Portraits of Love: Capturing Ksheera and Her Six Adorable Dogs


When Ksheera invited me to her home for a portrait session with her beloved dogs, I knew it would be a session filled with love, laughter, and a dash of chaos. With six dogs ranging in size, breed, and personality, it was bound to be an adventure. From a majestic golden retriever to a 6-week-old chihuahua puppy named Gucci, each dog had its own unique charm that made this session unforgettable.


We kept the setup simple, using a draped background that allowed the dogs' personalities to shine through. The minimalistic approach let the focus be entirely on Ksheera and her furry family, highlighting the warmth and connection they share. Among the pack was a Biewer Yorkie, a long-haired dachshund named Ohana, a couple of mixed-breed rescues, and, of course, little Gucci, who stole everyone's heart with his tiny paws and big personality.


The session was a whirlwind of creative chaos. With so many dogs, getting everyone to sit still for the perfect shot was no easy feat. But with a few tricks up our sleeves—mainly peanut butter and an endless supply of treats—we managed to capture some truly heartwarming moments. There was a lot of tail-wagging, some playful barking, and plenty of affectionate snuggles.


Ksheera’s bond with her dogs was evident in every shot. Whether it was a candid moment of her cuddling with Ohana or a playful interaction with Gucci, the love she has for her pets came through beautifully in the photos. Despite the challenges of getting all six dogs to cooperate, the end result was a collection of portraits that perfectly encapsulate the joy and companionship that pets bring into our lives.


This session was a reminder that sometimes, it’s the simple setups and the unscripted moments that create the most meaningful images. Ksheera and her dogs were a joy to work with, and I’m thrilled to have captured their story in these photographs. It was a session full of heart, humor, and a whole lot of love.
