Piper is a young Scottish Terrier. It was so much fun photographing her but since she’s so low to the ground, I ended up spending most of my time in the grass with her! Luckily it was a semi-warm winter day. We played in the grass, she chased sticks and watched geese fly overhead. I wanted to use the newly popped out cherry blossoms as a background so I had my assistant hold her up near the tree. I thought the pink blooms made a nice background for her beautiful black coat shining in the sunlight.
