			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Young Mr. C&#8230; he has a million different expressions, each sweeter than the next. We had the pleasure of photographing him towards the end of the summer when the grass was a deep green. As we bring winter to a close, it felt timely to share these images of this little guy, who brightens the room.</p>
<p>We started the session at the <a href="http://www.wellesleyfreelibrary.org/home/index.html" target="_blank">Wellesley Public Library</a>, because Mr. C loves books. There were also toys to play with.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-2 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017707723/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7041/7017707723_e3d1c174f9_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-2" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>Taking a break from the fun.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-3 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017707757/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7090/7017707757_acce96efaf_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-3" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>His special look for his mom.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-4 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871600584/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7104/6871600584_0cc1418109_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-4" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>Then we ventured outside the <a href="http://www.wellesleyma.gov/" target="_blank">Wellesley Town Hall</a>. With a fresh green backdrop and a comfortable spot under a tree, we played some more.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-5 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871600630/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7225/6871600630_da7d535ccd_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-5" width="512" height="640" /></a></p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-6 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871600706/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7184/6871600706_56a7a352a4_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-6" width="427" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>I love these cheeks.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-7 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017707973/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7240/7017707973_1ceacc964e_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-7" width="540" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>Storytime was enjoyed outside more than in.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-8 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871600812/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7240/6871600812_79140ee7c4_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-8" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-9 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017708069/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7194/7017708069_a621325d8e_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-9" width="427" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>He is so inquisitive; he wanted to explore the park.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-10 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871601022/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7120/6871601022_7cdbecd76f_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-10" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>When he wasn&#8217;t enjoying his favorite toys.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-11 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6871601082/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7038/6871601082_5456774f13_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-11" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-12 by Allegro Photography" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017708243/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7045/7017708243_fe4fd71d0e_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-12" width="540" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>More exploring.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-13 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017708327/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7191/7017708327_0aa7718e10_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-13" width="427" height="640" /></a></p>
<p>Probably my favorite smile (though it is really hard to pick one). I just love the twinkle in his eyes.</p>
<p><a title="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-14 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/7017708401/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7115/7017708401_c78bfb4826_z.jpg" alt="wellesley-ma-baby-portrait-14" width="427" height="640" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Junior is growing up and his family is simply growing. He has a new sister now. Of course, that meant a great chance to document his family and the ways it is changing. We joined them for a Sunday morning at their home.</p>
<p>First off, meet our superhero. Very serious.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059954567/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-4 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6069/6059954567_43dae498ec_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- super hero portrait"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505648/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"></a>And he climbs trees.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505712/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-7 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6071/6060505712_e9d5a58ee9_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- little boy climbing tree"></a></p>
<p>He can wrestle them (or hug them).</p>
<p><img src="http://allegrophotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-1-590x393.jpg" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-1" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-1" width="590" height="393" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2618" /></p>
<p>And he can fly.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505770/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-9 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6061/6060505770_cc2eda9669_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- flying from the tree"></a></p>
<p>He loves being with his family.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505648/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6084/6060505648_e7b8355e9d_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- traditional portrait but with personality" /></a></p>
<p>He watches over his little sister (or at least that&#8217;s what I like to call it).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059954529/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-2 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6081/6059954529_b76f836bf7_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- checking out his new sister" /></a></p>

<p>She&#8217;s a cute little gal.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059954743/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-10 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6184/6059954743_83258e20c6_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- sweet sleeping baby"></a></p>
<p>Itty-bitty.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059954753/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-11 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6075/6059954753_f2c1a276b2_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- tiny bits of a baby "></a></p>
<p>And sweet coy smiles.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059954775/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-12 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6195/6059954775_e516434a09_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- a coy look from baby girl"></a></p>

