Assignment: Portrait of person with pet.

Now, nobody said the pet actually had to *belong* to the person... My friend Hans had just gotten this tiny chihuahua puppy, and I thought...wouldn't it be cute to photograph him with some big burly guy? Cue JohnnyP, who's big and burly and hairy and tattooed and bald...but a total teddybear. He got up quite early for me, with good humor, and laughed his way through the whole session. Seriously, one of the easiest models I've ever worked with. Fun too.
So here are 4 from the series. There are a *ton* that I love, and I'm still messing with them and trying to decide which to submit. Hope you enjoy.

In his hands it looks smaller that it really is, I wonder.

I think this is the best one, it shows the tender side of someone you wouldnt expect to have one, great job.

If you submit anything, I think you should do this one (and/or JohnnyP with puppy 4). This one because it seems almost natural (less "posed" than 2&3), and like the puppy is trying to hide from the camera, kind of like a little kid, and Johnny is trying to reassure it.

#4 also deserves it because Johnny is sort of hamming things up a little in a "Me in all my hairy glory" kind of way, and the puppy is sitting there with this "Ya. I'm with him" look on it's face.
