with because his original photograph really captured his personality and at 4.7MB the resolution was huge on this image, allowing for a lot of detail. Check out a couple of his proofing samples below and then scroll down to see his original snapshot.

In the image above Moses is smiling and looking right at the camera. Check out the detail below and you will see that you can almost count every hair in his head ... that is the kind of detail that comes from shooting at a high quality setting with a real camera and then having the ability to e-mail the original image to us without allowing your e-mail program to auto-crunch the size down.

Rebecca,
It was a pleasure working with you; you did an INCREDIBLE job with Moses' portrait. Now I just need to keep it a secret until his "mommy" gets it as a birthday present in late October.
We'll let you know how it goes.
Thanks!
George (Moses' "daddy")

Rebecca - I just received my Moses artwork as my birthday present and it is incredible!! You captured him and his personality perfectly. I never knew that that pet portraits could look this good - you clearly have an exceptional talent. Thank you.