<p>A few more&#8230; did I mention that Junior didn&#8217;t really like to sit still? Yup, not so much. His dad was having fun playing with him.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505856/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-14 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6071/6060505856_c7d25e91af_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- dad wrangles the 4 year old boy"></a></p>
<p>A recurring look on his face. Hilarious!</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060505882/" title="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers-15 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6074/6060505882_7a2a08e7c1_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="family-portrait-wellesley-ma-photographers- little boy with his family for a photo"></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On a recent trip to <a href="http://www.ca.gov/" target="_blank">California</a>, we had the pleasure of meeting up with a couple of our past wedding clients who now have a one year old. We absolutely LOVE getting to see Allegro families grow and getting to meet the next generation. This little guy was an absolute doll. He has beautiful blue eyes like his mom and loves playing with his dad. I am so glad we had this chance to get together at a beautiful little <a href="http://www.ci.danville.ca.us/Recreation/" target="_blank">park</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://allegrophotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/baby-portraits-park-1-590x393.jpg" alt="baby-portraits-park-1" title="baby-portraits-park-1" width="590" height="393" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2611" /></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431742/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-2 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6196/6060431742_f02dcfc0b9_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- little boy holding hands with mom and dad"></a></p>
<p>The ball is a favorite toy for sure.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431826/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-4 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6187/6060431826_21f83ba418_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- with his big ball" /></a></p>
<p>Flying with daddy.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431852/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6191/6060431852_de12f98918_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- flying" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431786/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-3 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6068/6060431786_a7e48a2984_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- practicing walking with mom"></a></p>
<p>He loves being in his red wagon.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059881355/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-6 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6089/6059881355_5ca7cf6273_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- happy to be in his wagon"></a></p>
<p>Especially standing up. Oh my!</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431914/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-7 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6062/6060431914_b689b6e049_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- proud of his wagon"></a></p>
<p>&quot;When can I climb this, momma?&quot;</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059881411/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-8 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6072/6059881411_480ab4b7d7_z.jpg" width="360" height="540" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- contemplating climbing the tree"></a></p>
<p>And of course, we captured a few more traditional portraits. I especially love when mom and dad are in the photos. I know most parents want photos of their children, but years from now, the value of the photos will increase, because the children will want these photos of them with their parents.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6060431978/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-9 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6184/6060431978_ae5564b079_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- with mom and dad"></a></p>
<p>And one last fun one as our little buddy considers what mischief he can cause next.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/6059881479/" title="baby-family-portraits-park-10 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6182/6059881479_83ebd894a3_z.jpg" width="540" height="360" alt="baby-family-portraits-park- trying to go it along with mom and dad supporting in the background"></a></p>
<p>Hugs to the whole family and thank you so much for inviting us to capture these images for you! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of photographing the creative ladies of <a href="http://www.simpledetailsevents.com/" target="_blank">SD Events</a>. Their team was growing and changing and that called for a new set of photos for this talented crew. So please allow me to introduce&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.simpledetailsevents.com/about_tasha.htm" target="_blank">Tasha Bracken</a>, the founder of SD Events, she not only has vision, but she is extraordinarily calm and organized. When I work with her, I know that my job will be that much easier because she has everything covered. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5640292983/" title="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-3 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5229/5640292983_a2f561e7b4.jpg" width="333" height="500" alt="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-3" /></a></p>
<p>Next, please meet <a href="http://www.simpledetailsevents.com/about_ivy.htm" target="_blank">Ivy Finn</a>. Ivy is the newest member of the team and is known for her unexpected ideas and her enthusiasm. She has created parties from fantistically fun bar and bat mitzvahs to sophisticated charity events.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5640864000/" title="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-4 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5305/5640864000_ae445499a0.jpg" width="333" height="500" alt="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-4" /></a></p>
<p>And finally,<a href="http://www.simpledetailsevents.com/about_jessica.htm" target="_blank"> Jessica Feroli</a>. Jess is a talented event producer as well as keeping the office in tip-top shape. She loves all of the do-it-yourself projects that go along with event planning and brings her skills to the table with imagination.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5640293051/" title="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5264/5640293051_26ddcca9d9.jpg" width="333" height="500" alt="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-5" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5640292983/" title="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-3 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"></a>The three hanging out in their studio.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5640863934/" title="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-2 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5267/5640863934_3e61d60ed1.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="simple-detail-events-sd-tasha-bracken-wedding-2"></a></p>
<p>If you are looking for a planner for your next event, I would highly recommend giving these ladies a call. They are based outside <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/" target="_blank">Boston</a> and have worked around the world. They will wow you with their knowledge and inspired ideas!</p>
<p>Just to give you a taste of the excitement they can bring to an event, check out their studio. I love this space. It&#8217;s chic and modern and bold. Simply beautiful!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last spring, we celebrated this young woman&#8217;s graduation with a  portrait session on the <a href="http://mit.edu/" target="blank">MIT</a> campus, her new alma mater. She was embarking on a grand adventure, moving across the country to a new job and it just felt right to commemorate her time here in the Boston area. She is a bright, beautiful young woman with the world ahead of her. We wish her all the best in her journey!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For this family, change was part of their DNA. First the couple added their beautiful baby boy to the mix. Then they moved into a new home in <a href="http://www.belmont-ma.gov/Public_Documents/index" target="_blank">Belmont</a>, which they had custom designed. So when all of the changes were complete, it was time to have their portraits made in their new home.</p>
