I photographed Evian and Eddy, two black Pug siblings, in Los Angeles recently. I met this adorable, squishy and sweet duo at their home in West Hollywood while I was in Los Angeles for my book tour with Finding Shelter.

Luckily, I got to be part of that celebration as our LA dog photography session was one of the gifts!

Read MorePhotographing dog siblings is a really special opportunity. Just like human siblings, dog siblings have their own language, their own complex relationship structure, and their own complicated kind of love. Some dogs get along perfectly with the other dogs in their family, and some just have a harder time. Whatever the situation, I love when clients commission me to photograph two dogs together.
