Finders Keepers

Sophia by Jenifer Ohlson

Sophia was "discovered" during her holiday photo shoot by local guest photographer Jen Ohlson (http://www.jenohlsonphotography.com/portrait.htm). Jen is working on a book called "Finders Keepers", about adopted dogs with a story. (Sophia's storyline? From needing therapy to giving therapy...)

As a gift to us for allowing Sophia to model for Jen she offered us a free 8x10 photo from one of the pictures taken during the shoot. This was three months ago and I still had not been able to choose a photo. My gut went for the one pictured here but when polling co-workers, and even the photographer, everyone else seemed to be drawn towards shots where Sophia's ears were at attention. I liked this one because she is so lady-like here, coy and flirtatious, even seductive.

Today I got an email from Jen asking if I had selected one yet since she was going to print one to hang at Next To Nature, our West Seattle natural pet store (Cliff, the owner/husband, is one of Sophia's favorite people). So I just went with what I wanted. Then I asked her which one she had picked to hang at the shop. Her answer?

The same one.

Now that's proof of good taste!