<p>The home offers amazingly beautiful light from oversized windows. We, of course, took advantage of that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Coming together to celebrate a very special birthday, grandma&#8217;s 75th, this family wanted to document the three generations in a beautiful portrait. They were having lunch at the <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/" target="_blank">Boston</a> <a href="http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/BostonCommon/Default.htm" target="_blank">Ritz</a> and we figured it would be the perfect place to meet. Plus we had hoped to go to the <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/freedomtrail/bostoncommon.asp" target="_blank">Commons</a> or the <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/parks/emerald/public_garden.asp" target="_blank">Public Gardens</a> if the weather cooperated. Unfortunately the weather didn&#8217;t cooperate, but fortunately the Ritz did. The staff gave us access to their <a href="http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/BostonCommon/Meetings/Default.htm" target="_blank">event spaces</a> so we would have some privacy for the portraits. Window light added the beautiful glow. But all of the warmth definitively comes from this family.</p>
<p>
To kick things off, the birthday girl&#8230;</p>

<p>Total hams. They had been asking to do this for the whole session and we were thrilled for them to finish it off with their daring feat.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thrilled to share a few photos from a fall family portrait session. We absolutely adore this crew. You can feel their warmth, their playfulness and their enjoyment  spending time together. For their portraits, we focused on the ways in which they interact.  I hope you will enjoy the hugs, the laughter, the joy of the trampoline, and the freedom of a bike ride.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The thing about being a photographer is that it is all too easy to miss documenting your own life. And even more challenging to create photos of you with your family.  We knew we wanted photos with our <a href="http://www.akc.org/breeds/giant_schnauzer/" target="_blank">Giant Schnauzer</a> Max (we have tons of images of him, and tons of him with each of us, but very few with him and both Dave and I). We also knew we were not alone in needing photos with our beloved canine baby. Amy Hawkes of <a href="http://www.clickimagery.com/" target="_blank">Click Imagery</a> is a supremely talented photographer in the Boston area, and she has a fabulous furkid, Jaxon. So we proposed a trade. </p>
<p>On one lovely afternoon in June, we ventured to <a href="http://web.wellesley.edu/web" target="_blank">Wellesley College</a>&#8216;s beautiful <a href="http://www.wellesley.edu/WCBG/Visit/Tour/arboretum.html" target="_blank">gardens</a> for family photography and then a bite to eat. And here we have a few of our faves from the session.</p>
<p>Amy and Jax, all smiles.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999086/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-2 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5173/5473999086_d1b8a739a9.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- college gardens portrait" /></a></p>
<p>Sweet moment.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999100/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-8 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5251/5473999100_15da67f0e0.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- college campus" /></a></p>
<p>Love how Jaxon looks up at Amy. So expectant and attentive.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999112/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-9 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5251/5473999112_64a6e1c45e.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- dog and owner" /></a></p>
<p>Amy has a great sense of humor. This one absolutely captures the amusement in her relationship with Jaxon.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473402149/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-10 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5171/5473402149_0c018dab35.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- furkid session" /></a></p>
<p>More smiles.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473402175/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-11 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5300/5473402175_6654fc9f89.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- happy dog and owner" /></a></p>
<p>Jaxon is a ball dog. And for those of you who have ball dogs, you understand the intensity involved.</p>
<p> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999210/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-4 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5052/5473999210_909817333e.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- ball dog getting his fave toy" /></a></p>
<p>Communicating about the ball.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999188/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-3 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5053/5473999188_a7ca804b41.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- ball dog under a tree" /></a></p>
<p>A simple portrait of Amy&#8217;s best friend.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473402253/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-5 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5098/5473402253_5c9b4d584e.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- handsome on a rock" /></a></p>
<p>Dave was fascinated with Jax&#8217;s squirrel like tail. (I imagine this was because Max didn&#8217;t have one, but I can&#8217;t be sure.)</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999270/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-12 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5099/5473999270_e5b561d295.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- dog tail" /></a></p>
<p>We left the cover of the trees for the warmth of the grasses. Jaxon has beautiful bright brown eyes.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999322/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-13 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5018/5473999322_8125760c65.jpg" width="500" height="347" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- in the brush bright eyes" /></a></p>
<p>Another thing about Amy, she&#8217;s a competitive runner and triathlete. So she and Jax often enjoy jogging together.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999436/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-6 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5291/5473999436_463933df31.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- dog and mom running" /></a></p>
<p>Oh and a super cute High 5 trick.</p>
<p>  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/allegrophotography/5473999474/" title="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer-7 by Allegro Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5172/5473999474_9cdd20b868.jpg" width="347" height="500" alt="wellesley-ma-dog-puppy-portrait-pet-photographer- high five or ten- paws in the air- furkid session- dogumentary photography" /></a></p>
<p>One last image, I think this is Dave&#8217;s favorite from the whole furkid session. So funny and whimsical.</p>
<p><img src="http://allegrophotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/wellesley-college-portrait-pet-photographer-1-590x393.jpg" alt="wellesley-college-portrait-pet-photographer-1" title="wellesley-college-portrait-pet-photographer-1" width="590" height="393" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2341" /></p>
<p>Many thanks to Amy and Jaxon for spending the afternoon with us in <a href="http://www.ci.wellesley.ma.us/" target="_blank">Wellesley</a> and being such great models. We love you guys!</p>
